Although studies suggest that cancer survivors face workplace obstacles, to date there has been little empirical research regarding the personal and environmental factors that can help cancer survivors adjust to work. The purpose of this study was to examine how working survivors' resilience and job meaningfulness were related to their well-being outcomes, including lower cancer-related intrusive thoughts, fatigue, and presenteeism.
We recruited 200 full-time employed cancer survivors from online participant panels using Qualtrics. Participants responded to an online survey that measured their resilience, job meaningfulness, job-related psychological distress, and well-being outcomes. We conducted descriptive statistical analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and moderated mediated analysis to examine the psychological process in which resilience and job meaning are associated with cancer survivors' mental health and work outcomes. : The relationship between cancer survivors' resilience and their well-being outcomes depended on job meaningfulness. For survivors whose jobs were not highly meaningful, their resilience was related to reduced job-related psychological distress, which, in turn, was related to lower intrusive thoughts, fatigue, and presenteeism. For survivors with highly meaningful jobs, they did not need to rely on resilience to protect them from workplace psychological distress and other negative outcomes. : It is important for working cancer survivors to develop resilience, especially when they do not perceive their work as highly meaningful. Successful resilience-building interventions can buffer the negative impact of low job meaningfulness and help working survivors achieve better outcomes. In addition, organizations can actively help enrich survivors' jobs to increase perceived meaningfulness.
尽管研究表明癌症幸存者面临工作场所的障碍，但迄今为止，关于有助于癌症幸存者适应工作的个人和环境因素的实证研究很少。本研究的目的是探讨在职幸存者的复原力和工作意义如何与他们的幸福结果相关，包括减少与癌症相关的侵入性思维、疲劳和出勤主义。
我们使用Qualtrics从在线参与者小组中招募了200名全职受雇的癌症幸存者。参与者对一项在线调查做出回应，该调查测量了他们的复原力、工作意义、与工作相关的心理困扰和幸福结果。我们进行了描述性统计分析、验证性因素分析和调节中介分析，以检验复原力和工作意义与癌症幸存者心理健康和工作结果相关的心理过程。：癌症幸存者的复原力与其幸福结果之间的关系取决于工作意义。对于那些工作意义不高的幸存者来说，他们的复原力与减少与工作相关的心理困扰有关，而这反过来又与减少侵入性思维、疲劳和出勤主义有关。对于那些工作意义非常高的幸存者来说，他们不需要依靠复原力来保护自己免受工作场所心理困扰和其他负面结果的影响。：对于在职癌症幸存者来说，培养复原力很重要，尤其是当他们认为自己的工作意义不高时。成功的复原力建设干预措施可以缓冲低工作意义的负面影响，并帮助在职幸存者取得更好的结果。此外，组织可以积极帮助丰富幸存者的工作内容，以增加感知到的意义。
