• Waking Up on the Right or Wrong Side of the Bed: Start-of-Workday Mood, Work Events, Employee Affect, and Performance (2011, background): “Conceptual frameworks such as affective events theory also emphasize the importance of focusing on within-person affective experiences (Beal, Weiss, Barros, & MacDermid, 2005; Weiss & Beal, 2005; Weiss & Cropanzano, 1996).”
• Self-Compassion When Coping With Venture Obstacles: Loving-Kindness Meditation and Entrepreneurial Fear of Failure (2019, background): “Indeed, drawing on appraisal theory (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984) or affective event theory (Beal & Weiss, 2005; Weiss & Cropanzano, 1996), studies have conceived of fear of failure as being the outcome of an appraisal process (Cacciotti & Hayton, 2015; Jenkins et al., 2014; Morris et al., 2012).”
• Keep Calm and Carry On: Emotion Regulation in Entrepreneurs’ Learning from Failure (2018, background): “The first phase determines the valence of affect (i.e., positive vs. negative), by evaluating the event’s impact on the individual’s well-being, and the activation level (i.e., strong vs. weak) of the affect, by gauging the importance of the event (Weiss & Beal, 2005).”
• Framing the Entrepreneurial Experience (2012, background): “In assessing the impact on behavior of affective reactions to events, AET draws a distinction between affect-driven and judgment-driven behaviors (Weiss & Beal, 2005).”
• An Affective Events Model of Charismatic Leadership Behavior: A Review, Theoretical Integration, and Research Agenda (2009, background): “Future research addressing this issue (e.g., through the use of experience sampling methods; Scollon, Kim-Prieto, & Diener, 2003) may enable leadership scholars to move beyond between-person designs and adopt a within-person perspective (Weiss & Beal, 2005).”
• Current Emotion Research in Organizational Behavior (2011, methodology): “In summary, studies using experience sampling methods have consistently supported AET (see Weiss & Beal, 2005, for a more extensive review).”
• A reconceptualization of fear of failure in entrepreneurship (2016, background): “That is, while the conceptualization we propose is consistent with the concept of fear of failure as a temporary affective state, affective events theory offers the opportunity to reconcile this approach with dispositional approaches (Weiss and Beal, 2005).”
• Employee Green Behavior (2015, background): “Such responses can over time influence workplace attitudes (Weiss & Beal, 2005) and perhaps, especially in the case of EGBs, environmental attitudes.”
• What Makes Us Enthusiastic, Angry, Feeling at Rest or Worried? Development and Validation of an Affective Work Events Taxonomy Using Concept Mapping Methodology (2015, background): “Only a few studies have tested the core proposition of affective events as mechanisms in the relationship between characteristics of the work environment and job attitudes (Weiss and Beal 2005).”
