  • 소개/요약This study investigated the daily relationships between mindfulness and job satisfaction via affect, and mindfulness and task performance via problem solving confidence. Participants were 57 full‐time and part‐time employees who completed a baseline survey and five daily diary entries. Data were analyzed using multilevel modelling approach. On days when they experienced greater mindfulness, employees also experienced (a) greater daily job satisfaction via high‐activation positive affect (but not low‐activation positive affect, nor negative affect); and (b) greater daily self‐reported task performance, via problem solving confidence. Our findings suggest that daily high‐activation positive affect and problem solving confidence may be important mechanisms of mindfulness at work. Growing evidence links mindfulness to work‐related outcomes, however limited research has investigated the mechanisms involved. The present study is one of the first to collect empirical observations regarding how state mindfulness operates at work on a daily basis, providing support for both affective and cognitive pathways. Advances in this area can underpin a robust theoretical framework to guide the implementation of daily mindfulness practice and interventions targeting specific work‐related outcomes.
