Summary: Recent studies have emphasized the importance of sleep for procrastination at work and proposed that depleted self-regulatory resources contribute to procrastination. This study aimed to explore the impact of sleep quality and chronotype on procrastination, as well as the exacerbating effect of daylight saving time on circadian misalignment. The findings support the hypothesis that later chronotypes are more dependent on high-quality sleep to prevent procrastination, particularly after the shift to daylight saving time.

Summary: Recently, the network theory of mental disorders has been applied to understand work addiction as a dynamic system of symptoms in direct relationships. This study aimed to investigate the direct relationships of work addiction symptoms with work engagement, job burnout, and perceived stress. The findings revealed that work engagement and job burnout were closely associated with each other but less with work addiction. The symptoms of work addiction were connected to other phenomena through specific pathways. These findings contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms leading from engagement to addiction and from addiction to burnout.

Summary: Grounded on person-job fit theory, this study examined the relationship between perceived overqualification and counterproductive work behavior (CWB), while identifying job boredom as a mediator and job crafting as a moderator. The findings demonstrated a positive association between perceived overqualification and CWBs. Furthermore, the study discovered that job crafting moderates the positive relation between perceived overqualification and job boredom, and the indirect connection between perceived overqualification and CWB through job boredom.

Summary: The study aims to examine the associations between adverse working conditions and work sustainability across gender and age groups. The results show that 14.2% and 17.1% of male and female workers reported low work sustainability. Workers in the electronics industries and female workers in the healthcare and education sectors reported low work sustainability. Gender-specific analyses indicate that low job control among men and shift work among women are significantly associated with low work sustainability. Age-specific analyses indicate that poor health, shift work, and long working hours in younger workers, and low job control in older workers are associated with low work sustainability.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the impact of work stress, job satisfaction, and sleep quality on depression among Chinese healthcare workers (HCWs), and to explore the differences in these effects based on educational degree. The results showed that sleep quality mediated the relationship between work stress and depression in healthcare workers. Among HCWs with lower educational qualifications, job satisfaction also played a mediating role, while this mediating effect was not significant among HCWs with higher educational qualifications.
