  • The role of general work engagement and well‐being for vacation effects and for vacation fade‐out

    Open AccessEva‐Kristina Brosch, Carmen Binnewies et al.ARTICLEApplied Psychology2024

    Our study examines individual differences in vacation‐related well‐being gains by investigating general work engagement and general well‐being as moderators. We examined the effect of vacation on employees' affective well‐being (negative activation and vigor) concerning three different vacation effects (change in affective well‐being over time): “vacation effect (during)” (before‐during vacation), “vacation effect (after)” (before‐after vacation)…

  • Identifying Restorative Environments for Employees’ Recovery: An Interdisciplinary Mixed Methods Approach

    Micha Hilbert, Carmen Binnewies et al.ARTICLELeisure Sciences2023References: 6

    In this paper, we developed an environmental demands-resources (ED-R) model to explain which environments are restorative for employees during leisure based on the job demands-resources model. We used a mixed methods approach combining semi-structured interviews built upon the critical incident technique and psychometric questionnaires. In total, we gathered 100 different incidents in restorative and stressful environments from 29 participants. F…

  • Learning how to recover from job stress: Effects of a recovery training program on recovery, recovery-related self-efficacy, and well-being.

    Verena C Hahn, Carmen Binnewies et al.ARTICLEJournal of Occupational Health…2011

    This quasi-experimental study evaluated the effects of a recovery training program on recovery experiences (psychological detachment from work, relaxation, mastery experiences, and control during off-job time), recovery-related self-efficacy, and well-being outcomes. The training comprised two sessions held one week apart. Recovery experiences, recovery-related self-efficacy, and well-being outcomes were measured before the training (T1) and one …

  • Staying well and engaged when demands are high: The role of psychological detachment.

    Sabine Sonnentag, Carmen Binnewies et al.ARTICLEJournal of Applied Psychology2010

    The authors of this study examined the relation between job demands and psychological detachment from work during off-job time (i.e., mentally switching off) with psychological well-being and work engagement. They hypothesized that high job demands and low levels of psychological detachment predict poor well-being and low work engagement. They proposed that psychological detachment buffers the negative impact of high job demands on well-being and…

  • What makes a creative day? A diary study on the interplay between affect, job stressors, and job control

    Open AccessCarmen Binnewies, Sarah C WörnleinARTICLEJournal of Organizational Behavior2010Cited by: 8References: 17

    Applying a within‐person perspective to research on creativity at work, this diary study examined daily positive and negative affect (NA) in the morning as well as daily job stressors (time pressure and situational constraints) as predictors of daily creativity. In addition, the general level of job control was investigated as a cross‐level moderator in these relationships. Hypotheses were tested in a sample of 90 interior architects ( N = 326 da…

  • "Did you have a nice evening?" A day-level study on recovery experiences, sleep, and affect.

    Sabine Sonnentag, Carmen Binnewies et al.ARTICLEJournal of Applied Psychology2008

    In this study, the authors used a within-person design to examine the relation between recovery experiences (psychological detachment, relaxation, mastery experiences) during leisure time, sleep, and affect in the next morning. Daily survey data gathered over the course of 1 work week from 166 public administration employees analyzed with a hierarchical linear modeling approach showed that low psychological detachment from work during the evening…

  • Being engaged at work and detached at home: A week-level study on work engagement, psychological detachment, and affect

    Sabine Sonnentag, Eva J Mojza et al.ARTICLEWork & Stress2008

    Although earlier research has shown that work engagement is associated with positive outcomes for the employee and the organization, this paper suggests that employees also need time periods for temporarily disengaging (i.e., psychological detaching) from work. We hypothesized that work engagement and psychological detachment from work during off-job time predict high positive affect and low negative affect and that psychological detachment is pa…

  • Daily performance at work: Feeling recovered in the morning as a predictor of day‐level job performance

    Open AccessCarmen Binnewies, Sabine Sonnentag et al.ARTICLEJournal of Organizational Behavior2008Cited by: 16References: 4

    This study examined the state of being recovered in the morning (i.e., feeling physically and mentally refreshed) as a predictor of daily job performance and daily compensatory effort at work. Ninety‐nine employees from public service organizations completed a general survey and two daily surveys on pocket computers over the course of one workweek. Hierarchical linear modeling showed that being recovered in the morning was positively related to d…
