Abstract
The current study construes the relation between job resources (such as job autonomy, skill utilization, and variety) and mental health as a reciprocal process. Following conservation of resources theory (S. E. Hobfoll, 1989), the author expected job resources to have a positive effect on mental health. Poor mental health was assumed to impede workers' attempts to maintain or enhance their job resources either by changing the content of their jobs or attempting to find another (less distressing) job. Longitudinal data from a representative sample of 699 Dutch youth were analyzed with analysis of variance and covariance structure modeling. The results provided good support for the proposition that job resources and mental health mutually influence each other. Limitations and implications of the study are discussed.
本研究将工作资源(如工作自主性、技能运用和多样性)与心理健康之间的关系解释为一个相互作用的过程。根据资源守恒理论(S. E. Hobfoll, 1989)，作者期望工作资源对心理健康有积极的影响。人们认为，不良的心理健康状况阻碍了工人通过改变工作内容或试图找到另一份(不那么痛苦的)工作来维持或增加工作资源的努力。采用方差分析和协方差结构模型对699名荷兰青年代表性样本的纵向数据进行分析。研究结果为职业资源与心理健康相互影响的命题提供了很好的支持。讨论了本研究的局限性和意义。
