Psychosocial stressors appear to alter the state of mind and adoption of overeating behaviour, resulting in high body mass index. This study was conducted to determine the magnitude of psychosocial stressors on male employees' well-being.
This study used secondary data retrieved from a cross-sectional study involving 492 male employees' completed data. Eligible participants completed validated questionnaires of the Psychosocial Safety Climate (PSC-12) scale, short version Demand Induced Strain Compensation (DISQ 2.1), Oldenburg Burnout Inventory - Emotional Exhaustion domain and the Three Eating Factor Questionnaire (TEFQ) -Uncontrolled Eating domain; assessing psychosocial safety climate, job demands and job resources, emotional exhaustion, and uncontrolled eating behaviour, respectively. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated based on weight and height. The research statistical model was tested by two-steps of assessment replicating partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM).
The results show that psychosocial stressors (psychosocial safety climate, job demands and job resources) had significant effects on emotional exhaustion (β= -0.149, p=0.004; β= 0.223, p<0.001; β= -0.127, p=0.013). Emotional exhaustion predicted by work stressors may act as a chain reaction which could result in uncontrolled eating (β=0.138, p=0.005) and high BMI (β=0.185, p<0.001). Emotional exhaustion does mediate the relationship between PSC and uncontrolled eating behaviour (β= -0.021 [95% boot CI bias corrected: -0.048, -0.002]).
The psychosocial stressors at work are significant factors for emotional exhaustion, which further signifies the positive effect on uncontrolled eating behaviour and BMI among Malaysian male employees.
社会心理压力源似乎会改变心境并导致暴饮暴食行为，从而导致高体重指数。本研究旨在确定社会心理压力源对男性员工幸福感的影响程度。
本研究使用了从一项横断面研究中检索到的二手数据，该横断面研究涉及492名男性员工的完整数据。符合条件的参与者完成了社会心理安全气候（PSC-12）量表、简短版需求诱导应变补偿（DISQ 2.1）、奥尔登堡倦怠量表-情绪耗竭领域以及三因素饮食问卷（TEFQ）-无节制饮食领域的有效问卷；分别评估社会心理安全气候、工作需求和工作资源、情绪耗竭以及无节制饮食行为。根据体重和身高计算体重指数（BMI）。研究统计模型通过重复偏最小二乘结构方程建模（PLS-SEM）的两步评估进行检验。
结果表明，社会心理压力源（社会心理安全气候、工作需求和工作资源）对情绪耗竭有显著影响（β=-0.149，p=0.004；β=0.223，p<0.001；β=-0.127，p=0.013）。工作压力源预测的情绪耗竭可能会引发连锁反应，导致无节制饮食（β=0.138，p=0.005）和高BMI（β=0.185，p<0.001）。情绪耗竭确实介导了PSC与无节制饮食行为之间的关系（β=-0.021 [95%自抽样置信区间偏差校正：-0.048，-0.002]）。
工作中的社会心理压力源是导致情绪耗竭的重要因素，这进一步表明其对马来西亚男性员工的无节制饮食行为和BMI有积极影响。
