This study aimed to explore the relationships among perceived organizational support, self-esteem, and suicidal ideation of young employees. A total of 447 unmarried employees completed the survey of perceived organizational support, Rosenberg self-esteem scale, and suicide ideation scale. The results revealed that perceived organizational support, self-esteem, and suicidal ideation were significantly correlated with each other. Stepwise regression analysis and path analysis both indicated that self-esteem partially mediated the effect of perceived organizational support on suicidal ideation.

In this study, the effects of parental attitudes, self-esteem, need for social approval and irrational beliefs were examined on the speech anxiety of university in Turkey. Correlational survey model was employed in the study, and the participants were 615 Turkish university students. The relationships between the variables were analysed by establishing a structural regression model. Irrational Beliefs Scale, Need for Social Approval Scale, Speech Anxiety Scale for Teacher Candidates, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Parental Attitudes Scale were employed to collect data in this study. The analyses showed that the model had a good fit to the research data [ᵡ2=463.806, sd=201, ᵡ2/sd=2.307, CFI=.961, TLI=.951, IFI=.961, RFI=.916, NFI=.933, AGFI=.912, GFI=.936, RMSEA (%95 GA)= .046, SRMR=.058]. Irrational beliefs, self-esteem, and need for social approval were found to have a full mediator role in the relationship between parental attitudes and speech anxiety. In order to reduce speech anxiety, individuals' self-esteem should be improved, while reducing their need for social approval and eliminating their irrational beliefs. However, family-oriented projects should be carried out considering the effect of parental attitudes associated with these variables. Bu araştırmada, eğitim fakültesi öğrencilerinin konuşma kaygısı üzerinde anne baba tutumları, benlik saygısı, sosyal onay ihtiyacı ve akılcı olmayan inançların etkisi araştırılmıştır. Araştırma, ilişkisel tarama modelinde bir araştırma olup, araştırmada 615 üniversite öğrenci yer almaktadır. Değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler yapısal regresyon modeli kurularak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada Akılcı Olmayan İnanç Ölçeği, Sosyal Onay İhtiyacı Ölçeği, Öğretmen Adaylarına Yönelik Konuşma Kaygısı Ölçeği, Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği ve Anne Baba Tutumları Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda modele ilişkin uyum iyiliği değerleri modelin mükemmel uyum sağladığını göstermektedir [ᵡ2=463.806, sd=201, ᵡ2/sd=2.307, CFI=.961, TLI=.951, IFI=.961, RFI=.916, NFI=.933, AGFI=.912, GFI=.936, RMSEA (%95 GA)= .046, SRMR=.058]. Anne baba tutumları ile konuşma kaygısı arasında akılcı olmayan inançların, benlik saygısının ve sosyal onay ihtiyacının aracılık rolü bulunmaktadır. Konuşma kaygısını azaltmak için bireylerin benlik saygılarının artırılması, sosyal onay ihtiyacının ve akılcı olmayan inançlarının azaltılması gerekmektedir. Ancak bu değişkenlerle ilişkili olan anne baba tutumlarının etkisine yönelik aile temelli çalışmalar yapılması gerekmektedir. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0740/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to measure how orthorexic tendencies relate to age, self-esteem, and spirituality. We conducted the study on a sample of Hungarian adults performing regular fitness activity. Method 175 participants completed a four-part online survey: demographics and training habits, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Eating Habits Questionnaire-Revised (EHQ-R), and one of the Spiritual Awareness questionnaire’s subscale. We performed univariate linear regression to assess the predictor role of age on orthorexic tendencies. Mediation analysis was conducted to determine the effect of self-esteem on orthorexic tendencies and the mediator role of spiritual attitudes. Results Age negatively correlated with EHQ-R, and there were no gender differences. Lower self-esteem was a predictor for orthorexic tendencies with the total effect of ß = -0.3046 (p < 0.0001). In part, this is a direct relationship, but it is mediated by spiritual awareness as well. Discussion Among frequent exercisers, strict dieting is likely to originate from a lack of self-esteem due to perfectionist standards, social comparison, and the aspiration of being in control. In case self-esteem is achieved through spiritual approaches, individuals may experience positive changes in their attitudes toward eating and their bodies as well. In the future, it is important to confirm whether the EHQ-R indicates diagnostic boundaries. Level of evidence Level V, descriptive cross-sectional study.

Abstract. The current study investigated the associations of psychological resources, social comparisons, and temporal comparisons with general wellbeing. The sample included 142 community participants (47.9% men; age range 23–83 years), who compared themselves with others, and with their younger selves, on eight dimensions (e.g., physical health, resilience). They also completed questionnaires assessing psychological resources of mastery and self-esteem, and three components of subjective wellbeing: life satisfaction and negative and positive affect. The main results showed that high levels of psychological resources contributed to wellbeing, with self-enhancing social and temporal comparisons moderating the effects of resources on certain wellbeing components. Specifically, under low levels of mastery or self-esteem self-enhancing social or temporal comparisons were related to either higher life satisfaction or positive affect. The results highlight the role of resources and comparisons in promoting people’s wellbeing, and suggest that self-enhancing comparisons function as cognitive coping mechanisms when psychological resources are low.
