Measures
Work resources. Seven items were used to measure respondents’ perceptions of resources acquired at work. Respondents indicated the extent to which their company provided them with extra financial resources, in addition to salary, including health, retirement, unemployment and housing allowances. A sample item is: “My company provides me with additional life insurance endowment”. The Cronbach's alpha was 0.89. Two within-construct item covariances between health and retirement insurances were measured. EFA Results suggest that these seven items are loaded on one factor, explaining 61.79 percent of variance. Civic engagement. The survey measured civic engagement by asking participants to report the frequency of their participation in five different civic activities in the last 12 months, including local associations, arts and recreation activities, religious services, parentchild campaigns and volunteering/philanthropy activities. A sample item is: “During my spare time, I take part in philanthropy/volunteering (activities to help the poor, social relief) other than in my workplace”. The Cronbach's alpha was 0.77. EFA results suggest that these five items are loaded on one factor, explaining 54.43 percent of variance. Life happiness. Four items were used to measure happiness drawing on the Hills and Argyle’s scale (2002). A sample item is: “I often experience joy and elation”. The Cronbach's alpha was 0.85. EFA results suggest that these four items are loaded on one factor, explaining 48.75 percent of variance. Physical health. Four items of the short-form brief pain inventory were used to measured physical health (Cleeland & Ryan, 1994). Respondents indicated whether any physical issues/pain had interfered with their daily activities, normal work, social interaction ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 13 and sleep in the last month. A sample item is: "Did health issues interfere with your daily activities (for example walking or climbing upstairs)?" Cronbach's alpha was 0.89. The physical health score was standardized (mean = 0, SD = 1). Mental health. Five items from the simplified version of the Chinese Mental Health Inventory (Wu, 1984) were used to measure mental health. Respondents indicated whether any emotional issue had interfered with their daily activities in the last month. A sample item is: “Were you bothered by any emotional issues (anxiety, depression or anger) last month?”. The Cronbach's alpha was 0.90. Finally, the mental health score was standardized (mean = 0, SD = 1). Income. Respondents reported their annual net income. Then, following recommendations by Aiken and West (1991) and Little, Bovaird and Card (2007) regarding moderating effects, we created a new discrete variable capturing the respondents’ level of income with the following values: 1 for “low-income” if annual net income was below that of the 25th percentile of annual net income of the whole sample; 2 for “middle-income” if annual net income was between the 26th and 50th percentile; 3 for “upper-middle-income” if annual net income was between the 51st and 75th percentile; and 4 for “high-income” if annual net income was above the 75th percentile. Control variables. We also controlled for age, marriage (1 for married and 0 for otherwise), gender (1 for female and 0 for male), educational level (1 for primary school, 2 for high school, 3 for college and 4 for post-graduate) and working hours per week. Analysis To control for common method bias, we employed the Harman’s single factor test.
