성인의 내면화된 수치심과 대인관계문제의 관계:정서인식명확성과 자기자비의 매개효과

Objectives This study aimed to investigate the mediating effects of emotional clarity and self-compassion in the relationship between internalized shame and interpersonal problems among adults aged 18 and older. Methods An online survey was conducted to measure internalized shame, interpersonal problems, emotional clarity, and self-compassion among adults aged 18 and older. A total of 443 participants (122 males and 321 females) were included in the analysis, which was performed using SPSS 29.0 and AMOS 26.0 statistical software. Results First, internalized shame, interpersonal problems, emotional clarity, and self-compassion were all found to be significantly correlated. Second, emotional clarity mediated the relationship between internalized shame and interpersonal problems. However, self-compassion did not show a significant mediating effect in this relationship. Third, a dual mediation effect of both self-compassion and emotional clarity was observed in the relationship between internalized shame and interpersonal problems. Conclusions The findings suggest that when adult clients report interpersonal problems, it is crucial to consider internalized shame and focus interventions on emotional clarity and self-compassion. Finally, the implications and limitations of this study are discussed.

Instrumentation of students’ experience through the active content of science: from epistemic contact to idealizations and back again in school classrooms

ABSTRACT The paper presents an in-depth exploration of the process of the instrumentation of experience within the context of teaching and learning in schools. We focus on the role of cultural instruments, such as scientific tools and practices, in mediating human cognition and transforming students´ experience into active scientific content. The study draws on the concepts of dual mediation and the interplay between denotative and expressive aspects of cognition. We aim to (1) characterise the process of instrumentalizing students’ experience into active scientific content within the classroom and (2) propose a theoretically consistent model of instrumentation of experience for micro-level analysis of teaching and learning based on the construct of content transformation. We propose a micro-level model for analyzing the instrumentation of experience in educational settings, highlighting the interaction between the subjective, intersubjective, and objective content modalities, Kvasz's typology of cultural genesis in science and its operationalisation through five epistemic categories (e.g. cognitive penetrability of imagination). The operational grounding of these categories is illustrated through case study examples. This model serves for micro-analysis of content transformations during teaching and learning and thus to contribute to the enhancement of teaching and learning quality through classroom observations and analytical reflection.

The impact of green low-carbon development on public health: a quasi-natural experimental study of low-carbon pilot cities in China.

In recent years, climate change and environmental pollution have posed significant threats to public health. As environmental policies such as low-carbon city initiatives are progressively implemented, their role in enhancing public health has become a topic of growing interest. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between green low-carbon development and public health and to analyze the underlying mechanisms. We utilized data from 271 prefecture-level cities in China spanning from 2007 to 2020, focusing on green low-carbon development, climate change, environmental pollution, and public health. Employing the quasi-natural experimental framework of China's low-carbon city pilot projects, we constructed a multi-site difference-in-differences (DID) model for empirical analysis. Various robustness checks, including parallel trend tests, placebo tests, sample selection bias checks, and adjustments to the temporal and spatial scope of the samples, were conducted to ensure the reliability of the results. Additionally, we explored the positive effects of green low-carbon development on public health through dual mediation pathways involving climate change mitigation and pollution reduction. Finally, we examined the heterogeneity of the results across different city tiers, economic growth rates, levels of technological investment, and green finance development. The findings indicate that green low-carbon development significantly enhances public health, a conclusion supported by robustness tests. Mechanism analysis reveals that the benefits of green low-carbon development on public health are realized through mitigating climate change and reducing environmental pollution. Further analysis reveals that the positive impact on public health is more pronounced in first-and second-tier cities, as well as in cities with faster economic growth, greater technological investment, and more developed green finance sectors. This study highlights the crucial role of urban green low-carbon development in improving environmental quality and public health. In addition to providing empirical evidence that supports the promotion of green low-carbon development in cities, the results point to policy recommendations for enhancing public health. Moreover, the findings contribute to the development of environmental policies and the implementation of the "Healthy China" strategy.

