Abstract
The study examined daily associations between presenteeism and health-related factors among office workers using ecological momentary assessment (EMA). Diurnal mood and physical symptoms were repeatedly recorded over 2 weeks with EMA. Daily work performance (WP) was also recorded. Recalled WP and baseline health conditions were assessed via questionnaires. Daily sleep was assessed using actigraphy. Reliability between recalled and daily WP was compared. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was used to analyze the effects of sleep, mood, and physical symptoms on daily WP. Weak yet significant agreement was found between recalled and daily WP, with EMA capturing occasional declines in performance overlooked by recalled assessments. HLM indicated that longer sleep, reduced depressive mood, and decreased shoulder stiffness were significantly associated with increased daily WP. These factors are associated with daily fluctuations in presenteeism, suggesting potential targets of intervention.
