“…The most unanticipated finding in the current study was the mediating effect of job satisfaction on the association between group cohesion and quality of nursing handovers among psychiatric nurses, which suggests that group cohesion not only directly influences the quality of nursing handovers but also indirectly the quality of nursing handovers via job satisfaction. Prior surveys have revealed an association between group cohesion and job satisfaction; in particular, group cohesion is beneficial to nurses, both in terms of job satisfaction [ 42 ]. Other studies have shown that nurses participate in power-sharing activities, foster a collaborative work environment, and demonstrate greater job satisfaction.…”

Background Nursing handovers are a critical component of patient safety. Researchers have performed many primary studies in this field, mainly reporting findings from changes in nursing handover patterns. However, few quantitative studies have explored the factors that influence handover quality. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the quality of handovers and explore the associations between handover quality, job satisfaction, and group cohesion among psychiatric nurses. Methods This cross-sectional study included 186 registered psychiatric nurses from a Chinese hospital, who responded to the Handover Evaluation Scale, McCloskey/Mueller Satisfaction Scale, and Group Cohesion Scale. Bootstrap analyses were used to evaluate the mediating effect between variables. Results The average item score for handover quality was (5.85 ± 1.14), and job satisfaction and group cohesion could predict the variance of handover quality. Job satisfaction could partially mediate between group cohesion and handover quality, and the value of the mediating effect was 45.77%. Conclusion The quality of psychiatric nursing handovers has enhanced space. Thus, hospital managers should take various measures to strengthen group cohesion and promote job satisfaction, both of which help improve the quality of psychiatric nursing handovers.

“…It has been found that positive emotions make employees stay optimistic and enthusiastic, energetic and confident in their work, active in accomplishing goals and tasks, and improve job performance (Ouweneel et al, 2012). Therefore, positive emotions have a significant positive effect on job performance (Yavas et al, 2013;Im et al, 2018;Reizer et al, 2019).…”

“…Job performance refers to behaviors and results that employees show in their work and are closely related to their goals (Rich et al, 2010). Employees' emotions have a significant impact on their job performance (Grobelna, 2019;Moin et al, 2020), such as negative emotions like anger and sadness, can reduce employees' job performance (Rispens and Demerouti, 2016;Saulnier et al, 2020), and positive emotions, such as happiness and hope, can increase performance (Yavas et al, 2013;Im et al, 2018). However, with the acceleration of competition, excessive mental stress and emotional exhaustion have seriously affected employees' performance (Janssen et al, 2020;Tome and van der Vaart, 2020), and it is more prominent for employees in rapidly developing Chinese organizations.…”

The Impact of Emotional Leadership on Subordinates' Job Performance: Mediation of Positive Emotions and Moderation of Susceptibility to Positive Emotions

et al. 2022

Employees' emotions have an important effect on their job performance, thus leaders can influence subordinates' emotions through emotional contagion and emotional appeal and ultimately affect their job performance. Based on the affective events theory, this study examines the impact of emotional leadership on the subordinates' job performance, the mediating role of subordinates' positive emotions, and the moderating role of susceptibility to positive emotion. Hierarchical regression analysis of 362 valid questionnaires showed that: (1) emotional leadership has a significant positive effect on subordinates' job performance; (2) subordinates' positive emotion partially mediated the relationship between emotional leadership and subordinates' job performance; (3) subordinates' susceptibility to positive emotion positively moderated the relationship between emotional leadership and positive emotions, i.e., the higher the subordinates' susceptibility to positive emotion, the greater the effect of emotional leadership on their positive emotions. This study validates affective events theory, deepens the understanding of the influence mechanism and boundary conditions of emotional leadership on subordinates' job performance, and provides some references for employee performance management.

“…The strength of employee volunteerism creates self-internationalisation of a volunteer identity, which increases the firm’s quality of programmes and projects (van Schie et al, 2019 ). The internationalisation breeds benefits, including the improvement of pride and trust (Im & Chung, 2018 ) and happiness and cohesion (Im et al, 2018 ). It is argued that CSR and employee volunteering affect consumers’ behaviour towards product consumption (Jin et al, 2017 ).…”

This study examines employee volunteerism’s effect in preventing workforce reduction and reducing product quality issues in India. The study used the social identity theory to explore the relationship between employee volunteerism and workforce reduction and product quality issues. A sample size of 800 firm-year observations between 2010 and 2019 was utilised. Descriptive analysis, probit regression and panel probit regression were employed for data interpretation. The study shows that employee volunteerism does not prevent but instead increases workforce reduction of listed firms in an emerging economy. The research also shows that employee volunteerism is insignificant in reducing product quality issues.
