Abstract:

In order to reduce the negative effects of negative emotions on construction workers and to explore the intervention effect of moral support on negative emotions and pathways of influence on unsafe behavior, the model of influence mechanism between negative emotions, safety ability, unsafe motivation and unsafe behaviors and the model of intervention mechanism of moral support were constructed. Based on the survey data, SPSS and AMOS software were used for model fitting. The results show that negative emotion has a significant negative effect on safety ability and a significant positive effect on unsafe motivation and unsafe behaviors. Emotional support has a significant negative effect on negative emotions. After the intervention of emotional support, the direct effect path of negative emotions on safety ability and unsafe motivation disappears, and the positive effect of negative emotions on unsafe motivation is reduced. The positive effect of negative emotions on unsafe motives is reduced, the positive effect of safety ability on unsafe motivation is enhanced, and the negative effect of safety ability and unsafe motives on unsafe behaviors is reduced.

Key words: emotional support, construction workers, negative emotions, intervention mechanism, unsafe behaviors, safety ability
