Hubungan Antara Role Stressor Dan Komitmen Organisasional Dengan Turnover Intention

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji hubungan antara role stressor yang terdiri atas role ambiguity dan role conflict, serta komitmen organisasional dengan turnover, mengingat keterkaitan antara vaiabel-variabel tersebut masih menunjukkan inkonsistensi hasil-hasil penelitian. Beberapa penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kedua jenis role stressor tersebut merupakan prediktor yang signifikan bagi turnover, namun berbagai penelitian lainnya menunjukkan bahwa role stressor dan komitmen organisasional bukan merupakan prediktor yang signifikan. Penelitian ini menggunakan 61 responden dari satu perusahaan yang berlokasi di dua kota. Mengingat penelitian ini bersifat cross-section, maka turnover intention digunakan sebagai proksi dari turnover. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah analisis jalur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan role ambiguity dan role conflict merupakan prediktor yang signifikan bagi komitmen organisasional. Namun dari kedua jenis role stressor tersebut, hanya role conflict yang memiliki hubungan negatif dengan turnover intention. Terakhir, temuan menunjukkan bahwa komitmen organisasional merupakan prediktor penting bagi turnover intention. Bagian akhir paper ini menyajikan beberapa keterbatasan.

The Health Effects of Combining Work and Family Demands: An International Comparison of 31 Countries

This article aims to analyze the relationship between work-family conflict (wfc) and self-rated health in 31 countries. It argues that wfc, in line with the Sociological Stress Model (Pearlin 1987), is a major role stressor, associated with health problems of workers. The results show that wfc influences the level of self-rated health in the expected direction, when controlling for sociodemographic, family and working characteristics. Country differences exist regarding the moderating role of a country’s degree of individualism. In countries which show higher degrees of individualism, the negative health effects of wfc are stronger. The analysis uses data from the ISSP in 2012 (N=29.857) and multilevel regression models are calculated in order to analyze country differences.

Impact of Workplace Factors on Role-Related Stressors and Job Stress Among Community Corrections Staff

Community corrections staff are responsible for supervising more than 4 million offenders nationwide; yet, little research exists on understanding their experiences with role-related stressors and job stress. The purpose of this study was to extend the existing community corrections literature by examining the impact of job characteristics, danger-related factors, and role preference on role-related stressors (i.e., role conflict, role ambiguity, and role overload) and job stress, with a focus on determining whether the relationships varied across specific job positions (i.e., probation/parole vs. residential). Results indicated that each type of role-related stressor was differentially affected by job characteristics, danger-related factors, and role preference, and that these relationships also differed by position. Threat of harm was a significant predictor of each type of role-related stressor for probation/parole officers, but only had a significant effect on role overload for residential officers. Furthermore, safety training had significant effects on role ambiguity and role overload for residential officers, but was not a significant predictor of any role stressor for probation/parole officers. Role preference was significant for both positions, but only for the role overload variable. Most surprisingly, the only variable to predict job stress was role overload.
