Given the seriousness of the COVID-19 crisis that impacted organizations all over the world, study on the operational variables impacting the psychological well-being of the workers of an organization affected by the crisis has been insufficient. Therefore, the present study aimed to highlight the role of active transactional leadership of employees’ emotional exhaustion through their perceived uncertainties. For this purpose, a cross-sectional study has been carried out among 309 employees working in Thai educational sector and the data was collected through self-administered questionnaires. The collected data was then analyzed by adopting PLS-SEM approach using SmartPLS 3.0 software. The findings of the study confirmed the direct relationships of active transactional leadership with perceived uncertainties. Also, the study established the direct association of perceived uncertainties with employee emotional exhaustion. The findings further confirmed the mediation of perceived uncertainties between the relationship of active transactional leadership and employee emotional exhaustion.

Jamaican police officers often encounter organizational and societal stressors through their work in high-crime and low-resource settings. Repeated exposure to stressors, with limited opportunities for support, can compromise emotional well-being and increase the risk of experiencing burnout and suicidal ideation. This cross-sectional study examines the relationship between burnout (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal accomplishment) and suicidal ideations among Jamaican police officers surveyed in 2017. Jamaican police officers ( N = 305) from five major urban divisions completed two self-report questionnaires. The results revealed significant relationships between emotional exhaustion and suicidal ideations ( r = .17, p < .01) and depersonalization and suicidal ideations ( r = .18, p < .01). However, there was no significant relationship between personal accomplishment and suicidal ideations ( p > .01). Implementing programmes that offer access to adaptive coping or stress management skills and social support systems may reduce burnout and decrease risk for suicidal ideation.

We examined the associations of different types of prayer with subjective well-being—with a religious support as a potential moderator—in a sample of Korean adults. In a cross-sectional study, 468 participants completed measures of five prayer types (adoration, confession, thanksgiving, supplication, and reception prayer), subjective well-being, and religious support. After controlling for background variables, the thanksgiving prayers had positive associations and supplication prayers had negative associations with subjective well-being. In examining the potential moderating role of religious support, the current findings showed that religious support strengthened the relationship between reception prayer and subjective well-being, especially among individuals who perceived moderate and high levels of religious support. These findings indicate differential associations between prayer type and well-being in Korean adults.

Colostrum represents the first fluid that secreted by the breast gland, containing tissue debris and residual material in the alveoli and ducts of the breast glands pre- and post-puerperium. It is also viscous liquid with yellowish color and more yellow than mature milk (Wulandari & Handayani, 2011). This research aimed to determine the relationship of mother knowledge, family support and health officers by giving colostrum at RSKDIA Pertiwi Makassar. The methods of research by using anaytical design with cross sectional study apparoach, the sample of research is post-partum mother as many as 122 mothers. The result of research indicates that there is significant correlation between mother’s knowledge with the giving of colostrum for newborn with p-value = 0.014 < α = 0.05, there is no significant correlation between family support and the giving of colostrum with p-value = 0.79 > α = 0.05 and there is no correlation between health officer support with the giving of colostrum with p-value = 0.283 > α = 0.05. It can be concluded that there is a relationship between mother’s knowledge with the giving of colostrum and there is no relationship between family support, and health officer support with the giving of colostrum. It is expected that mothers can increase their knowledge about colostrum delivery for newborn by following counseling of health officer as well as increasing the role of health officer by giving health program especially in improving the understanding of communities about the importance of colostrum.

Previous research links religiosity/spirituality with a wide variety of organizational functions and practices, and, in particular, with management processes and leadership practices. Building on Huber’s concept of the centrality of religiosity, we propose that religiosity can also affect career choice and development—in particular, work orientation styles and work engagement. We also suggest that these relationships can be moderated by gender. The hypotheses were tested on a sample of 219 adult employees (Mage = 37.7, SDage = 9.2) in a cross-sectional study. Findings provide support the religiosity–career orientation style link and the moderating function of gender in the relationship of the centrality of religiosity with work orientation styles and work engagement. Specifically, the higher the centrality of religiosity, the stronger the calling orientation among women and the higher the job orientation among men. The higher the centrality of religiosity, the stronger the vigor, dedication and absorption among women and the lower the vigor, dedication and absorption among men. Our study supports the claim that being religious is related to the acceptance of traditional worldviews on gender roles at work. However, religiosity is a source of motivation to engage at work for women, whereas for men, high religiosity can reduce engagement in work.

