Abstract: Female scientific and technological workers are important contributors and participants in the vigorous development of China's scientific and technological industry, playing a crucial role in opening up new fields and tracks for technological innovation, achieving high-level technological self-reliance and self-improvement, and building a world science and technology powerhouse; However, the academic community's attention to the mental health status of female technology workers is relatively insufficient. Job burnout is a chronic disease that inhibits the innovation and work vitality of female technology workers in technological innovation activities. However, there is currently no in-depth exploration of the internal impact mechanism by scholars on how it will affect work performance. This study focuses on 4033 female technology workers in China. Based on resource conservation theory and cognitive affective personality system theory, job satisfaction and job engagement are introduced as mediating variables to construct a chain mediated model of job burnout inhibiting job performance, Verified the effectiveness of the explanatory chain mediating effect of "negative situations (job burnout) - cognitive units (job satisfaction) - emotional units (job engagement) - behavioral outcomes (job performance)", and explored the moderating effect of work values. Research has shown that (1) job burnout significantly negatively affects job performance; (2) Job satisfaction and job engagement play a partial mediating role in the negative impact of job burnout on job performance, respectively; (3) Job satisfaction and job engagement play a chain mediating role in the negative impact of job burnout on job performance; (4) Work values play a moderating role in the chain mediated relationship by enhancing the positive impact of work engagement on job performance. Based on existing research findings, this article provides relevant management insights.

摘要: 女性科技工作者是我国科技事业蓬勃发展的重要贡献者和参与者,然而学界对于女性科技工作者职业倦怠的关注相对不足,职业倦怠会通过何种方式影响女性科技工作者的工作绩效,当前针对其内在影响机制的研究还较少。本研究以国内4033位女性科技工作者为研究对象,基于资源保存理论和认知—情感人格系统理论,构建了“消极情境(职业倦怠)—认知单元(工作满意度)—情感单元(工作投入)—行为结果(工作绩效)”的链式中介模型,并探讨了工作价值观的调节作用。研究表明:(1)职业倦怠显著负向影响工作绩效;(2)工作满意度与工作投入分别在职业倦怠对工作绩效的负向影响中起部分中介作用;(3)工作满意度和工作投入在职业倦怠对工作绩效的负向影响中起链式中介作用;(4)工作价值观通过增强工作投入对工作绩效的正向影响,进而对链式中介关系起到调节作用。综合现有研究结论,本文给出了相关管理启示。
