Description

This study examined the relationship between job burnout and risk preference among coal miners while investigating the mediating role of self-control. Data collected from 366 coal miners over six months revealed that job burnout indirectly influenced risk preference through self-control. Higher burnout levels were associated with lower self-control, which subsequently predicted increased risk preference. Additionally, risk preference had a direct longitudinal impact on burnout, indicating that miners with greater risk-seeking tendencies were more susceptible to burnout over time. These findings highlight the significance of self-control as a mediator in the job burnout-risk preference relationship.
