Background: Being involved in an artistic intervention is related to employeesinterest to do work tasks in other ways and to develop new professional skills. These proactive changes, job crafting, that employees make to their work conditions increase work-related well-being, work engagement.Methods: This two-wave quasi-experimental intervention study investigated whether a visual art intervention enhanced the crafting of job resources (skill variety) and increased work engagement. The study was conducted among employees (n = 21) working in five comprehensive schools and in four day-care centers over a 1-month intervention. Employees not involved in the interventions served as the control group (n = 19).Results: Repeated measures ANOVAs showed no significant interaction effects. However, pre-post comparison tests showed that, unexpectedly, the participants' work engagement significantly decreased, and skill variety tentatively diminished. Qualitative feedback revealed some shortcomings in the implementation of the intervention.Conclusions: In the case of insufficient operation, the intervention may even have reverse effects.

一项参与式视觉艺术干预的两波半实验干预研究：对工作资源和工作投入的意外影响。

背景：参与艺术干预与员工以其他方式从事工作任务和发展新的专业技能的兴趣有关。员工对工作条件进行的这些积极的改变，工作技巧的提高可提高与工作相关的幸福感和工作投入。方法：此两波准实验干预研究旨在研究视觉艺术干预是否增强了工作资源的技巧（技能）。品种）和增加工作投入。该研究是在五个综合学校和四个日托中心工作的雇员（n = 21）中进行的，为期1个月。未参加干预的员工作为对照组（n = 19）。结果：重复测量方差分析显示无显着的交互作用。但是，事前比较测试表明，出乎意料的是，参与者的工作投入显着下降，技能种类暂时减少。定性反馈揭示了实施干预措施的一些缺点。结论：在操作不充分的情况下，干预措施甚至可能产生相反的效果。
