“…The relationship between marital status and job performance is complex. Married men earn 12.4 percent (Chun and Lee, 2001) more and attain better performance than single men (Mehay and Bowman, 2005). Thus, we controlled for marital status (coded as "0 = single" and "1 = married").…”

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of emotional labor on job performance and satisfaction, as well as to examine the mediating effect of sleep problems and the moderating effects of personality traits. A time-lagged study was conducted on 864 health professionals. Scales for emotional labor, sleep, personality traits, and job satisfaction were used and job performance data was obtained from records maintained by human resources. Structural equation modeling was performed to investigate the relations. Sleep problems only partially mediated the relationship between surface acting and job satisfaction but completely mediated the relationship between surface acting and job performance. Several personality traits were shown to moderate the relationship between surface acting and sleep problems. The effects were stronger for people with low agreeableness and high neuroticism. The relationship between high levels of deep acting and low levels of sleep problems was more pronounced in individuals with low extraversion. Supervisors should be conscious of emotional labor in the work context and provide necessary deep acting training to facilitate emotional regulation.

“…Educational level seems, according to another meta-analysis, to be positively related to core task performance and citizenship, and negatively related to counterproductive work behavior ( Ng & Feldman, 2009 ). Although little research has been conducted on the relationship between marital status and work performance, research does indicate that married men perform better than do unmarried men ( Mehay & Bowman, 2005 ). When it comes to the specifi c performance of leaders, this is assumed in general to be superior compared to that of subordinates ( Stogdill, 1974 ).…”

Online social network sites are often used for personal purposes during working hours. Whether or not such use interferes with and impairs work performance is obviously of organizational and economical interest. This impairment hypothesis was empirically tested by the current study. A total of 11,018 (5,656 male) employees participated in a web-based cross-sectional survey distributed in the online edition of several Norwegian newspapers. To investigate the relationship between the use of online social network sites for personal purposes during working hours and self-reported work performance, these measures were included with additional questions about demography (age, sex, education, relationship status, professional position) and personality (Mini-IPIP; Extroversion, Neuroticism, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Intellect/Imagination). The data was analyzed by hierarchical regression analyses, where absolute (usual performance) and relative (usual performance compared to one's judgment of the usual performance of most workers in similar a job) self-reported work performance comprised the dependent variables. Demographic variables were entered in block one, personality variables in block two, and use of online social network sites for personal purposes during work hours was entered in the third and fi nal block. This variable was signifi cantly and negatively related to both absolute and relative self-reported work performance, and explained 1.1% and 1.2% of the variance in these variables, respectively. The fi ndings suggest that the use of online social network sites for personal purposes during working hours has a negative eff ect on self-reported work performance, although the effects were very slight. The results might have been infl uenced by self-report bias.

“…For example, Chun and Lee () found that married men earn 12.4% more than men who had never been married, after controlling for education, work experience, ethnic background, and factors that may affect both wages and marriage prospects. Married males achieve higher performance than single males (Mehay & Bowman ). Conversely, married women seem appear to be less well perceived for employment compared with single women.…”
