摘要:

随着互联网的迅速发展和普及,领导与员工进行线上沟通已逐渐成为酒店工作中的常态。然而,当前学术界较少关注领导与员工线上沟通对员工的影响。笔者基于认知评价理论,通过4组实验探讨酒店领导与员工进行线上沟通时使用emoji表情符号对员工感知的工作场所乐趣的影响及其影响机制。研究结果表明:(1)领导与员工进行线上沟通时使用emoji表情符号会影响员工感知的工作场所乐趣;(2)在积极语境下,员工情绪强度会在领导使用emoji表情符号与员工感知的工作场所乐趣之间起中介作用;(3)在积极(消极)语境下,员工的共情能力会正向(负向)调节领导使用emoji表情符号与员工情绪强度之间的关系;(4)在积极(消极)语境下,领导-成员交换关系会正向(负向)调节员工积极(消极)情绪强度与员工感知的工作场所乐趣之间的关系。本研究有助于揭示领导与员工线上沟通中emoji表情符号的使用对员工感知工作场所乐趣的影响机制,对酒店管理人员优化线上沟通方式、提升沟通效果有一定的现实指导意义。

Abstract:

With the rapid development and widespread adoption of the internet, online communication between leaders and employees has become commonplace in hotel operations. However, there is scant academic focus on the effects of such communication on employees. This paper, grounded in cognitive appraisal theory, explores through four experimental groups how the use of emojis in online communications between hotel leaders and employees impacts employees’ perceived workplace enjoyment and the underlying mechanisms. The findings indicate: (1) The use of emojis in online communications by leaders affects employees’ perception of workplace enjoyment. (2) In positive contexts, emotional intensity mediates the relationship between leaders’ emoji use and employees’ perceived workplace enjoyment. (3) In positive (negative) contexts, employees’ empathy capability positively (negatively) moderates the relationship between leaders’ emoji use and employees’ emotional intensity. (4) In positive (negative) contexts, the leader-member exchange relationship positively (negatively) moderates the relationship between employees’ emotional intensity and their perceived workplace enjoyment. This study contributes to understanding the mechanisms by which emoji usage in online communications influences employees’ perception of workplace enjoyment, offering practical guidance for hotel management in optimizing online communication strategies and enhancing communication effectiveness.
