The aim of the study is to investigate the role of chronotype for work engagement in middle age.
We used data from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 study ( N = 5341) to analyze associations of self-reported chronotype (morning, intermediate, and evening type) with work engagement and its dimensions (vigor, dedication, absorption). We conducted multivariate analyses of variance to examine whether work schedule or sleep problems moderate these associations.
Evening types showed lower scores in work engagement and its dimensions than intermediate and morning types, even when work schedule and sleep problems were controlled. Sleep problems emphasized the chronotype-work engagement and chronotype-dedication linkages.
Chronotype may play a role in employees' work engagement. In addition, sleep problems seem relevant in terms of chronotype-work engagement linkage.
本研究旨在探讨中老年人群的昼夜型与工作投入的关系。
我们使用了来自芬兰北部出生队列研究 1966 年的研究数据（N=5341），分析了自我报告的昼夜型（晨型、中间型和晚型）与工作投入及其维度（活力、奉献、专注）的关系。我们采用多变量方差分析来检验工作时间表或睡眠问题是否调节这些关联。
即使控制了工作时间表和睡眠问题，晚型人群在工作投入及其维度上的得分均低于中间型和晨型人群。睡眠问题强调了昼夜型与工作投入和奉献的关联。
昼夜型可能在员工的工作投入中发挥作用。此外，睡眠问题似乎与昼夜型与工作投入的关联有关。
