1. What is Service?
Dieter Zapf5 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
What is Service?
A problem of a customer is solved or a need is satisfied
Not production of a product, but adding something to a product or
changing a product
The process is in parts intangible
Normally, there is no mutual obligation between the partners of the
service interaction
There is a social interaction between a service provider and a
customer or client either face-to-face or mediated by electronic
media such as telephone
The interaction itself is part of service delivery. Therefore it has to
satisfy certain requirements
Corsten (1997); Nerdinger (1994)

Human Service Work
The customers/clients themselves are the subject-matter of service performance
This includes a direct impact on
Cognitive/intellectual,
emotional or
Physical
aspects of a person.
Examples: Physicians, nurses, teachers, social workers, hairdressers
Coincidence of production and consumption with regard to time and location: the
uno-actu-principle
The client has to ‘co-operate’ to make the service successful:
Co-Production

Smiling and
humour is good for
our well-being
However: being
EXPECTED to smile
all day is a different
story!
Dieter Zapf14 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Emotion Work / Emotional Labour
Occurs in interactions with customers or clients
Organisations expect that employees behave in a certain
way in these interactions
This implies to display certain emotions based on so-called
display rules
The ‘friendly smile’ becomes a job
requirement!
Dieter Zapf15 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
First study of sociologist Arlie Russel Hochschild (1983):
Flight Attendants of Delta Airlines
Business man: Let’s have a smile.
Flight attendant: Okay. I’ll tell you what, first you smile and then
I’ll smile, okay?
Business man: smiles
Flight attendant: Good. Now hold that for 15 hours. walks away
Emotion Work / Emotional Labour
Dieter Zapf16 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Defined as
the paid work which
requires the regulation of one’s own emotions
to display an organisationally desired emotion in mimics, gestures and voice,
independent of whether or not this corresponds to the inner feelings (after Hochschild, 1983)

Framework Model of Service Work in Organisations
Dieter Zapf22 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Job Demands in the History of Work Psychology
Physical Demands
Cognitive Demands
Emotional Demands
“Muscles Work“, Environmental factors (noise, heat, etc.)
Activation of cognitive resources; action control: goal setting, planning, execution, feedback processing
Activation of emotional resources; perception, appraisal, display and control of emotions
In Service Occupations:
Dieter Zapf23 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Dimensions of Emotion Work - Emotional Requirements
Requirement to display positive emotions
Item example: „Does it occur in your job that you have to express pleasant emotions towards clients?” (very often – very rarely/never)
Requirement to display negative emotions
Item example: „Does it occur in your job that you have to express unpleasant emotions towards clients?” (very often – very rarely/never)
Requirement to display neutrality
Item example: „How often do you yourself have to come across as being neutral and impartial when dealing with clients?” (very often – very rarely/never)
Requirement to display sympathy emotions
Item example: „Please mark how often you are required to display them when working with clients - sympathy” (very often – very rarely/never)
Requirement to be sensitive to emotions of others
Item example: „Is it important in your job to know, how clients feel?” (very often – very rarely/never)
Instrument: Frankfurt Emotion Work Scales FEWS 4.2Zapf, Werner, Holz, Fischbach & Dormann (submitted)
Dieter Zapf24 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Emotional Dissonance
The requirement of the organisation to display emotions in interactions with customers, clients, students, etc. in mimics, gestures and voice which are not felt in that particular moment.
The dissonance between displayed and felt emotions (Rafaeli & Sutton, 1987)
Item examples“How often does it occur in your job that one has to display positive emotions while feeling indifferent?”
“How often does it occur in your job that one has to display positive emotions which do not correspond to what is felt in this situation?”
Instrument: Frankfurt Emotion Work Scales FEWS 4.2Zapf, Werner, Holz, Fischbach & Dormann (submitted)
Dieter Zapf25 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Emotion Work Control
Autonomy with regard to display rules end emotional requirements
Item examples“How often can you decide for yourself on as to which emotions to display towards the client? ?”
“Person A has strict instructions from the company on how to deal with his/her own feelings and those of the clients.
Person B has hardly any instructions from the company on how to deal with either his/her own feelings nor those of the clients
Which one of these two jobs is most similar to yours? ”

Burnout
Burnout(Maslach Burnout Inventory)

Depersonalization
the tendency to treat clients like objects; becoming indifferent and apathetic with regard to clients
Personal Accomplishment
the feeling of having energy to do things and of being able to meet one’s aspirations
Emotional Labour

