Abstract
Objective: The study aims to examine the relationship between daily negative affect and rumination in the context of work and to verify their mediating roles in the process of burnout.
Design: A classic longitudinal design with two measurement points for burnout was combined with 10 daily online assessments of negative affect and rumination among 235 civil servants.
Results: A random intercept cross-lagged panel model was implemented. Carryover, cross-lagged, and same-day relationships between work-related negative affect and rumination were analysed from a within-person perspective. The results did not confirm reproducible carryover and cross-lagged effects. The only significant positive associations were found for same-day relationships. At the between-person level, a mediation model of the random intercepts of negative affect and rumination between two burnout measurements was tested. Negative affect was positively related to rumination; however, only negative affect partially mediated the relationship between burnout levels over a four-month interval.
Conclusions: The study clarifies the role of rumination in the process of job burnout. First, after removing stable interpersonal differences, reciprocal effects between daily negative affect and daily rumination could not be confirmed. Second, work-related affect may longitudinally play a greater role in burnout exacerbation than ruminating on work.
期刊介绍：
This journal provides a forum for scientific, theoretically important, and clinically significant research reports and conceptual contributions. It deals with experimental and field studies on anxiety dimensions and stress and coping processes, but also with related topics such as the antecedents and consequences of stress and emotion. We also encourage submissions contributing to the understanding of the relationship between psychological and physiological processes, specific for stress and anxiety. Manuscripts should report novel findings that are of interest to an international readership. While the journal is open to a diversity of articles.