How Creativity Influenced by the Network Efficiency of a Student’s Ego Network Affect Academic Performance Through Academic Coping Strategies?

The purpose of this study is to investigate the dual mediation role of creativity and academic coping in network efficiency and academic performance, using Folkman and Lazarus’s transactional model of stress. Data were obtained from 39 students taking business administration at a Korean university. Social network analysis was performed to check the ego network of students. The double mediation model was applied to analyze the path from network efficiency to academic performance. The results showed that network efficiency, in relation to the structural hole in social network parameters, was double mediated by creativity and academic coping, which had a positive effect on academic performance. However, the effect of double mediation through avoidance was insignificant. Based on the research results, the theoretical and practical implications for the dual mediation effect of creativity and academic coping were presented.

컨설팅전문기업 경영컨설턴트의 직무자율성, 직무재창조, 개인-직무적합성 및 조직몰입의 구조적 관계

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural relationship between job autonomy, job crafting, person-job fit, and organizational commitment of management consultants of consulting companies. The instrument consisted of measurement tools used in previous studies and modified to fit the job context of management consultants. The responses of 352 management consultants in consulting companies were utilized in the analysis. Reliability analysis, descriptive statistics analysis, correlation analysis, and multicollinearity analysis were conducted using SPSS 29.0 for Windows. Additionally, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling were performed using the lavaan package in R. The results of the study are as follows. First, a structural relationship model was derived for predicting the causal relationship between job autonomy, job crafting, person-job fit, and organizational commitment of management consultants in consulting companies. Second, the person-job fit of management consultants was shown to have a direct and positive effect on organizational commitment. Job autonomy and job crafting did not significantly affect organizational commitment. Third, the job autonomy of management consultants was found to have a statistically significant effect on organizational commitment through job crafting and person-job fit. Job autonomy has a significant positive effect on organizational commitment with person-job fit as a single mediation and a significant positive effect on organizational commitment with job crafting and person-job fit as dual mediation. Based on these results, suggestions for enhancing the level of organizational commitment of management consultants and implications for follow-up research were presented.

The Psychological Mechanism of Moral Leadership Influencing Responsible Subordinate Behavior

As China’s anti-corruption campaign intensifies, several of those involved in various capacities in the public sector are demonstrating slackness, a lack of moral awareness, and a weakened sense of responsibility. This study analyzes the multiple mechanisms influencing the responsible behavior of public sector personnel by combining certain key factors, such as managers’ moral leadership style, psychological security, and the notion of interactive justice. Based on social information processing theory and social exchange theory, this study constructs a dual mediation model (psychological security and interactive justice) to explore the mediating psychological mechanism of moral leadership influencing employees’ responsible behavior. The results of a two-stage paired survey and structural equation modeling analysis of civil servants from 48 departments and eight units in Shandong and Henan provinces show that moral leadership positively impacts responsible behavior. Moreover, psychological security and interactive justice play a mediating role between them. Furthermore, this study elaborates upon the mechanism of moral leadership affecting the responsible behavior of employees, which is of great value for improving the efficiency of government management and guiding civil servants to behave more responsibly.

Staying connected beyond the clock: a talent management perspective of after-hours work connectivity and proactive behaviours in the digital age

