Recent research has identified the value of distinguishing between employee's appraisals of their work-based challenge, hindrance, and threat job demands, and of how employee's future-oriented coping is associated with key occupational outcomes. The current study extends this research by assessing the extent to which employee's proactive and preventive coping techniques each directly and indirectly predicted challenge, hindrance and threat appraisals. Utilizing a daily diary design, 89 undergraduate students completed five daily surveys focused on a common future stressor. Results suggested daily appraisals do not change as much as expected, with only challenge appraisals reducing across the 5-day period. However, both proactive and preventive coping moderated daily stress appraisals, such that when proactive coping was high, challenge appraisals increased and hindrance appraisals decreased. Similarly, preventive coping appeared to reduce both hindrance and threat appraisals. Theoretical and practical implications of the multi-level and dynamic nature of appraisals and future-oriented coping are discussed.
最近的研究已经确定了区分员工对工作中的挑战、障碍和威胁的评价，以及员工面向未来的应对方式与关键职业结果之间的联系的价值。本研究通过评估员工的主动和预防性应对技巧如何直接和间接预测挑战、障碍和威胁的评价，扩展了这一研究。利用每日日记设计，89 名本科学生完成了五次每日调查，重点关注一个共同的未来压力源。结果表明，日常评价并没有像预期的那样变化很大，只有挑战评价在 5 天内有所降低。然而，主动和预防性应对都调节了日常压力评价，当主动应对较高时，挑战评价增加，障碍评价减少。同样，预防性应对似乎也降低了障碍和威胁评价。讨论了评价和面向未来的应对的多层次和动态性质的理论和实践意义。
