Moderating Role

From the perspective of social information processing theory, we investigated the multilevel mediating effect of surface acting in the relationship between service innovation and frontline employees’ mental health, then further tested the multilevel moderating roles of positive and negative group emotional contagion. We used the experience sampling method to conduct a survey with 572 employees of 71 hospitality and catering companies in China. Hierarchical linear modeling results showed that service innovation negatively affected participants’ mental health via surface acting. Further, positive group emotional contagion positively moderated the relationship between surface acting and mental health. Thus, positive group emotional contagion alleviated the negative influence of surface acting on mental health. The moderating role of negative group emotional contagion was, however, nonsignificant. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed and recommendations for future research are made.

Burnout is progressively seen as an issue in the field of social work however there is limited knowledge about moderating influence of social support on burnout and the mental health of social workers. The present study intended to explore the impact of burnout on mental health and the connection between burnout and the mental health of social workers. Additionally, it also investigates the moderating effects of social support in this relationship. For the study, 300 subjects (188 males, 112 females) were approached by using the purposive sampling technique. The results of the study revealed that burnout has an impact on mental health and there is a significant positive correlation between burnout and mental health. Findings showed a weak effect of social support on the relationship between burnout and mental health. Moreover, the study revealed no gender differences in burnout, social support, and mental health. The outcomes involve a wide scope of interventions pointed toward advancing mental health among social workers for policymakers.

ABSTRACT Background: The identification of protection factors regarding older adults’ mental health is essential. Self-compassion, the capacity to be kind towards the self during challenging times, may be one such factor. Although still scarce, some research in this field has already been conducted with older adults. Our research question was the following: what is currently known about the role of self-compassion in the psychological (mal)adjustment of older adults? Objectives: To review any study designs, in any setting, where self-compassion and any indicators of psychological (mal)adjustment were assessed in participants aged ≥60 years. Design: A scoping review of English, Portuguese, and Spanish published and unpublished materials, using the EBSCOhost Research and PubMed databases and reference lists. Search terms included self-compassion, self compassion, older adults, elderly, seniors, and geriatrics. After screening and selection of the studies, we charted the relevant data. Results: Eleven published studies (2012–2018) were reviewed. Self-compassion was associated with, and a predictor of, diverse mental health indicators in older adults. Self-compassion was also associated with indicators of physical health, moderated the relationship between physical health indicators and mental health indicators, and mediated the relationship between diverse mental health indicators. Results were obtained with participants of different nationalities and age. All studies had a cross-sectional design, and most studies recruited well-functioning community residents. Conclusions: Self-compassion is beneficial for the psychological adjustment of older adults and may also benefit their biological functioning. Self-compassion seems particularly relevant for those experiencing more negative life events. Studies with more robust methodologies are needed in order to replicate these findings.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on individuals’ mental health. Individuals have tended to obtain information about the pandemic from social media. With the aim of exploring the relationship between subjective happiness and social media usage during the COVID-19 pandemic and the possible moderating role of resilience in this relationship, we asked 277 young adults in Iran to complete a number of online questionnaires, including a demographic questionnaire, a survey on social media usage, a subjective happiness scale and a brief resilience scale. The results showed that there is a significant negative correlation between social media usage and subjective happiness. In terms of the different degrees to which resilience can act as a moderator, our findings showed that when resilience is average or high, the relationship between social media usage and subjective happiness is significant. This study has implications for mental health professionals seeking knowledge about happiness during periods of adversity.
