摘　　要：基于调节焦点理论,本研究探讨了促进型调节焦点在挑战性工作压力和员工创造力之间、防御型调节焦点在阻碍性工作压力和员工创造力之间所起的中介作用,并根据社会信息处理理论,进一步探究了参与型领导在此过程中的调节作用。通过对202份调查问卷进行统计分析,得出以下研究结论:(1)挑战性工作压力能够诱发员工的促进型调节焦点,阻碍性工作压力能够诱发员工的防御型调节焦点;(2)促进型调节焦点在挑战性工作压力与员工创造力之间起中介作用,即挑战性工作压力通过增强促进型调节焦点继而提高员工创造力,防御型调节焦点在阻碍性工作压力与员工创造力之间的没有起到中介作用;(3)参与型领导增强了挑战性工作压力与促进型调节焦点之间的正向关系,并在这个模型中起调节作用;(4)参与型领导削弱了阻碍性工作压力与防御型调节焦点之间的正向关系,但并没有在整个模型中起到调节作用。以上研究为"如何使员工在沉重的工作压力下提高创造力"等问题提供了一个新的解释,具有重要的理论和实践意义。In today's highly volatile and uncertain environment,it is becoming increasingly important to drive organizational success and survival,which makes employee creativity more valuable in the workplace.In recent years,scholars and managers have attributed great importance to the improvement of employee creativity.At the same time,in the increasingly fierce market,competition,heavy workloads,and fast-paced environments put heavy pressure on employees.So,under such conditions,how do employees respond to work stress and enhance their creativity?This paper will answer this question.Based on the theory of regulatory focus,this paper explores how work stress(challenge stress and hindrance stress)phases through two different regulatory focuses,which in turn affect employee creativity.The role of participative leadership in the process will also be explored,using the theory of social information processing.A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed in this study,from which 202 valid questionnaires were collected.Data was collected in two-week intervals,to reduce the potential of common biases in methodology and test the causal relationships assumed in this model.A structural equation model,hierarchical regression analysis,and the bootstrapping method were applied to analyze the data from the questionnaire.The research results show that:(1)Challenge stress can induce promotion focus in employees,and hindrance stress can induce prevention focus;(2)Promotion focus plays a role as an intermediary between challenge stress and employee creativity–that is,challenge stress enhances employee creativity by strengthening promotion focus,and prevention focus does not serve as a mediator between hindrance stress and employee creativity;(3)Participative leadership enhances the positive correlation between challenge stress and promotion focus,and plays a regulatory role in this model;(4)Participative leadership weakens the positive correlation between hindrance stress and prevention focus,but does not play a regulatory role in this
