摘要

對於工作者而言，培養運動習慣被視為減緩疼痛以及維持健康的代名詞。儘管，先前研究多指稱運動中所獲得的正向資源能夠被轉移至其他場域之中。仍舊尚未明確指出，工作者如何將運動中所獲得的益處展現至工作層面。因此，本研究採用質化取徑的方式，以探究養成運動習慣時所產生的好處對於個體在工作任務的影響效果。透過訪談不同支持員工運動程度的公司當中的工作者。研究發現，個體在運動過程中所達到的旺盛活力狀態確實能夠被轉移到工作場域中，並促發工作場域中的旺盛活力狀態。其中，旺盛活力在兩場域間管道的豐富程度，則會受到組織對於運動支持程度而影響。本研究深化工作中的旺盛活力模式並提供相關實徵貢獻以及未來研究方向。

Regular exercise has been recommended as a mean to pain-easing and health-maintenance for working adults. However, prior researches generally assume that positive resources that generate from regular exercise can be transferred to other settings, but how employees benefit from regular exercise in work domains is still unclear. Therefore, this study takes a qualitative approach to test the positive effects of regular exercise on employees’ job tasks. By interviewing employees who exercise on a regular basis in companies with different levels of support for employees’ regular exercise, the present study finds that personal thriving experience during regular exercise can indeed be transferred to work settings to stimulate thriving at work, and that channels for the transfer of thriving across the two settings increase as the levels of company support for exercise elevate. Results of this study suggest a revised model of thriving at work, and other implications and future research directions are discussed.
