To conduct an empirical test of a conceptual model in which sleep duration would have an indirect negative effect on cyber incivility at work, mediated by self-regulatory fatigue and moderated by agreeableness.
A 2-week daily diary study in which employees completed daily surveys in the mornings and at the end of the workday.
An observational study which measured sleep and work behaviors in the daily work lives of our participants.
One hundred thirty-one adults who were full-time employees and were also enrolled in a 2-year Executive Post Graduate Program at a university in India.
Participants completed a baseline survey which included agreeableness as well as demographics and person-level control variables. At 7 AM each workday, we sent participants the morning survey which included the sleep measure. At 4 PM each workday, we sent participant the end of workday survey which included measures of self-regulatory fatigue, cyber incivility, and day-level control variables. Participants completed a total of 945 morning surveys and 843 afternoon surveys.
Results supported our model. Sleep duration was negatively associated with self-regulatory fatigue, which was positively related to cyber incivility. Agreeableness moderated the relationship between sleep duration and self-regulatory fatigue, as well as the indirect effect of sleep duration on cyber incivility.
Employees have more self-regulatory fatigue and thus engage in higher levels of cyber incivility at work after a shorter night of sleep, especially if those employees are low in agreeableness.
实证检验一个概念模型,即睡眠时间通过自我调节疲劳的中介作用对工作中的网络不文明行为产生间接的负向影响,同时被宜人性所调节。
一项为期两周的每日日记研究,员工在早上和工作日结束时完成每日调查。
在印度一所大学的一项观察性研究中,测量了参与者日常工作生活中的睡眠和工作行为。
131 名全职员工,他们还参加了为期两年的高管研究生课程。
参与者完成了一项基线调查,其中包括宜人性以及人口统计学和个人水平的控制变量。在每个工作日的早上 7 点,我们向参与者发送了包括睡眠测量的早晨调查。在每个工作日的下午 4 点,我们向参与者发送了包括自我调节疲劳、网络不文明行为和日水平控制变量的下班调查。参与者共完成了 945 次早晨调查和 843 次下午调查。
结果支持我们的模型。睡眠时间与自我调节疲劳呈负相关,自我调节疲劳与网络不文明行为呈正相关。宜人性调节了睡眠时间与自我调节疲劳之间的关系,以及睡眠时间对网络不文明行为的间接影响。
员工在睡眠时间较短的情况下,自我调节疲劳程度更高,因此在工作中表现出更高水平的网络不文明行为,尤其是那些宜人性较低的员工。
