...Victoria, Australia Rosen College of Hospitality Management, University of Central Florida, Florida, FL, USA SHTM, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, Hong Kong a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Burnout Occupational commitment Emotional intelligence Emotional labour Organizational citizenship behaviour Task performance Moderation a b s t r a c t This study examines how emotional intelligence and occupational commitment have a moderating effect on the relationship between emotional labour and its potential outcomes. Two acting strategies reflect emotional labour, namely surface and deep acting, with burnout and performance as the prospective outcomes. Burnout is operationalized into emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and diminished personal achievement; whereas performance is operationalized into task performance and organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB). The study investigates employee responses from several tourism and hospitality organizations in Florida, USA. The results show that emotional labour relates most positively to task performance and to burnout in the case of surface acting. Tests of moderation show that occupational commitment enhances performance outcomes by facilitating emotional labour strategies, and the prevalence of higher emotional intelligence amongst employees reduces burnout. These findings contribute to the literature on emotional labour by...

...months postdischarge, resulting in significant health care costs.2,3 Indeed, more than one million hospitalizations attributed to HF cost the patient and United States health care system over $27 billion a year.1 Hospitalizations related to HF are complicated by the aging process, comorbidities, and psychosocial concerns that affect successful management.2 In a study of patient outcomes post– hospital discharge, Naylor and colleagues4 demonstrated that the use of advanced practice nurses (APNs) was effective in improving outcomes for patients with HF. The feasibility of adapting this approach is limited, however; costs for home visits by an APN are high, a shortage of APNs employed in home care exists, and funding for home care has decreased with the Medicare Prospective Payment System.5 An alternative strategy for promoting self-management of HF is the use of electronic home monitoring (EHM). EHM is a form of telemedicine in which medical/nursing management interventions are provided to individuals at a distance from the health care provider.6 The primary objective of this pilot study was to examine the effectiveness of postdischarge telemonitoring by an APN on reducing subsequent hospital readmissions, emergency department (ED) visits, and costs and increasing the time between discharge and readmission among older adults with HF. Secondary objectives were to examine depressive symptomatology, quality of life, caregiver mastery, and social...
