Effect Model

Background: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is related to psychiatric comorbidities. It is not clear whether the relationship is affected by modifiable factors.Objectives: To investigate whether the effect of CSU on anxiety and depression in adolescents is mediated by the symptoms of itching and sleep disturbance.Methods: Questionnaire survey was conducted among newly enrolled college students. Dermatologists diagnose skin diseases, including CSU, during health examination. Anxiety and depression were measured by the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire, respectively. Sleep quality was measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. The symptoms of itching were measured by the numeric rating scale. According to the hypothesis, the mediating effect model was put forward and the structural equation model is used to build the mediation effect model. The mediation effect model was proposed according to the hypothesis and established using a structural equation model.Results: A total of 2,358 students with no history of systemic disease and no pruritus disease (except CSU) were included in the analysis. A total of 393 CSU patients were included, and 1,965 healthy controls were selected based on age and sex matching. CSU was significantly associated with both anxiety and depression when the symptoms of itching and sleep quality were not modeled. A mediation model was proposed as CSU → itching → sleep disturbance → anxiety or depression. Itching and sleep quality mediated 65.4 and 77.6% of CSU's effects on anxiety and depression, respectively, and CSU had no significant direct effect on anxiety or depression in the mediation models.Conclusions: The associations of CSU with anxiety and depression were mediated by the symptoms of itching and sleep disturbance. Effectively reducing the symptoms of itching thereby could increase natural sleep, which can further treat the emotional disorders among patients with CSU.

Old City

Using a structural equation model, this study explores the complex influence mechanism between the place experience and satisfaction of the historical and cultural blocks in the old city of Beijing and the mechanism differences between different types. Based on the data obtained in the questionnaire survey, this study uses the structural equation model method to propose a theoretical model of the relationship between place experience and satisfaction, and through path analysis, the theoretical model of the path relationship between the dimensions of placeness, sense of place, and satisfaction is estimated and tested. Through the mathematical verification of the structural model, on the basis of establishing the final theoretical model, the hypothesis to be proved is further verified. This study also uses the bootstrap method to test the significance of the mediating effect of place experience and uses multiple-group analysis to try to explore the moderating role of residents’ and tourists’ identity types in the model. The study found that there are multiple correlations among placeness, sense of place, and place satisfaction in the historical and cultural blocks in the old city of Beijing. The placeness is the foundation and the sense of place is the intermediary variable, which both affect satisfaction; furthermore, tourists and residents have differences in the mechanism of placeness and sense of place on satisfaction. On the one hand, the perception of placeness directly affects satisfaction, and on the other hand, the sense of place has an indirect effect on satisfaction. The positive effects of tourists' placeness on sense of place and sense of place on satisfaction are greater than that of residents. However, the positive effect of residents' placeness on satisfaction is greater than that of tourists.

Main Effects

The study relies on the assumption that one of the main effects of phycological empowerment composed by attributes like self-esteem, locus of control, and assertiveness, is increased autonomy. The theoretical arguments are tested based on a structural equation model that allows estimating hypothetical relationships simultaneously. Additionally, differences in means between women and men are estimated for each phycological variable and the hypothetical model is tested separately to both sexes. 1,569 people (56% women) from five Mexican States compose the sample. The average age is 29 years and 59% of the sample has college degrees. The results suggest that psychological empowerment is strongly related to autonomy.   How to cite this article: Muñoz-Márquez, C. E., Morales Barrera, R., & Domínguez Espinosa, A. del C. (2021).

Background: The number of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is increasing. Medication treatment is of great importance to stabilize blood glucose. Previous studies have reported that neuroticism, self-efficacy, and social support are factors associated with medication adherence, but few studies have fully investigated the mechanisms between these factors and medication adherence in patients with T2D.Purpose: To explore the prevalence of medication adherence and the factors associated with medication adherence in patients with T2D.Methods: A cross-sectional study consisting of 483 patients with T2D was conducted from July to December 2020. Questionnaires containing sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8), the neuroticism subscale of the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised Short Scale (EPQ-RS), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and the Diabetes Management Self-efficacy Scale (DMSES) were used to collect data. The structural equation model (SEM) was used to test the hypotheses.Results: This study included 305 (63.1%) medication adherence and 178 (36.9%) medication non-adherence patients with T2D. Social support directly influenced medication adherence (β = 0.115, P = 0.029) and indirectly influenced medication adherence through self-efficacy (β = 0.044, P = 0.016). Self-efficacy directly influenced medication adherence (β = 0.139, P = 0.023). Neuroticism indirectly affected medication adherence through social support (β = −0.027, P = 0.023) and self-efficacy (β = −0.019, P = 0.014). Moreover, there was a sequential mediating effect of social support and self-efficacy on the relationship between neuroticism and medication adherence (β = −0.010, P = 0.012). After controlling for age and gender, similar results were obtained. The model fit indices showed a good fit.Conclusions: The medication adherence of patients with T2D needs to be improved. Neuroticism, social support, and self-efficacy had direct or indirect effects on medication adherence in patients with T2D. Healthcare providers should comprehensively develop intervention programs based on neuroticism, social support, and self-efficacy to improve medication adherence in patients with T2D.

Member Exchange

Some employees perceive that supervisors do not accurately reflect employees’ performance or effectively differentiate among employees’ performances during performance appraisals (PAs). Other employees believe the performance feedback they receive is not valuable for supporting their career development (CD). Leader–member exchange (LMX) and the distributive and interactional justice dimensions of organizational justice theories comprised the theoretical frameworks in this study for examining the significance of the relationships among LMX and employee–supervisor relationships (ESRs) and those relationships’ potential influence on employees’ CD through the PA process. Participants consisted of 44 defense contractor employees in the United States. Results from partial least squares analysis for the structural equation model indicated significant (<em>p </em>< .01) positive relationships between LMX, ESR, PA, and CD. Furthermore, the results indicated that a positive relationship between LMX and ESR can influence employees’ CD through the mediating effect of employees’ perceptions of their PAs. The implications for positive social change include the potential to improve communications between employees and supervisors for benefiting employees’ CD for improving employees’ families’ quality of life and employees’ contributions to their communities

This study investigates the effects of perceived organizational support (POS) on meaning of work and employee creativity on PT. CIPTAHUTAMA JAYA. Data was collected through a survey of 100 employees, and structural equational model (SEM) was used to test the research hypotheses. The results indicate that POS have positive effects on the meaning of work and employee creativity. While the mediating effect of meaning of work on the relationship between POS and employee creativity is only partially supported. Penelitian ini menginvestigasi efek dari dukungan organisasi terhadap makna kerja dan kreativitas karyawan pada PT.
