ABSTRACT

This study aimed to provide insight into recovery from work-related load effects by examining (a) whether basic psychological need (BPN) satisfaction during nonwork days facilitates recovery, (b) whether the effect of BPN satisfaction is stronger in case of an unfavorable initial recovery state, and (c) whether the association between BPN satisfaction and recovery is stronger on nonwork weekend days compared to nonwork weekdays. Data were collected across 7 consecutive days from 205 employees (39% shift workers). Fatigue and depressed mood were assessed as indicators of (failed) recovery. Multilevel analyses revealed that BPN satisfaction during nonwork days was related to improved recovery state. This association was stronger (a) if employees had experienced elevated fatigue on the preceding day and (b) on nonwork weekend days compared to nonwork weekdays.

摘要

这项研究旨在通过检查（a）非工作日的基本心理需求（BPN）满足是否促进康复，（b）在不利的初始情况下BPN满足的效果是否更强，从而提供从工作相关的负荷影响中恢复的见解。恢复状态；以及（c）周末非工作日的BPN满意度与恢复之间的联系是否比非工作日更强。连续7天收集了205名员工（39％的轮班员工）的数据。疲劳和情绪低落被评估为（失败）恢复的指标。多级分析显示，非工作日的BPN满意度与恢复状态的改善有关。
