Resumo(s)
This study expands on the existing research on employees’ work-related mental health by analyzing (1) the
relationship between within-person fluctuations in perceived leadership effectiveness and positive affect and
mental health and (2) between-person variations in neuroticism as a relevant boundary condition of this relationship. Multilevel data was collected from 224 working adults (2240 measurement occasions). The results
demonstrated that fluctuations in the perception of the leader’s effectiveness were positively related to daily
positive affect, and this relationship was moderated by the followers’ levels of neuroticism, in such a way that
higher levels of neuroticism buffered the positive effect of leadership effectiveness on positive affect. The findings
also evidenced a positive relationship between daily positive affect and daily mental health, as well as a significant indirect effect from perceived leadership effectiveness to daily fluctuations in mental health via daily
fluctuations in positive affect. An effective leader makes employees feel more positive affect during the day,
which is beneficial to their daily mental health; however, this relationship is may be impaired by the employees’
levels of neuroticism. Practical implications for theory and practice are discussed.
