Affectivity, Organizational Stressors, and Absenteeism: A Causal Model of Burnout and Its Consequences.
Iverson, Roderick D.; Olekalns, Mara; Erwin, Peter J.
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v52 n1 p1-23 Feb 1998

Positive affectivity correlated with autonomy and lower absenteeism. Affectivity had stronger effects on burnout than did organizational stress factors. (SK)
