Abstract: | This study examines how the emotional labour strategies (henceforth as: e-l-strgs.) of deep acting and surface acting directly influence emotional exhaustion (herein as: e-extn.) and turnover intentions (as: t-o-ints.), and indirectly impact actual turnover among a sample of bank tellers. Turnover data were gathered from organizational records 6 months after participants responded to a survey measuring e-l-strgs., e-extn., and t-o-ints. It is shown that t-o-ints. mediated the relationship btw. deep acting and actual turnover. In addition, surface acting had indirect effects on turnover through e-extn. and t-o-ints. |
