午休活動、休息復甦經驗與下午自我評估工作績效間的關聯性

Lunchtime Activities, Recovery Experience and Self-rated Job Performance in the Afternoon

本研究主要探討午休活動、休息復甦經驗和下午自我工作績效的關聯。根據Meijman and Mulder（1998）的努力-復甦模型，以及Hobfoll（1989）的資源保存理論，午休活動會對休息復甦經驗產生影響力，進而也會影響下午的工作績效。214人參與本研究調查，資料分析是採SPSS套裝軟體中的多元線性迴歸。結果顯示，午休遠離工作和放鬆經驗雖然會影響下午自我評估的工作效率、工作品質和工作整體的績效，但是午休參與休閒活動卻會對下午自我評估工作效率產生負向關聯性。午休所參與的活動、休息復甦經驗和下午自我評估的工作績效的關聯性比Meijman and Mulder（1998）的努力-復甦模型理論還要複雜，勞工在午休時間裡所參與活動的決定可能不是完全起因於生理和心理的需求。

Our study was to explore the correlations between lunchtime activities, recovery experiences, and self-rated job performance in the afternoon. According to the effortrecovery model of Meijman and Mulder (1998) and the resource conservation theory of Hobfoll (1989), lunch activities would have an impact on recovery experience, and then affect job performance in the afternoon. 214 people participated in the survey, and multiple linear regression is used to describe data and to explain the relationship between lunchtime activities, recovery experiences, and self-rated job performance in the afternoon. The results showed that self-rated job efficiency, job quality and overall job performance in the afternoon were associated with detach work and relaxation experience in lunchtime, but leisure activities in lunchtime had a negative correlation with the job efficiency in the afternoon. It seemed that the correlation between the lunchtime activities, recovery experience, and the self-rated job performance in the afternoon was more complicated than the effort-recovery model of Meijman and Mulder (1998) proposed. The activities which workers participate in lunchtime might be not determined by their physical and mental needs.
