Abstract：
Childhood adversity stains the past of millions of working adults worldwide. The impact on health and well-being is substantial-a now-acknowledged public health crisis. Yet, research in the organizational sciences has failed to recognize the burden that individuals with this difficult history carry with them into the workforce. By synthesizing an interdisciplinary body of scholarship into a cohesive theoretical framework, we provide a foundation for emerging work in occupational health psychology. Empirically, across two single-level multiwave studies, we demonstrate the importance of adversity in one\'s childhood and its impact on the workplace specifically showing that child adversity, directly and indirectly, impacts worker attitudes and discretionary behaviors. Further, providing one of the few examinations of stress proliferation theory in the workplace, we demonstrate adulthood adversity as an essential mediating mechanism that leads to these work outcomes. From an applied perspective, our results highlight a need to focus on the healing and recovery of adult survivors as they work toward breaking the chains of the past in their lives and at work. In presenting this life course perspective on organizational attitudes and behaviors, our work offers a unique and vital contribution to occupational health theory, practice, and research.

摘要：
童年的逆境玷污了全世界数百万在职成年人的过去。对健康和福祉的影响是巨大的-现在公认的公共卫生危机。然而，组织科学的研究未能认识到具有这种艰难历史的个人在劳动力中的负担。通过将跨学科的学术体系综合成一个有凝聚力的理论框架，我们为新兴的职业健康心理学工作奠定了基础。根据经验,在两个单水平多波研究中，我们证明了逆境在一个人的童年及其对工作场所的影响的重要性，直接和间接,影响工人的态度和自由裁量行为。Further,提供工作场所中为数不多的压力扩散理论检查之一，我们证明了成年逆境是导致这些工作成果的重要中介机制.从应用的角度来看，我们的研究结果突出表明,需要关注成年幸存者的康复和康复,因为他们努力打破过去生活和工作中的锁链.在提出这种关于组织态度和行为的生命历程观点时，我们的工作为职业健康理论提供了独特而重要的贡献，实践,和研究。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2024APA，保留所有权利)。