PurposeWorking arrangements’ hybridity has become paramount, particularly after the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. A remote working environment has indubitable advantages (e.g. the ability to work from anywhere and at any time). However, such flexibility comes at the cost of being virtually always connected. This duality poses challenges for talent management (TM) in determining who can thrive under these specific conditions and how. This study explores how employees respond to this extended connectivity – namely, work connectivity behaviour after-hours (WCBA) – and its influence on proactive talent behaviour by constructing and testing a theoretical model that differentiates employees’ reactions to this condition.Design/methodology/approachThis study collected data from 400 mainland Chinese employees using online and offline methods. Owing to the potentially varied effects of working in digital environments on employees, a dual mediation regression model was employed to test the hypotheses.FindingsRemote and hybrid work and, specifically, the increased connectivity experienced by employees can be a “double-edged sword” in influencing their proactive behaviour (PB). While employees experience increased organisation-based self-esteem, which positively correlates with more intense PB, this prolonged exposure may also cause emotional exhaustion (EE), which has a negative correlation with PB. Jointly considering both mediation effects revealed that WCBA’s total effect on PB remained negative.Originality/valueThis study enriches the debate regarding the development of TM practices specifically designed for remote work. It recommends paying greater attention to how employees react to increased connectivity experienced in remote and hybrid working environments. Increased self-esteem or passive EE are possible elements for identifying employees’ talent potential. The separation between work and after-work is becoming blurred in the digital age, which reduces employees’ motivation and ability to exploit their inner talents. Therefore, organisations must find alternatives to preserve their talent pools. This study enriches theoretical research on WCBA, promoting an in-depth application of the theory of job-demand resources in the digital age.

A Knitted and MXenzyme-Integrated Dressing for Geriatrics Diagnosis and Ulcer Healing.

Integrated diagnostic and therapeutic dressings are desirable to relieve diabetic patients who often suffer from diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) and peripheral vascular diseases (PVDs). However, it is highly difficult to monitor the pulse waves with fidelity under wet environments and connect the waveforms to diseases through a small strain sensor. Additionally, immobilizing MXenzyme to regulate spatially heterogeneous levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and applying active intervention to enhance ulcer healing on a single structure remain a complex task. To address these issues, we designed a multiscale wearable dressing comprising a knitted all-textile sensing array for quantitatively investigating the pulse wave toward PVD diagnosis. MXenzyme was loaded onto the dressing to provide multiple enzyme mimics for anti-inflammatory activities and deliver electrical stimulation to promote wound growth. In mice, we demonstrate that high and uniform expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is observed only in the group undergoing dual mediation with electrical stimulation and MXenzyme. This observation indicates that the engineered wound dressing has the capability to accelerate healing in DFU. In human patient evaluations, the engineered dressing distinguishes vascular compliance and pulse period, enabling the diagnosis of arteriosclerosis and return blockage, two typical PVDs. The designed and engineered multiscale dressing achieves the purpose of integrating diagnostic peripheral vessel health monitoring and ulcer healing therapeutics for satisfying the practical clinical requirements of geriatric patients.

How Islamic work ethics predict work engagement: a double mediation model

PurposePositive work attributes and moral behaviors are vital for creative organizations, their people and sustainable work systems. The twofold purpose of this study is first, to describe the concept and importance of work ethics in the light of Quranic verses, and second, to examine the link that explains how Islamic work ethics (IWE) predicts work engagement in an individual. A dual mediation path is identified and tested.Design/methodology/approachData were collected using a cross-sectional design, and a sample of 373 health-care employees provided empirical evidence for the conceptualized model.FindingsResults showed full mediation for both mediators, meaning individuals demonstrating higher IWE have strong cognitive and emotional resources that help them to immerse in work constructively. Data was analyzed using SPSS V.16. Implications and future directions are further discussed.Originality/valueThis paper contributes to the scant area of identifying IWE consequences in contemporary organizations and extends the understanding of work engagement by linking it with an affective resource as a potential mediator in the mechanism.

Servant Leadership and Work–Family Conflict: The Dual Mediation Effects of Thriving at Work and Workaholism

ABSTRACTExtant research has uniformly demonstrated that servant leadership is beneficial for followers, teams, and even organizations. Drawing upon social information processing theory and social exchange theory, we challenge this prevalent conclusion by analyzing the dual impact mechanism of servant leadership on followers' work–family conflict. A total of 402 Chinese working adults responded to a three‐wave online questionnaire survey. The results revealed that: on the one hand, servant leadership can enhance thriving at work and reduce the work–family conflict of subordinates; on the other hand, servant leadership can also trigger workaholism in subordinates, which can increase work–family conflict. Traditionality of followers moderates the dual mechanism of servant leadership on work–family conflict. This study reveals the benefits and perils of servant leadership and the important role that traditionality plays in this unique leadership process.

