Abstract

ABSTRACT We investigated the Psychosocial Safety Climate (PSC) construct and its role in attenuating the negative effects of job demands (i.e. emotional and psychological) on psychological health (distress, emotional exhaustion, and depression). In particular, we used composition theory to understand how organisational PSC could be derived from individual perceptions of PSC. We introduce a relatively new construct, PSC Ideal, which combines PSC level and dispersion (variability; SD). We expected that the attenuating role would be strongest when organisational PSC Ideal was high; high (on level) and strong (less variability). Statistically, PSC Ideal implies taking account of PSC Level and its variability simultaneously. A hierarchical sample of 41 organisations with 495 participants was analysed from Australian Workplace Barometer data. In four out of six analyses, PSC Ideal significantly moderated the effects of job demands (particularly emotional demands) on psychological health (emotional exhaustion, psychological distress, depression). The promising moderation role of PSC Ideal implies that the disruption of the job demands and poor psychological health relationship requires consideration of PSC levels and strength in combination, rather than level alone. Theoretical and practical recommendations highlight the role of PSC Ideal in ameliorating and preventing the negative impact of work demands.

通过镜头的PSC色散组成模型:理想的PSC作为高而强的PSC信号的有益效果

摘要：我们研究了心理社会安全氛围（PSC）结构及其在减轻工作需求（即情绪和心理）对心理健康（痛苦、情绪衰竭和抑郁）的负面影响方面的作用。特别是，我们使用组合理论来理解组织PSC是如何从个人对PSC的感知中得出的。我们引入了一个相对较新的结构，PSC理想，它结合了PSC水平和分散性（可变性；SD）。我们预计，当组织PSC理想较高时，衰减作用将最强；高（水平）和强（可变性较小）。从统计学上讲，PSC理想意味着同时考虑PSC水平及其可变性。根据澳大利亚工作场所气压计数据，对41个组织的495名参与者进行了分层抽样分析。在六分之四的分析中，PSC Ideal显著调节了工作需求（尤其是情感需求）对心理健康（情绪衰竭、心理困扰、抑郁）的影响。PSC理想的有希望的调节作用意味着，工作需求的中断和不良的心理健康关系需要综合考虑PSC水平和强度，而不是单独考虑水平。理论和实践建议强调了PSC Ideal在改善和防止工作需求的负面影响方面的作用。

期刊介绍： Work & Stress is an international, multidisciplinary quarterly presenting high-quality papers concerned with the psychological, social and organizational aspects of occupational health and well-being, and stress and safety management. It is published in association with the European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology. The journal publishes empirical reports, scholarly reviews and theoretical papers. It is directed at occupational health psychologists, work and organizational psychologists, those involved with organizational development, and all concerned with the interplay of work, health and organisations. Research published in Work & Stress relates psychologically salient features of the work environment to their psychological, behavioural and health consequences, focusing on the underlying psychological processes. The journal has become a natural home for research on the work-family interface, social relations at work (including topics such as bullying and conflict at work, leadership and organizational support), workplace interventions and reorganizations, and dimensions and outcomes of worker stress and well-being. Such dimensions and outcomes, both positive and negative, include stress, burnout, sickness absence, work motivation, work engagement and work performance. Of course, submissions addressing other topics in occupational health psychology are also welcomed.
