摘要：
Relationships among workaholism, mindfulness, and negative affect (NA) were examined. Data were collected, through Amazon Mechanical Turk, from 400 working adults in the USA. Workaholism was positively related to weekly hours worked and NA, and mindfulness was negatively related to NA. Additionally, workaholism and weekly hours worked were negatively related to mindfulness. Moreover, mindfulness moderated the relationship between workaholism and NA such that as levels of mindfulness increased, the influence of workaholism on NA decreased. Thus, mindfulness can be developed like a skill through meditation, and it may be established as an intervention for workaholism by reducing the compulsive behavior of workaholics and weakening the relationship with NA.
