Commuting demands a considerable amount of time from a worker's daytime. Numerous studies have shown the relationship between commuting and mood, and even job performance. Contradictory findings are also present in the literature regarding the association between commuting, mood and job performance. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to examine the association between commuting, negative upon arrival at work and individual job performance, given the special focus on the mediating role of negative mood. Two hundred and twenty-six participants were recruited via snowball sampling. Participants were asked to answer questions about commute duration and distance, to rate their mood upon arrival at work and to fill in the individual work performance questionnaire. Results showed that commute duration and distance was associated with job performance through mood upon arrival at work. It is believed that this study provides valuable information regarding the mediating role of mood upon arrival at work.
通勤需要工人白天花费相当多的时间。许多研究表明了通勤与情绪,甚至与工作表现之间的关系。关于通勤、情绪和工作表现之间的关联,文献中也存在相互矛盾的发现。因此,本研究的目的是考察在特别关注负面情绪的中介作用的情况下,通勤、工作时的负面情绪与个体工作表现之间的关系。通过滚雪球抽样,共招募了 226 名参与者。要求参与者回答有关通勤时间和距离的问题,评估他们到达工作时的情绪,并填写个人工作表现问卷。结果表明,通勤时间和距离通过到达工作时的情绪与工作表现相关。本研究认为,这为工作时的情绪中介作用提供了有价值的信息。
