Study Notes
Recovery from Work
- Recovery: Unwinding and restoration processes that occur when strain from stressors decreases to pre-stressor levels
- Strain symptoms: job-related demands decrease after job demands have ended, focused on specific activities for recovery
- Effort-recovery model: High work demands cause employee load reactions (physiological and psychological strain), and no job demands allow for recovery
- COR framework: High work demands cause employees to use up their energetic and affective resources, which requires active restoration.
- Recovery activities: Low-duty activities that are associated with well-being and feelings of recovery
- Psychological experiences: Psychological states experienced during non-work time, reflecting psychological detachment from one's work, relaxation, mastery, control, and experiences of meaning (from leisure activities etc.)
- Taxonomy of recovery: Describes various psychological detachment elements from work-related thoughts and feelings during non-work time, through relaxation, mastery and control.
- Recovery outcomes: Well-being, and affective states, improved.
Active Leisure Activities
- Active leisure activities are more helpful than passive ones
- Particularly helpful are physical activities which improve detachment from work, sleep quality, leading to improved psychological well being
- Psychological detachment, relation and control predicted better sleep quality
Motivational Constructs
- People feel more rested and recovered in the morning, which improves work engagement
- Availability of energy after recovery leads to better engagement with work tasks
Performance-Related Outcomes
- Recovery improves task performance, proactivity and organizational citizenship behavior at work the next day
Long-Term Recovery Outcomes
- Findings on recovery during evening and weekends are inconsistent
- Recovery activities and experiences may not be equally important for all
- The issue of study itself is implicated.
Antecedents of Effective Recovery
- Well-being during/end of workday is linked to choice of recovery activity and intensity
- Lack of well-being requires active recovery
Job-Related Factors
- Job stressors (e.g., overload, emotional pressure) reduce engagement in recovery activities
- Job resources (e.g., mastery experiences, control) positively impact recovery activities
- Cognitive or physical effort doesn't have the same effect as job stressors
Job Performance and Related Behaviors
- There's a positive correlation between recovery and perceived success/satisfaction within a workday.
Interventions
- Mindfulness training
- Boundary management
- Techniques to segment work from personal life
Article 2: Leaving Work at Work
- Two types of microbreaks/recovery activities, low-duty and high-duty
- Both low-duty and high-duty activities relate to recovery, but not necessarily in consistent ways, depending on the situation
- Research questions seek to understand recovery activities and experiences as activities, experiences, and states; and if this is temporally consistent
Subtypes of Demands influencing recovery
- Overload, physical, emotional & cognitive demands have varied relationships with recovery
Resource Types
- Contextual (work/personal related) and personal resources and their relation to recovery activities
- Recovery leads to improved well being/satisfaction
- Psychosomatic effects like stress, anxiety manifest as physical effects
Findings on Recovery State
- A state of recovery is positively related to recovery experiences, low-duty activities, and negatively related to high-duty activities
- Physical demands, on the other hand, are not strongly correlated to lower recovery
