This document summarizes a master's thesis research project that examined the relationship between daily need for recovery, time spent in off-job activities, and daily well-being. The study used a day reconstruction method to survey 112 participants over 351 days. The results showed that higher daily workload leads to greater need for recovery, which leads to less time spent on social off-job activities. Additionally, need for recovery and time spent on physical activities interact to impact end-of-day well-being, such that physical activities may help restore well-being on high workload days with greater need for recovery. The conclusions discuss limitations and opportunities for future research to expand the models.