Why is Emotional Dissonance Interesting?
Although hypothesised, emotional demands did not play a role in empirical studies in the prediction of burnout for a long time (see., e.g., Lee & Ashforth, 1996; Schaufeli & Enzmann, 1998)
Quantitative indicators describing interactions with customers (no. of customers, frequency of service interaction; time working with customers or clients) tended to show no correlation with burnout (Schaufeli & Enzmann, 1998; Zapf, 2002)
Qualitative indicators such as verbal customer aggression predict burnout are strong predictors (Dormann & Zapf, 2004), but are of relevance only for a minority (<20%; i.e., many report not to be exposed to customer aggression)
In contrast, emotional dissonance is a sensitive qualitative indicator to describe service interactions
Dieter Zapf44 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
The Status of Emotional Dissonance
Is Emotional Dissonance
a Stressor or
a Stress Reaction?
A characteristic of the situation/ environment that has an impact on the individual
An individual reaction elicited by a stressor and as such a characteristic of
the individual
Dieter Zapf45 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
The Status of Emotional Dissonance
•Emotional Dissonance as job requirement (Hackman, 1971)
4-dimensional model of Morris & Feldman (1996) Pugliesi (1999): self-focused emotional labour Abraham (1998): Difference scores Schaubroeck & Jones (2000): requirement to suppress negative emotional efference Zapf et al., (1999): regulation problem
•Emotional Dissonance as psychological/behavioural strategy
Brotheridge & Lee (2003) and Brotheridge & Grandey (2002): surface acting and deep acting
Dieter Zapf46 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
The Status of Variables in the Stress Process
Situation AppraisalCoping/
BehaviourOutcome
ReappraisalHow often in your job do you have to display emotions that do not agreewith your true
feelings?
How much do you feel
hampered by having to express
emotions you don’t feel?
I feel exhausted because I have to express emotions which I don‘t feelHow often do
you express emotions which you do not feel
at that moment?
Dieter Zapf47 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
How can the Status of Emotional Dissonance as a Job Requirement be Justified
Emotion theory: Inter-individual differences stronger for regulation, but less for the experience of emotion
Emotional dissonance can be induced in experiments
Emotional Dissonance depends on
The frequency of interactions
Existence and Monitoring of display rules
Autonomy with regard to display rules
Quality of service interaction (conflicts, negative customer behaviour)
Dieter Zapf48 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
What we know so far about Emotional Dissonance and Burnout ...
In cross-sectional studies, emotional dissonance is associated with emotional exhaustion (around .30) and depersonalisation (around .30) (Zapf, 2002, HRMR)
But there is a lack of longitudinal field studies which allow the investigation of cause and effect
Dieter Zapf49 Hier wird Wissen Wirklichkeit
Hypotheses: Causal and Reversed Effects
According to Hochschild (1983): Causal Effects
Reverse Effects: Employees under strain are less able to show the required positive emotions. Thus strain increases emotional dissonance

Instruments
Frankfurt Emotion Work Scales (FEWS 4.0, Zapf et al., 1999; 2005)
The Requirement to Display Positive Emotions refer to the requirement to show pleasant emotions (e.g. "In your job how often does it occur that you have to display pleasant emotions towards your clients?").
The Requirement to Display Negative Emotions This scale asks for the necessity of displaying and dealing with unpleasant emotions (example item: "How often does it occur in your job that you have to display unpleasant emotions towards your clients?").
Sensitivity Requirements
This scale examines whether empathy or knowledge about clients' current feelings are required by the job (e.g. "Does your job require paying attention to the feelings of your clients?").
Emotional Dissonance
refers to the display of unfelt emotions and to the suppression of felt but organizationally undesired emotions (e g. "How often does it occur in your job that one has to display positive emotions which do not correspond to what is felt in this situation?”)

Method
Instruments:
• State-Trait Anger Inventory STAXI (German version: Schwenkmezger, Hodapp, 1993)• Surface acting, deep acting, venting (adapted from Grandey, 2003)• PANAS Negative Affectivity NA scale German version (Krohne et al., 1992)• Heart rate• Verbal fluency: observer rating (trained observers rated videos of the experiment) (Interrater agreement 83%) • Memory test: participants were asked for standardised information provided by the confederate in the experiment (how much information recalled; e.g.: where did the customer want to travel?
How much money was she charged?, etc.): % of correct answers
