Abstract Workplace deviance is an important problem in organization
management. Previous studies focused too much on the influence of various
factors in the workplace and ignored the interference of family factors. We
integrate emotional social function theory and emotional labor theory, and
examine the effect of (in) congruence between work and family status on
workplace deviance. Using longitudinal data and polynomial regression, we find
that: (1) Emotional exhaustion is higher when work and family status are
congruent; (2) In the case of work-family congruence, emotional exhaustion is
higher when work and family status are aligned at a low level than when… More >

Abstract Occupational well-being is optimal psychological functioning and
experience in the workplace. This study examined the role of opportunities for
career development as a mechanism that links supervisor’s transformational
leadership and subordinates’ occupational well-being manifested by work
engagement. Specifically, drawing on conservation of resources theory (COR),
we developed a dual pathway model in which opportunities for promotion and
for professional development were posited as two important mediators in the
relationship between transformational leadership and work engagement. The
hypotheses were tested with a sample of 215 Chinese civil servants. The results
of structural equation modeling showed that a supervisor’s transformational
leadership was… More >

Abstract Work-related use of ICT (W_ICT) at home has been found to relate to
important employee outcomes in their work and family lives. However, little is
known about how individuals can actively apply strategies or tactics to utilize the
advantages or reduce the disadvantages of W_ICT. In the current study, based on
boundary theory, we examined the interaction effect of segmentation preference
and boundary control in creating the boundary around W_ICT and its subsequent
positive effect on individuals’ psychological detachment. Results based on a
sample of 560 Chinese full-time employees showed that only for individuals
with higher boundary control, segmentation preference… More >
