The Relationship

The aim of this research is to study the relationship between the body mass index and life quality of ninth grade students after controlling their self esteem values. In the research Self-Esteem Scale was used to determine the points for self-esteem and Kiddo-Kindl-Adolescent Form was used for the perceptions of life quality. The students in the study group consists of 327 (45.3%) girls and  395 (54.7%) boys, It consists of a total of 722 students,  and the average age is 15.2. When analyzed in terms of body mass index it was found out that of the students 16.8% are low weight, 70.9% are moderate and 12.3% are owerweight.  When the results obtained by the research was examined it was observed that there are meaningful relationships between body mass index (BMI) values and self-esteem and life quality  and between self-esteem and life quality. However, when the self-esteem values of the adolescent individuals were excluded within the scope of the research, the relationship between BMI and life quality points which previously show meaningful level positive relationship is almost non-existent. According to these findings the life quality of the adolescent obese may be low only if his/her self-esteem is low. The findings which obtained with this research were argued within the frames of existing research findings. ÖzetBu araştırmanın amacı, dokuzuncu sınıf öğrencilerinin benlik saygıları kontrol altına alındıktan sonra beden kitle indeksi ve yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Araştırmada benlik saygısı puanlarını belirlemek için Kendine Saygı Ölçeği, yaşam kalitesi algıları için Kiddo-Kindl-Ergen Formu kullanılmıştır. Çalışma grubunda bulunan öğrencilerin 327'si (%45.3) kız ve 395'i (%54.7) erkek, toplam 722 öğrenciden oluşmuştur ve yaş ortalaması 15.2'dir. Beden kitle indeksleri bakımından incelendiğinde öğrencilerin %16,8'inin düşük kilolu, % 70.9’ unun orta ve %12.3' ünün obez olduğu bulunmuştur. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgular incelendiğinde, öğrencilerin Beden Kitle İndeksi (BKİ) değerleri ile benlik saygısı ve yaşam kalitesi arasında ve benlik saygısı ile yaşam kalitesi arasında anlamlı ilişkiler olduğu görülmektedir. Ancak, araştırma kapsamında ergen bireylerin benlik saygısı değerleri dışta tutulduğunda, daha önce anlamlı düzeyde olumlu ilişki gösteren BKİ ve yaşam kalitesi puanları arasındaki ilişki neredeyse ortadan kalkmaktadır. Elde edilen bu bulguya göre ergen obez, ancak eğer benlik saygısı düşükse, yaşam kalitesinin de düşük olabileceğini göstermektedir. Araştırmada elde edilen bulgular var olan araştırma bulguları çerçevesinde tartışılmıştır.

Impact Scale

The present study was designed to examine psychosocial predictors of quality of life (QoL) such as body image, self-esteem, impact of Vitiligo (psychologically and socially), and perceived stigmatization in patients with Vitiligo. The sample (N =120) comprised of individuals with Vitiligo recruited from dermatology units of different hospitals in Lahore. Body Image State Scale (Cash, Fleming, Alindogan, Steadman, & Whitehead 2002), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (Rosenberg, 1965), Vitiligo Impact Scale (Rammam, Khaitan, Mehta, Sreenivas, & Gupta, 2014), Perceived Stigmatization Questionnaire (Lawrence, Fauerbach, Heinberg, & Thomas, 2006) and Dermatology Life Quality Index (Finlay & Khan, 1994) were used as assessment measures. Results revealed that most of the individuals with Vitiligo reported poorer perception of QoL; while, men with Vitiligo expressed better perceived QoL as compared to women. Individuals with both types of Vitiligo (lesions on exposed/unexposed regions) expressed poor body image, negative impact of Vitiligo on their psycho-social functioning, and higher levels of perceived stigmatization. Individuals with exposed Vitiligo affected regions exhibited lower self-esteem. In addition, body image, impact of Vitiligo (psychologically and socially), and perceived stigmatization (absence of friendly behavior) significantly predicted QoL. It was concluded that Vitiligo had a greater impact on individual’s psychological health and social functioning rather than physiological complications.

The Relationship

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the mediating effect of organizational embeddedness in the relationship between quality of work life (QWL) and turnover under a foundation of conservation of resources theory. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected from 422 healthcare professionals through a questionnaire survey, and analyzed by means of a confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. Findings The results indicate that organizational embeddedness has a negative impact on employees’ intention to leave, and on actual turnover. For QWL perception, career opportunities, work life balance, and job characteristics are positive and significant predictors of organizational embeddedness. In addition, organizational embeddedness plays an intermediary role that mediates the relationship between the three components of QWL mentioned earlier and turnover intention, and also between the factor of career opportunities and actual turnover. Research limitations/implications The current research took place within two healthcare organizations. Replicating the study in a variety of business sectors or professions with a larger sample of subjects would be useful for the generalizability of the findings. Practical implications Organizations may improve their retention of employees by offering intrinsic resources that can be obtained from the social contexts of the individual through human resource management system, e.g., growth opportunities, a healthy and caring work life quality. Such motivational resources then develop a sense of obligation toward their places of employment, which influences their intention to stay or leave. Originality/value This study examines the mediating role of organizational embeddedness between employees’ perception of their work life quality and their desire and behavior to withdraw, which is an area of inquiry that has not been fully investigated in the literature.

Over Time

The aim of this study is to investigate the longitudinal influence of self-esteem on romantic and coparental relationship quality. The data were drawn from the German Family Panel, pairfam. Parents ( n couples = 2,364) were assessed three times over 4 years. The results indicated that romantic and coparental quality decreased over time, while self-esteem remained stable. The self-esteem of both parents predicted initial romantic and coparental quality. Additionally, mothers’ self-esteem reduced the decline in romantic quality. Finally, romantic quality mediated the relationship between parents’ self-esteem and coparental quality. These results suggest that self-esteem might be a resource for the parental couple and even for the family unit, as romantic and coparental quality are key elements for the well-being of both parent and child.

The Relationship

ABSTRACTGiven global population ageing and the fact that Australia is experiencing a significant increase in the proportion of older adults in its population, research into ageing issues has become a national priority. Whilst body image and self-esteem have been empirically linked, the relationship among older adults has been neglected. This study investigated several body-image variables and their relationship to self-esteem in a sample of 148 men and women aged 65–85 years who were living independently in the Perth Metropolitan Area of Western Australia. They completed the ‘Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale’ and the ‘Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire’. The results indicated, contrary to a common misconception, that body-image concerns are significant to self-esteem in older adulthood, but that these vary by age and gender. Whilst women appear to develop various strategies to counter the effects of ageing, men seem to be more negatively affected, particularly in relation to body functioning. The findings shed light on the meaning of body image in older adulthood. A better understanding of the meaning of body image, of the factors that influence the meaning, and of how these relate to older adults' self-esteem may help older adults develop a positive body image that will contribute to psycho-social strengths and enhance their quality of life.
