Abstract

Healthcare professionals sacrifice their sleep for increased patient care. However, this could be detrimental to their selves and the quality of healthcare service. This study used the Conservation of Resources Theory (COR) to examine the integration between the workaholic tendency of healthcare professionals and their daily sleep deprivation to determine the extent of their self-balance. The researchers used a time-lag design to measure the workaholic tendency of healthcare professionals (Total = 422 of 282 doctors and 140 nurses), observed their sleep patterns over one working week, and obtained their ratings of self-life balance. This study revealed that the relationship between workaholism and sleep deprivation and the relation between sleep deprivation and work-self balance was significant for doctors only. However, the mediating role of daily sleep deprivation between workaholism and self-balance was non-significant. This study offers some practical implications by highlighting the positive role of work and the negative role of daily sleep deprivation in maintaining self-balance for healthcare professionals.

结合工作与睡眠，了解医护人员的工作与生活平衡：资源保护视角。

医护人员牺牲自己的睡眠来增加对病人的护理。然而，这可能会对他们自身和医疗服务质量造成损害。本研究采用资源保护理论（COR）来研究医护人员的工作狂倾向与日常睡眠不足之间的结合，以确定他们的自我平衡程度。研究人员采用时滞设计测量了医护人员的工作狂倾向（共计 422 人，其中医生 282 人，护士 140 人），观察了他们一个工作周的睡眠模式，并获得了他们对自我生活平衡的评分。研究结果显示，工作狂与睡眠不足之间的关系以及睡眠不足与工作-自我平衡之间的关系仅对医生有显著影响。然而，日常睡眠不足在工作狂与自我平衡之间的中介作用并不显著。这项研究强调了工作的积极作用和日常睡眠不足对医护专业人员保持自我平衡的消极作用，具有一定的现实意义。
