挑战性—障碍性压力源研究进展

Literature Review of Challenge and Hindrance Stressors

文章从挑战性压力源和障碍性压力源的二维结构分类、界定、测量及其对员工态度和行为的影响几个方面梳理了以往研究成果。以往研究成果揭示,管理者在工作过程中可以通过为员工提供较多的挑战因素和调整员工对挑战因素的认知态度激发员工的积极性,使其保持较高绩效。但同时也应注意两类压力源发挥作用的边界条件,并提出未来研究方向应是加强对压力源二维结构内容及其与结果变量的作用机制、两类压力源的交互作用等方面的深入研究。

This paper presents a literature review of the previous researches on the challenge stressors and hin- drance stressors from the perspective of the two-dimensional model classifications, definitions, measurements, and effects on the employees＇ attitudes and behaviors. The previous studies revealed that managers might stimulate em- ployees by providing them with more challenges and readjusting their cognitive attitudes towards these challenges, so as to promote their work achievements. But simultaneously, attention should be paid to the boundary conditions un- der which both the challenge stressors and hindrance stressors exert their functions. Future researches should pay more attention to the contents and structures of the challenge and hindrance stressors, to the mechanism between them and the outcome variables, and to the interaction between these two stressors, etc.
