  • Abstract
    The aim of this research was to jointly test effects of work stressors and coping strategies on job performance among employees in the Greater China region. A self- administered survey was conducted to collect data from three major cities in the region, namely Beijing, Hong Kong, and Taipei (N = 380). We found that (1) work stressors were negatively related to job performance. (2) Chinese positive coping strategies (namely, active action and social support) were positively related to job performance. (3) Chinese passive adaptation coping behaviors were negatively related to job performance.