중학생이 지각하는 부모의 양육 태도가 자살 위험성에 미치는 영향

The purpose of this study is to verify the dual mediating effects of social support and satisfaction with appearance regarding the influence of middle school students’ perceived parental parenting attitude on the risk of suicide. The subjects of the study were 1,945 middle school students who participated in the 2021 survey on the mental health of teenagers conducted by the Korea Youth Policy Institute (National Youth Policy Institute: NYPI), and correlation analysis between related variables and dual mediation effects were verified using spss 27.0 and the Macro Process (model 6) of Hayes (2013) did. As a result of the analysis, it was found that social support and satisfaction with appearance had a significant dual mediating effect in the influence of middle school students’s perceived parental parenting attitude on suicide risk. These results suggest the importance of social support and appearance satisfaction in middle school students’ suicide risk and the possibility of intervention through activation and counseling of school social welfare.

Why Does Sense of Power Alleviate Emotional Exhaustion?

Abstract: Emotional exhaustion is known to negatively impact employees’ physical and mental health. Although personal psychological resources have been considered as critical alleviating factors, little is known about the relation between sense of power and emotional exhaustion as well as the underlying mechanisms. Building on conservation of resources theory and the psychology of power framework, this research aims to examine a dual mediation model to fill this gap. A three-wave survey was implemented to collect data among 227 employees in China. Mediation analysis was conducted to examine our hypotheses. The results showed that sense of power was negatively related to emotional exhaustion; both psychological safety and organizational embeddedness mediated this relationship. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

Objectives This study was conducted to draw implications that can be used to establish a systematic intervention plan to help the smooth career development of general high school students in Korea. Methods To this purpose, This study used data from the fifth year of the KCYPS 2018 to test how high school students' perceived parental positive nurturing attitude affect their career adaptability through mediating self-esteem and academic engagement by setting up a SEM. Results First, the paths through which parental positive nurturing attitude influenced high school students' self-esteem, academic engagement, and career adaptability, the paths through which self-esteem influenced academic engagement and career adaptability, and the respective paths through which academic engagement influenced career adaptability were all significant and static. Second, there were partial mediation effects of self-esteem and academic engagement on the relationship between high school students' perceived parental positive attitude and career adaptability, and a dual mediation effect in which parental positive nurturing attitude sequentially mediated self-esteem and academic engagement to affect career adaptability. Conclusions The operational and content factors to be considered when conducting career counseling and education in general high schools were suggested.

중년 여성의 사회부과적 완벽주의가 만성 통증에 미치는 영향

Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the dual mediating effects of ambivalence over emotional expression and depression in the impact of socially prescribed perfectionism on chronic pain in middle-aged women. Methods The results were distributed for 291 women aged between 40 and 59 years who reported pain for more than 3 months, on scales of socially prescribed perfectionism, chronic pain, ambivalence over emotional expression, and depression. Descriptive statics, Pearson’s correlation analysis and dual mediation analysis analyzed data via SPSS 25.0, Process Macro 6 model. Results Firstly, socially prescribed perfectionism, chronic pain, ambivalence over emotional expression, and depression showed positive correlations among middle-aged women. Secondly, in the relationship between socially prescribed perfectionism and chronic pain in middle-aged women, ambivalence over emotional expression and depression sequentially showed a dual mediating effect. This means that as the level of socially prescribed perfectionism increases, leading to a higher degree of chronic pain, the clearer the emotional expression and the lower the depression, the lesser the degree of chronic pain experienced. Conclusions This study is significant for revealing the dual mediating effects of ambivalence over emotional expression and depression in the impact of socially prescribed perfectionism on chronic pain among middle-aged women. By elucidating this relationship, it provides factors for counseling and psychological interventions in situations where middle-aged women experience chronic pain due to socially prescribed perfectionism. Based on the results of the study, implications and suggestions have been presented.
