“…Earlier studies have provided support for the validity of single item measures (e.g., Drolet & Morrison, 2001;Elo, Leppänen, & Jahkola, 2003). Concerning recovery, it has been shown that recovery from work measured with one item correlated highly with longer recovery scales, such as need for recovery (Kinnunen, Feldt, Siltaloppi, & Sonnentag, 2011).…”

“…Second, although previous studies have demonstrated one item measures to be valid substitutes for longer scales (Drolet & Morrison, 2001;Elo et al, 2003;Fisher, Matthews, & Gibbons, 2016;Kinnunen et al, 2011) future research may benefit from using multiple item measures for lunchtime recovery and recovery experiences. Third, a further limitation concerning the measures is that our study relies solely on self-report measures and may therefore suffer from common method bias.…”

This study had two aims. First, we examined whether lunch break settings, activities, and recovery experiences were associated with lunchtime recovery cross-sectionally. Second, we investigated whether lunchtime recovery was related to energy levels (i.e., exhaustion and vigor) across a 12-month period.We collected longitudinal questionnaire data among 841 Finnish workers (59% female, mean age 47 years) from 11 different organizations in various fields at two time points (spring 2013 and 2014). We used hierarchical regression analysis to test our hypotheses.We found that recovery experiences, that is, psychological detachment from work and control during the lunch break, were related to successful lunchtime recovery. After controlling for background factors, main job characteristics (workload and autonomy), and the outcomes at baseline, successful lunchtime recovery was related to a decrease in exhaustion and to an increase in vigor one year later.To conclude, lunch breaks offer an important setting for internal recovery during working days and seem to relate to energy levels at work over time.

“…Work-related rumination as a concept differs from the concept of psychological detachment in that it refers solely to the negative side of thinking about work during off-job time, e.g., concentrating on problems. Low psychological detachment predicts emotional exhaustion over time (Sonnentag et al, 2010) and mediates the relationship between job demands and fatigue at work (Kinnunen et al, 2011). Irritation including both cognitive and emotional aspects has been found to mediate the effects of social (also supervisor-related) stressors on depressive symptoms (Dormann and Zapf, 2002).…”

The study aims to examine whether the link between transformational leadership and depressive symptoms among employees is mediated by such personal resources as occupational self-efficacy, perceived meaningfulness of the work, and work-related rumination.Design/methodology/approach.

“…The mechanism facilitating recovery is conceptualised within the context of the Job Demands-Resources-Recovery model (JD-R-R; Kinnunen, Feldt, Siltaloppi, & Sonnentag, 2011) -which is an extension of the original Job-Demands Resources model (JD-R; Demerouti, Bakker, Nachreiner, and Schaufeli, 2001) -by considering recovery as a significant mediation mechanism that underlies the relationship between work characteristics and well-being. Kinnunen et al's (2011) JD-R-R model postulates that job demands (e.g.…”

Research on the feeling of embitterment at work is still in its infancy. The present study investigated the predictors and consequences of the feeling of embitterment at work. It was hypothesised that organisational injustice as well as over-controlling supervision would predict embitterment at work and that embitterment would be associated with work-related rumination. Three hundred and thirty-seven employees completed an online survey.Regression analysis revealed that procedural injustice and over-controlling supervision were significant predictors of embitterment and that embitterment contributed significantly to the prediction of increased affective rumination and reduction in detachment. Mediation analysis indicated that embitterment at work was a significant mechanism through which organisational injustice and over-controlling supervision exerted their effect on affective rumination, which is indicative of insufficient recovery from work. Findings suggest that breaches in organisational justice can generate feelings of embitterment at work, which in turn can interfere with employees' ability to adequately recover from work.Practitioner Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate predictors and consequences of embitterment in the workplace, by using an online questionnaire. Findings suggest that perceived unfairness, because of structural and organizational aspects, predict feelings of embitterment and that feeling embittered at work can prevent employees from adequately recovering from work.
