The Relationship

The present research aimed to test whether community involvement moderates the relationship between sense of coherence (SOC) and driver stress among online ridesharing drivers. The study used a quantitative design to collect data via questionnaires. All 112 participants were male and chose online ridesharing as their primary occupation. Participants were assessed using the Work Sense of Coherence Scale and Driver Stress Scale, a subscale of Driving Behavior Inventory. Community involvement was measured with a close-ended question in the demographic section of the questionnaire, with dichotomous options provided (1 = community participation; 0 = no community participation). Collected data were analyzed using JASP to examine the moderating effect. The results of this study showed that community involvement moderates the relationship between SOC and driver stress in online ridesharing drivers.

The Relationship

Research on coping, sense of coherence, burnout, and work engagement is well documented in western countries. However, a void of studies exists on how coping mechanisms can moderate the relationship among sense of coherence, burnout, and work engagement in a manufacturing company in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The objective of this research was to examine the moderating effect of coping (COP) in the relationship between sense of coherence (SOC), burnout (BO), and work engagement (WE). The study employed a quantitative research approach, while participants were recruited through convenience sampling. A total of 197 employees (n = 197; females 40%) who are permanently employed in a manufacturing organisation in the DRC participated in the study voluntarily. The results indicate that coping related positively to a sense of coherence. Moreover, the results indicate that sense of coherence and work engagement related negatively to burnout. Furthermore, the results show that coping acted as a moderator in the relationships between variables. The study adds value to the WE theory by suggesting that an employee who has a high level of COP, high SOC, low level of BO, will positively engage, perform, and be productive.

Körperliche Beschwerden

Bei türkischstämmigen Migranten ist die Inanspruchnahme psychotherapeutischer Behandlung häufig mit somatoformen Beschwerden verknüpft. Zur besseren Objektivierung dieser Beschwerden wurde das Screening für Somatoforme Störungen (SOMS), das körperliche Beschwerden nicht organischer Genese erfasst, in die türkische Sprache übersetzt und anhand einer Stichprobe von 114 türkischsprachigen Patienten einer muttersprachlichen psychosomatischen Ambulanz sowie einer Gruppe von 105 psychisch unauffälligen türkischen Migranten validiert. Die türkische Version des SOMS wies eine hohe interne Konsistenz (von α = 0.78 bis α = 0.93), eine hohe konkurrente und divergente Validität (von r = .37 bis r = –.48) anhand von Depressivitätsscores nach dem Beck-Depressions-Inventar und dem Gesamtscore des Kohärenzgefühls nach der Sense of Coherence Scale sowie eine hohe diskriminante Validität auf. Mit der türkischen Version des SOMS wird ein verständliches, reliables und valides Instrument zur Erfassung somatoformer Symptome bei türkischen Migranten vorgelegt.

Abstract. The present study introduces a revised Sense of Coherence (SOC) scale, a new conceptualization and operationalization of the resilience indicator SOC. It outlines the scale development and aims for testing its reliability, factor structure, and validity. Literature on Antonovsky’s SOC (SOC-A) was critically reviewed to identify needs for improving the scale. The scale was investigated in two samples. Sample 1 consisted of 334 bereaved participants, Sample 2 of 157 healthy controls. The revised SOC Scale, SOC-A, and theoretically relevant questionnaires were applied. Explorative and confirmatory factor analyses established a three-factor structure in both samples. The revised SOC Scale showed significant but discriminative associations with related constructs, including self-efficacy, posttraumatic growth, and neuroticism. The revised measure was significantly associated with psychological health indicators, including persistent grief, depression, and anxiety, but not to the extent as the previous SOC-A. Stability over time was sufficient. The study provides psychometric support for the revised SOC conceptualization and scale. It has several advantages over the previous SOC-A scale (unique variance, distinct factor structure, stability). The scale could be used for clinical and health psychological testing or research into the growing field of studies on resilience over the life span.
