Abstract. Control over business trips has been considered an important resource for frequent business travelers. Building on past research and conservation of resources theory, this two-wave study among 210 frequent business travelers investigated whether work meaning moderates the relationship between two kinds of control, job control and trip-scheduling control, and two important work outcomes, work satisfaction and perceived task performance. Hierarchical regression analyses showed that when work meaning was lower, trip-scheduling control was negatively related to work satisfaction and perceived task performance 6 months later. However, there were no significant interactions between job control and work meaning on the two outcomes. Findings support the reasoning that trip-scheduling control is of specific importance in the context of business travel and that this particular kind of control is not per se positive but contingent on work meaning and thus the larger context.

Abstract. Emerging technologies at work encourage the collection and storage of large amounts of data. However, these vast quantities of data are likely to impair efficient work decisions by employees over time, with negative consequences for the organization. As human attention increasingly represents the scarce resource at work, the present paper focuses on a mechanism of attentional control at work – namely, intentionally forgetting unwanted and outdated internal (e. g., knowledge) and external (e. g., digital objects) information. The purpose of this paper is threefold. Based on a short review of the research on intentional forgetting, a prototypical conceptualization of an interactive assistive system (Dare2Del, cognitive companion) is provided, which should support employees in temporally ignoring or permanently deleting outdated information. Then, we completed a critical incident study to examine why and when employees might want to forget information at work, and to identify in which working situations an assistive system should be particularly helpful.

Zusammenfassung. Wie hängen berufliche Gratifikationskrisen, arbeitsbezogene Erschöpfung und die Wahrscheinlichkeit gesundheitsbedingter Frühberentungen bei Polizisten zusammen? Anhand der Daten eines Gesundheitsmonitorings von N = 811 Polizisten wurde dieser Frage mittels hierarchischer linearer und ordinaler Regressionsanalysen nachgegangen. Die Polizisten gaben im Vergleich zur deutschen Erwerbsbevölkerung und auch zu anderen Polizeistichproben höhere Werte beruflicher Gratifikationskrisen an. Berufliche Gratifikationskrisen und die Subdimensionen Verausgabung, Wertschätzung, berufliche Entwicklung, Konstanz der Arbeitssituation sowie Verausgabungsbereitschaft leisteten signifikante Vorhersagebeiträge zur arbeitsbezogenen Erschöpfung und der subjektiven Wahrscheinlichkeit einer gesundheitsbedingten Frühberentung, auch unter Kontrolle weiterer beeinflussender Variablen (Alter, chronische Erkrankung, Einsatzbeteiligung, Beschäftigungsort). Die Ergebnisse geben Hinweise für mögliche Interventionen zur Verminderung beruflicher Gratifikationskrisen und zur Vorbeugung von Arbeitsausfällen aufgrund von Erschöpfung und Frühberentungen.

Abstract. The Instrument for Stress-Oriented Task Analysis (ISTA, Instrument zur stressbezogenen Taetigkeitsanalyse) is a German, action–theory-based instrument to measure stressors and resources in the workplace. In order to examine the psychometric properties of the ISTA variables, we conducted a meta-analysis using the job demands–resources (JD-R) model for construct validation of the instrument. The meta-analysis consisted of a maximum of 58 independent data sets in 51 studies, of which 26 have been published. Based on 565 individual means and standard deviations, 506 reliabilities, and 4,730 correlation coefficients, meta-analytical information was computed. Overall, the instrument showed good psychometric properties: The scale means were close to the theoretical mean of the scales and reliabilities were acceptable to good. The validation hypotheses were examined by analyzing the correlations of ISTA variables (stressors and resources) with psychological strain and well-being. Our hypotheses were largely supported by the data: Stressors were positively related to strain and mostly negatively related to well-being, while resources were mostly positively related to well-being and partly negatively related to strain. Moderation analyses revealed that the two versions of the ISTA, the publication status, the proportion of women, and the industrial sector of the samples had little systematic impact on the means and reliabilities of most ISTA scales as well as on correlations between ISTA scales and of ISTA scales with scales measuring psychological strain and well-being.
摘要压力导向任务分析仪器(ISTA, Instrument zur stressbezogenen taetigkeitsanalyze)是一种基于行动理论的德国工具，用于测量工作场所的压力源和资源。为了检验ISTA变量的心理测量特性，我们使用工作需求-资源(JD-R)模型进行了meta分析，以对该工具进行结构验证。荟萃分析包括51项研究中最多58个独立数据集，其中26项已发表。基于565个个体均值和标准差、506个信度和4730个相关系数，计算了meta分析信息。总体而言，该量表显示出良好的心理测量特性:量表均值接近理论均值，信度可接受至良好。通过分析ISTA变量(压力源和资源)与心理压力和幸福感的相关性来检验验证假设。我们的假设在很大程度上得到了数据的支持:压力源与压力呈正相关，与幸福感呈负相关，而资源与幸福感呈正相关，与压力呈部分负相关。适度分析表明，两个版本的ISTA、出版状况、女性比例和样本的工业部门对大多数ISTA量表的均值和信度以及ISTA量表与测量心理压力和幸福感的量表之间的相关性几乎没有系统影响。

Zusammenfassung. In der Sozialpsychologie wird eine Reihe von Kommunikationsstrategien beschrieben, die den Zweck verfolgen, Einstellung oder Verhalten einer Person in Richtung der Ziele des Kommunikators zu verändern. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit haben in der Persuasionsforschung die sog. Compliance-Techniken erfahren ( Cialdini, 2013 ), die eine Person dazu bewegen sollen, der Bitte einer anderen Person nachzukommen. Drei dieser Gesprächstechniken, die Foot-in-the-Door-Technik (FITD), die Door-in-the-Face-Technik (DITF) und die Hard-to-Get-Technik (HTG), werden hier auf ein neues Anwendungsfeld übertragen, nämlich auf die telefonische Direktansprache von Kandidaten bei der Führungskräftevermittlung. In einem Feldexperiment mit insgesamt 128 potenziellen Jobkandidaten wird überprüft, ob die drei genannten Gesprächstechniken erfolgreicher sind als eine Standard-Ansprache, welche keinen Gebrauch von diesen Techniken macht. Der Vorteil der Compliance-Techniken gegenüber der Standard-Ansprache ist insgesamt betrachtet von mittlerer Stärke. Einzeln betrachtet erzeugt die FITD-Technik das höchste Interesse an dem Jobangebot, gefolgt von der HTG-Technik und der DITF-Technik. Die letztgenannte Technik erbringt keinen signifikant höheren Persuasionserfolg als die Standard-Ansprache. Neben theoretischen Implikationen der Ergebnisse werden Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung der telefonischen Direktansprache im kommerziellen und nicht-kommerziellen Sektor diskutiert.
