This study examined the dimensionality or factor structure of the General Work Stress Scale (GWSS), which is a brief measure of subjectively experienced or felt work stress. The responses of two independent groups of adult workers were subjected to maximum likelihood factor analysis. In both groups a three factor solution provided the best fit with the data. A higher order factor analysis with an orthogonal Schmid-Leiman transformation showed that in both groups, responses to the items are dominated by a general factor, which might be labelled General Work Stress. Three minor group factors were identified: a motivational factor reflected by a desire to leave the organisation, an affective factor reflected by a tendency to worry, and a cognitive factor reflected by concentration and attentional difficulties. Overall, the results provide support for the construct validity of the GWSS as a measure of subjectively experienced work stress.

Menghabiskan waktu kerja menggunakan internet yang tidak ada kaitanya dengan pekerjaan merupakan perhatian utama bagi perusahaan. Penggunaan internet yang tidak ada kaitannya dengan pekerjaan saat jam kerja berlangsung disebut dengan cyberloafing. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah kepuasan kerja dapat memoderasi pengaruh stres kerja terhadap cyberloafing pada karyawan di Surabaya. Penelitian ini bertipe penelitian kuantitatif dengan jumlah subjek penelitian sebanyak 174 responden yang tersebar di Surabaya. Alat pengumpulan data berupa general work stress scale, job satisfaction survey, dan skala cyberloafing. Analisis data dilakukan dengan teknik Moderated Regression Analysis. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa stres kerja berpengaruh langsung terhadap cyberloafing. Sedangkan kepuasan kerja tidak memoderasi pengaruh stres kerja terhadap cyberloafing.

This article describes the development of the Sources of Work Stress Inventory (SWSI). Factor analyses of the generated items produced (a) a General Work Stress Scale and (b) eight Sources of Work Stress scales, namely Bureaucracy/Autonomy, Relationships, Tools and Equipment, Workload, Role Ambiguity, Work/Home Interface, Job Security and Career Advancement. Rasch rating scale analyses supported the construct validity and reliability of the scales. A multiple regression analysis confirmed the expected strong relationship between the different sources of work stress and the experience of stress in the workplace. It is concluded that the SWSI shows promise as a measure of work stress in the South African context.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Diabetic Foot Scale–Short Form (DFS-SF). The study was cross-sectional and conducted between January and October 2019 in a diabetic foot council of a university hospital. A total of 194 diabetic foot patients participated in the study. A Patient Identification Form and DFS-SF were used for data collection. Forward and backward translations were used in language validity. Expert opinions were obtained to determine the Content Validity Index. To determine construct validity, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used. Cronbach’s α internal consistency coefficient, item-scale correlation, and test-retest reliability were used to evaluate reliability. It was found that Content Validity Index was 0.97 (0.86-1.00), the factor loading of scale varied from 0.378 to 0.982, Cronbach’s α value varied from 0.81 to 0.94, and item-total correlations were between 0.30 and 0.75. The Turkish version of the DFS-SF was found valid and reliable to measure the quality of life of diabetic foot patients.
