The present research focused on the relationship between sleep quality and employee creativity, as well as the mediating effects of work vitality and creative self-efficacy. A sample of 506 employees was enrolled in the present research to fill out the inventory of sleep quality scale, work vitality scale, creative self-efficacy scale, and employee creativity scale. The relationships between sleep quality, creativity, work vitality and creative self-efficacy were significantly positive. Employee sleep quality, work vitality and creative self-efficacy all positively predicted employee creativity. The mediating effects of work vitality and creative self-efficacy between employee sleep quality and employee creativity were significant, and the chain mediating effects of work vitality and creative self-efficacy were significant. Employee sleep quality directly predicted employee creativity, and employee creativity could also be indirectly influenced by sleep quality through the mediating paths of work vitality and creative self-efficacy.
