The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the role of different psychosocial working conditions as indicators of work-related anger experience in a longitudinal perspective. Specifically, we focus on the role of workplace mobbing as a crucial factor under debate (Steffgen, Sischka & Schmidt, 2016). To this end, two waves of the Quality-of-Work-Survey Luxembourg were considered (Sischka & Steffgen, 2015). Each wave is a representative sample of 1526 respectively 1506 employees working in Luxembourg (data collection via computer-assisted telephone interviewing). 702 employees participated in both surveys (aged from 18 to 64 years; 53.8 % male). All working conditions at T1 showed zero-order correlations with anger experience at T2. More specifically, hierarchical regression analyses revealed that feedback, and mental demands at work but not mobbing were incrementally linked to work-related anger at T2 controlling for collinearity (T1). The longitudinal findings underline the importance of differential working conditions as diagnostic indicators of work-related anger.
