This study investigates how a preference for multitasking serves as a resource toward mitigating emotional exhaustion through the mediating role of work-school facilitation. Utilizing conservation of resources (COR) theory, we utilized a sample of 153 working students in a time-lagged study to examine the relationship between these variables. Results suggest that polychronicity serves as a valuable resource toward balancing the simultaneous needs of work and school, and ultimately, decreasing academic emotional exhaustion. The findings presented in this study further advance scholarship in this domain by highlighting our understanding of polychronicity as an individual difference variable in facilitating role balance within the school-work domain. Practical implications and limitations are discussed.
本研究探讨了对多任务处理的偏好如何通过工作-学业促进的中介作用,成为缓解情绪耗竭的一种资源。利用资源守恒(COR)理论,我们在一项时间滞后研究中对153名在职学生进行了抽样,以检验这些变量之间的关系。结果表明,多元时间观是平衡工作和学业同时需求、最终减少学业情绪耗竭的宝贵资源。本研究的结果通过强调我们对多元时间观作为促进工作-学业领域角色平衡的个体差异变量的理解,进一步推动了该领域的学术研究。文中还讨论了实际意义和局限性。