Maternal pattern and the role of peers in high school youth dating behavior in JambiPurposeThe purpose of this paper was to determine the relationship between parental parenting and the role of peers with youth dating behavior in Jambi. MethodA cross-sectional study was conducted involving 281 students of SMAN 4 and SMAN 11 in Jambi who were or have been dating. Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate with chi square tests, and multivariate with logistic regression tests.Results281 respondents, 113 (72.44%) of the majority of male adolescents behaved in risky courtship. Bivariable analysis found that there was a significant correlation between the role of peers and teenage dating behavior, while the relationship of mother pattern with teenage dating behavior was found to be insignificant. Multivariable analysis, obtained the result that the role of peers is the dominant variable associated with youth dating behavior with OR 2.74 times (95%, CI = 1.61-4.67). ConclusionThis study contributes to the knowledge that a poor peer role for adolescents has a risk to behave in risky dating and mother's parenting does not have a meaningful relationship with youth courtship behavior.

Abstract. Both individual and dyadic coping behaviors are important for adaptation to a severe illness. However, there is a theoretical controversy regarding the interplay between these two forms of coping. In this cross-sectional study, we examined (a) whether recently diagnosed cancer patients engage mostly with one form of coping or whether they use both in parallel; (b) the relationship of individual and supportive dyadic/common coping to emotional well-being and relationship satisfaction. Participants were 92 women recently diagnosed with cancer (mostly breast cancer) and receiving medical treatment ( Mage = 49.37 years; SD = 10.52). All had been living with their partner for at least 2 years. The parallel use of individual and supportive dyadic/common coping behaviors was frequently reported. Individual and dyadic/common coping proved to be related to each other ( p < .01), and both were related to emotional well-being and relationship satisfaction ( p < .05). The combination of high individual and high supportive dyadic/common coping was associated with greater satisfaction with the relationship ( p < .01). Patients probably use individual and dyadic coping behaviors in concert to better deal with the different aspects of their illness experience. Both types of coping should be considered in the context of personalized intervention programs to facilitate adaptation to cancer.

The purpose of this study was to test the mediating effects of coping on relationships of psychological distress and stress with anxiety, depression, and quality of life. A cross-sectional and correlational research study was used to recruit a sample of 440 patients with advanced cancer in Indonesia. A bootstrap resampling procedure was used to test the significance of the total and specific indirect effects of coping. Data analysis showed that problem-focused coping (PFC) mediated relationships of psychological distress and stress on depression, anxiety and functional well-being. PFC also mediated the relationship between stress and social well-being. Emotional-focused coping (EFC) mediated the relationship of stress with physical and emotional well-being. EFC also mediated the relationships between psychological distress and physical well-being. Thus, proper assessments and interventions should be tailored and implemented for patients in order to facilitate their use of coping strategies when needed in stressful situations.

The Impact

Abstract Purpose The purpose of the present cross-sectional study is to investigate the role of perceived COVID-19-related organizational demands and threats in predicting emotional exhaustion, and the role of organizational support in reducing the negative influence of perceived COVID-19 work-related stressors on burnout. Moreover, the present study aims to add to the understanding of the role of personal resources in the Job Demands-Resources model (JD-R) by examining whether personal resources—such as the professionals’ orientation towards patient engagement—may also strengthen the impact of job resources and mitigate the impact of job demands. Methods This cross-sectional study involved 532 healthcare professionals working during the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy. It adopted the Job-Demands-Resource Model to study the determinants of professional’s burnout. An integrative model describing how increasing job demands experienced by this specific population are related to burnout and in particular to emotional exhaustion symptoms was developed. Results The results of the logistic regression models provided strong support for the proposed model, as both Job Demands and Resources are significant predictors (OR = 2.359 and 0.563 respectively, with p < 0.001). Moreover, healthcare professionals’ orientation towards patient engagement appears as a significant moderator of this relationship, as it reduces Demands’ effect (OR = 1.188) and increases Resources’ effect (OR = 0.501). Conclusions These findings integrate previous findings on the JD-R Model and suggest the relevance of personal resources and of relational factors in affecting professionals’ experience of burnout.
