Summary: Guided by self-determination and social exchange theories, this study examines the impact of leader-member exchange (LMX) quality on follower well-being. Through a daily diary study involving employees from various organizations, it was found that LMX quality varies over time and predicts daily follower well-being. Social LMX exchanges, but not economic LMX exchanges, were found to predict daily well-being for those who interacted with their managers. Work engagement was found to mediate the relationship between daily LMX quality and social LMX exchanges with well-being.

Summary: Grounded in self-determination theory, this study examined weekly fluctuations in different forms of work-related rumination depending on perceived autonomy support and fear of failure at the workplace. The results showed that perceived autonomy support was associated with reduced affective rumination and problem-solving pondering, while fear of failure was associated with decreased psychological detachment from work during nonwork time. Furthermore, fear of failure moderated the negative link between perceived autonomy support and affective rumination.

Summary: A lack of recovery from work can be harmful to health, and high cognitive demands may hinder psychological detachment. The long-term effects of cognitive demands on health and work ability through psychological detachment have been understudied. Social support has been found to buffer the relationship between job demands and psychological detachment, but the specific role of supervisor support has not been examined. This study highlights the mediating role of psychological detachment between cognitive demands, general health, and work ability, as well as the moderating effect of supervisor support in the relationship between cognitive demands and psychological detachment.

Summary: The study emphasizes the importance of leader political skill as a moderator of the relationship between influence tactics used by leaders and member outcomes. When leader political skill and influence tactics supplement each other, it only upholds existing beliefs about the leader and jointly account for little incremental variance in member outcomes, but when they complement each other, it provides missing information about the leader and has a positive impact on member outcomes. Additionally, politically skilled leaders using tactics in sharp contrast to their interpersonal style of leadership will lead members to question positive beliefs about the leader and negatively impact member outcomes.

Summary: This study explores the relationship between transformational leadership and leader well-being over time, using Conservation of Resources (COR) theory as a framework. The findings suggest that at the between-person level, transformational leadership is associated with greater vigor, occupational self-efficacy, information exchange, and meaning of work. At the within-person level, there are no lagged associations between transformational leadership and well-being, but vigor in one week positively predicts information exchange and meaning of work in the following week. Overall, transformational leadership is found to be a resource that contributes to leader well-being.

Summary: Building on Affective Events Theory (AET), this study examined the within-person relationships between perceptions of leader-member exchange (LMX) and positive affect as well as the relationship between positive affect and recovery from work in the evening. The study also investigated the moderating role of LMX variability in these relationships. The results revealed direct relationships between perceptions of LMX and employee positive affect at work, and positive affect was positively associated with two recovery experiences (mastery and relaxation). Moreover, LMX variability moderated the indirect effects of LMX on employee recovery experiences, with the indirect associations being significant when LMX variability was low but nonsignificant when LMX variability was moderate or high. This study contributes to the understanding of LMX by adopting a within-person perspective and linking workplace leadership with recovery from work.
