“…Based on our findings, one might argue whether the current positioning of detachment from work in the DISC-R Model is warranted. A recent study of Niks, Gevers, De Jonge, and Houtman (2015) showed support for the idea that the particular combination of detachment and job resources may counterbalance high job demands. A remaining question, however, is whether the off-job recovery concept of detachment from work and job resources can simultaneously moderate the relation between job demands and employee outcomes (i.e., three-way interaction).…”

“…That is, individuals who lose or fail to gain (sufficient) job resources will experience psychological distress, negative affect, and lack of motivation, so that their energy resources are depleted (Gorgievski & Hobfoll, ). When energy resources are continuously depleted, normal functioning at work will be hampered and finally mental exhaustion will set in (Niks, Gevers, De Jonge, & Houtman, ). Thus, restoration of depleted resources seems vital in improving workers' health and well‐being (Meijman & Mulder, ).…”

“…The effort expenditure of psychological accommodation is inherently related to the so‐called load reactions (e.g., higher blood pressure and fatigue) and may lead to psychological energy depletion (Meijman & Mulder, ). Load reactions can accumulate and may lead to impaired health and well‐being, unless individuals fully recover from work strain (Niks et al, ). If recovery from work strain is inadequate or insufficient, the health impairment process will wear out employee's psychological energy resources (De Jonge, Spoor, Sonnentag, Dormann, & Van den Tooren, ).…”

How are changes in exposure to job demands and job resources related to burnout and engagement? A longitudinal study among Chinese nurses and police officers

2017

This study used a person-centered approach to examine the across-time relationships between job demands and job resources on the one hand and employee well-being (burnout and work engagement) on the other. On the basis of the job demands-resources model and conservation of resources (COR) theory, increases in demands and decreases in resources across time were expected to result in unfavorable changes in well-being across time. The results of a 2-wave study among 172 nurses and 273 police officers showed several common patterns across both samples: (a) participants who experienced an increase of demands showed a significant increase in burnout, whereas participants who reported having low resources at both measurement times also showed a significant increase in burnout; (b) participants who experienced decreasing resources reported a significant increase in burnout and a significant decrease in engagement; (c) participants who were exposed to chronic low job resources in a highly demanding environment showed a significant increase in burnout; and (d) participants who were exposed to decreased job resources in a highly demanding environment showed a significant increase in burnout.

“…As argued by de Jonge, Spoor, Sonnentag, Dormann and van den Tooren (), specific job demands should match specific psychological detachment from work; for instance, emotional demands need emotional detachment to reduce psychological strain. Hence, future research could consider another specific type of off‐job recovery (e.g., cognitive, emotional or physical detachment) as a positive moderator in the relationship between job stressor and strain (Niks, de Jonge, Gevers & Houtman, ).…”

Muhamad Nasharudin, N. A., Idris, M. A., Loh, M. Y. & Tuckey, M. (2020). The role of psychological detachment in burnout and depression: A longitudinal study of Malaysian workers. Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, 61, 423-435.The current study aimed to examine the role of psychological detachment in the relationship between working conditions and burnout and depression. First, the study proposed that job demands would increase burnout after four months but not depression. Second, it proposed that psychological detachment would moderate the impact of job demands and job resources on burnout and depression. Third, it was proposed that the interaction between job demands, job resources and psychological detachment would predict burnout and depression. The longitudinal study design involved 345 workers (at both Time 1 and Time 2). The hierarchical regression analysis showed that increasing psychological detachment reduced the negative relationship between physical demands and depression four months later. In contrast, high psychological detachment increased the negative association between emotional resources and burnout, but not between emotional resources and depression. Overall, this study, in its discovery of the impact of working conditions on psychological health, has made a new contribution to psychological detachment studies by using different sub-constructs of job demands and job resources (i.e., emotional and physical) with four-month gaps, as previous studies did not address the impact within this time frame.
