摘要
We argue that, although positive affectivity (PA) provides intraindividual benefits when experiencing stress, this resilience to stressors does not necessarily translate into improved evaluations by others. In the context of our research, different outcomes in response to increased role overload are expected on the basis of prior theoretical and empirical research. We found that, under conditions of high role overload, those with high PA did not experience reduced job satisfaction (Study 1). However, supervisor-rated performance decreased in the context of heightened role overload for those high in PA (Study 2). Thus, PA may help the individual cope, but it may not convert to increased performance ratings as reported by one's supervisor. Copyright (c) 2015 ASAC. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. ResumeCet article montre que meme si l'affectivite positive (PA) offre des avantages intra-individuels lorsqu'on est confronte au stress, cette resistance aux facteurs stressants ne se traduit pas necessairement par des evaluations ameliorees faites par les autres. Dans le contexte de la presente recherche, en reponse a une surcharge accrue de roles, des resultats differents sont envisages sur la base des travaux theoriques et empiriques anterieurs. Les resultats indiquent que dans les situations de surcharge elevee de roles, les travailleurs qui ont une PA elevee n'eprouvent pas une satisfaction reduite au travail (etude 1). Cependant, dans un contexte de surcharge accrue de roles, on note une baisse dans l'evaluation, par les superviseurs, de la performance des employes ayant une PA elevee (etude 2). Il s'ensuit que la PA peut certes aider le travailleur a gerer le stress, mais elle ne se traduit pas par de meilleures evaluations de la performance comme en fait foi l'evaluation du superviseur.
