Abstract

Abstract:

Based on the conservation of resources (COR) theory, the data of 114 employees of a commercial bank and their spouses were collected by experience sampling methodology. The results showed that, at the within-person level, employee mindfulness was positively related to their spouse family satisfaction and work engagement the next morning via employee strategic emotional connecting display. Spouse family negative emotional expression at the between-person level moderated the relationship between employee mindfulness and employee strategic emotional connecting display, and the mediating effect of employee strategic emotional connecting display; that is, the higher level the spouse family negative emotional expression, the weaker the effects of employee mindfulness on employee strategic emotional connecting display and the mediating effect of employee strategic emotional connecting display.

Key words: mindfulness, strategic emotional connecting display, family satisfaction, work engagement, family negative emotional expression
