This article discusses possibilities for a more complete analysis of psychological demands at work with respect to the concept of regulation hindrances. As part of the RHIA-instrument – an instrument to identify regulation barriers at work – this concept has proven itself for the identification of psychological demands in a variety of different work contexts. Two extensions of the RHIA-instrument seem to be promising for a more complete analysis of job demands and were explored through a qualitative interview study: 1) A more ample focus of analysis by including negative work events related to task interdependences and 2) the analysis of emotions caused by regulation barriers. Results indicate that an explicit focus on task interdependences enables the identification of „new“ regulation barriers and therefore a more complete analysis of job demands. Furthermore, regulation barriers tend to be related to negative emotional experiences. Therefore, regulation barriers not only cause an additional effort for the job incumbents but also could impair their subjective well-being at work.
