Abstract: In order to explore the mechanism of negative emotions and mind wandering working on leadership non-contingent punishments and unsafe behaviors, a hypothetical model of relationships among them is established on the basis of literature research. 427 miners were randomly selected for survey using leadership non-contingency punishment scale, negative emotion scale, mind wandering scale and unsafe behavior scale, and verification was conducted for hypothetical model by using correlation analysis and mediation effect test. The results show that non-contingency punishment can not only directly influence unsafe behaviors, but also indirectly affect them through mediating effects of negative emotions or mind wandering and chain mediating effects of them. Effective intervention in leaders' non-contingency punishments, negative emotions and mind wandering can reduce frequency of unsafe behaviors as well as human errors.

Key words: leadership non-contingent punishment, unsafe behavior, negative emotion, mind wandering, chain mediation
