This study examined the moderated mediating effect of mindfulness as an emotional resource on the relationship between role conflict and burnout (i.e., exhaustion, cynicism, and professional inefficacy) via negative affect. Participants were 481 adult employees in South Korea who provided self‐report data 2 times with a 2‐week interval. The results indicated that mindfulness moderated the relationship between role conflict and negative affect such that the effect of role conflict on negative affect was reduced when mindfulness was high. Furthermore, Time 1 role conflict had conditional indirect effects on 3 facets of burnout measured at Time 2 through Time 1 negative affect depending on the levels of Time 1 mindfulness. The findings suggest that mindfulness may prevent the development of negative affect from role conflict, ultimately reducing the impact of role conflict on burnout. Practitioners should introduce workplace mindfulness programs to help employees cope with burnout more effectively.

从角色冲突到工作倦怠：以正念为中介的调解模型

这项研究考察了正念作为一种情绪资源通过负面影响对角色冲突与倦怠（即疲惫，犬儒主义和职业无效）之间关系的调节作用。参与者是韩国的481名成年雇员，他们每2周提供两次自我报告数据。结果表明，正念可以缓解角色冲突与负面影响之间的关系，从而在正念程度较高时，角色冲突对负面影响的影响会降低。此外，时间1角色冲突对时间2到时间1的消极影响的3个方面有条件间接影响，这取决于时间1的正念水平。研究结果表明，正念可以防止角色冲突产生负面影响，最终减少角色冲突对倦怠的影响。从业人员应引入工作场所正念计划，以帮助员工更有效地应对职业倦怠。
