EAW is multi-faceted in nature, and encompasses behavioral manifestations such as long working hours (including overtime work), sickness presenteeism (SP), leavism, and teleworking (working on mobile devices outside the workplace and during off-time). The field currently suffers from lack of theoretical development to organize and guide systematic research. I thus introduce a motivational theoretical perspective on EAW to integrate different strands of research and to formulate directions for concerted efforts on the subject. My endeavor not only remedies the deficiency in considering the motivational aspect of EAW, but also explains the underlying psychological process of human agency. The agency sets motion the dynamic process actualizing both costs as well as benefits of EAW. I integrated the general model of values and work (Roe & Ester, 1999) with the self-determination theory (SDT, Deci & Ryan, 1985). In particular, I adopted the autonomous-controlled orientation of individual difference as the starting point, linking such general value orientations with intrinsic/extrinsic work values. These divergent work values then express themselves in the act of voluntary/involuntary EAW, motivated by the individual’s strive to satisfy basic human needs of autonomy, competency, and relatedness. These distinct motivations finally determine the good/bad work outcomes. This overarching theoretical framework (Figure 1) forms the basis for generating new insights and testing hypotheses in the proposed studies. Specifically, in the first-year project (Study 1), I will conduct in-depth interviews to help us to better understand the multi-faceted EAW phenomenon as embedded in the Taiwanese work environment. I will describe the dynamic motivational regulatory processes of EAW, using people’s own narratives (all paths in Figure 1). On the basis of new insights and understandings generated from the qualitative study, I will systematically examine pathways linking general values, work values, EAW motivations and behavior in a heterogeneous sample of Taiwanese employees (second-year project, Study 2). In the third- and fourth year projects (Study 3), I will adopt a three-wave panel design to examine pathways linking EAW motivations, behavior and work outcomes (Figure 2). This longitudinal study incorporates different time frames (3 months, 6 months, 9 months), to systematically examine the stability and variability of the “motivation behavior- outcome” relationships. This will provide more solid empirical evidence for the integrated theoretical framework in Figure 1. The thrust of this research is innovatively bridging motivational regulatory processes with organizational research. Findings will have important implications on HR management.過度工作動機調控歷程自主-受控取向內/外在工作價值自願/非自願過度工 作過度工作之好/不好後果excessive availability for work (EAW)motivational regulatory processautonomous-controlled orientationintrinsic/extrinsic work valuesvoluntary/involuntary EAWgood and bad EAW過度工作之利與弊–從動機調控展現個人能動性
