Impact of Teachers' Post-Traumatic Stress Due to Violence Victimization: Moderated Mediation Effect of Living a Calling.

Based on the Affective Events Theory, Work as a Calling Theory, and related studies, this research examined the moderated mediating effects of Living a Calling and the mediating effect of social interaction anxiety and psychological burnout on the relationships between post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms consequent to violence victimization, self-destructive behaviors, and turnover intention. Data from 420 Korean elementary and secondary school teachers were analyzed using the moderated mediation model. The analysis revealed that post-traumatic stress disorder caused by violence victimization positively affected self-destructive behavior and turnover intention through the sequential mediation of social interaction anxiety and psychological burnout. Further, Living a Calling moderated the indirect effect of violence victimization; the stronger the Living-a-Calling experience, the greater the indirect effect of violence victimization on turnover intention. Additionally, when the sense of Living a Calling was low, post-traumatic stress disorder caused by violence did not significantly affect turnover intention through social interaction anxiety, but contrary to expectations, the stronger the sense of Living a Calling, the more positive the mediating effect of social interaction anxiety. Therapeutic interventions in teachers' work environment, improvements, and suggestions for future research are discussed.

초심상담자의 신경증과 심리적 소진 간 관계

This study was conducted to the dual mediating effect of job stress and job engagement in the relationship between neuroticism and psychological burnout of novice counselors. For this purpose, the results of applying structural equation model based on data collected from a total of 267 novice counselors are as follows. First, it was found that neuroticism had a significant effect on job stress, psychological burnout, and job engagement. In addition, it was found that job stress had a significant effect on job engagement and psychological burnout, and job engagement had a significant effect on psychological burnout. Second, as a result of confirming the mediating effect, the single mediating effect of job stress and job engagement and the sequential mediating effect of job stress and job engagement were found to be significant in the relationship between neuroticism and psychological burnout. The significance of this study is that it suggests ways to cope with stress or improve job engagement as an intervention plan for novice counselors experiencing psychological burnout.

The Effect of School Violence Teachers' Work Stress on Psychological Burnout

The Effect of School Violence Teachers' Work Stress on Psychological Burnout

Tears and cheers: A narrative inquiry of a doctoral student's resilience in study abroad.

The existing literature has revealed many issues related to Ph.D. students' wellbeing, such as anxiety and stress, which are likely to cause Ph.D. student attrition or dropout. As one of the key coping strategies against psychological burnout, resilience has received increasing attention among various teacher groups. However, it still lacks a systematic understanding of students, in particular overseas Ph.D. students. This article explores doctoral students' resilience through a narrative inquiry into the resilience-building process of a Ph.D. student in language and linguistics, Hongxia, in the United Kingdom. Drawing on the research methods and results of resilience from teachers, this study examines Hongxia's lived experience as a Ph.D. student throughout her 3 years of learning and research and uncovers the dynamic and multifaceted process of resilience building as the interplay between Ph.D. students' agency, peers, supervisors, academics, families, and friends. The current research supports the value of narrative inquiry, in particular critical story analysis, as a tool for studying the resilience-building processes in Ph.D. students during their candidature. It also hopes to provide insight for administrators, supervisors, and other related stakeholders on their intervention to support and facilitate the research journey of doctoral students.

Factors Affecting Psychological Burnout in Nurses Caring for Terminal Cancer Patients.

This study aimed to investigate the impacts of end-of-life care competency and ethical dilemmas on psychological burnout in nurses who care for terminal cancer patients. A cross-sectional study of 160 nurses who cared for terminal cancer patients was conducted. The participants were recruited from the hospice-palliative care wards, hematology or oncology wards, or intensive care units of three general hospitals in a single metropolitan area. Data were collected using a self-administered survey to assess end-of-life care competency, ethical dilemmas, psychological burnout, and general sociodemographic characteristics. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the independent t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchical linear regression analysis using SPSS for Windows (version 26.0). Psychological burnout was significantly correlated with end-of-life care competency (r=-0.23, P=0.003) but not with ethical dilemmas. The results of the hierarchical linear regression analysis indicated that end-of-life care competency (β=-0.280, P=0.010) and ethical dilemmas (β=0.275, P=0.037) were significant predictors of psychological burnout, after adjusting for age, religious status, clinical experience, and unit type. The current study's findings demonstrate that end-of-life care competency and ethical dilemmas are crucial factors that affect psychological burnout in nurses who care for terminal cancer patients. Substantive education programs must be developed to improve nurses' competencies in end-of-life care and ethical dilemmas to decrease psychological burnout.

Understanding parents’ motives for, and beliefs about, enrolling three-to-five-year-old children into organised sporting programs

ABSTRACT In contemporary society, parents enrol children into organised sport from as young as three years of age. Although the benefits of sport participation are well documented, it is important to acknowledge early sport involvement can also prompt an increase injury risk, psychological burnout and/or sport dropout. Yet little is known about why parents enrol preschool aged children into organised sport, especially from a sociological perspective. Using a social constructionist theoretical framework, this study sought to explore parent motives for, and beliefs about, enrolling young children (aged three-to-five years) into organised sporting programs. The objectives of this study were to [1] understand the socially constructed motives, beliefs and attitudes that lead parents to encourage children into organised sport programs; [2] explore parents’ perceived benefits and challenges of engaging children into organised sport; and [3] identify broader social and cultural forces that influence parental decision-making surrounding young children’s contemporary sport participation. Individual, semi-structured interviews with 16 parents of children aged three-to-five years were transcribed verbatim and analysed using a reflexive thematic analysis. Three main themes developed from the analysis including the notions of urgency, futureproofing, and the sporting family. The results suggest that parental decision-making can be influenced by broader sociocultural, contextual, historical, and political forces which are perceived to construct, maintain, and perpetuate powerful ideologies that encourage children’s early sport involvement. From a social constructionist theoretical perspective, the findings highlight how social and health-related discourses, government programs, and past experiences emerge as dynamic yet highly influential forms of disciplinary power relating to parental decision-making. Recommendations for policymakers, researchers and parents are discussed.

Working-class postgraduates’ perceptions of studying while working at a selected university

Orientation: The life of working-class postgraduates can be exhilarating and daunting, juggling the commitments of full-time employment and postgraduate studies. Insofar as can be established, little, if any, research has been conducted on exploring the experiences of such students in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. An in-depth investigation is necessary to assist management and academic institutions to support such students.Research purpose: The purpose of the study was to understand the selected working-class postgraduate students’ perceptions of studying while working simultaneously, as well as explore the experiences, challenges and coping mechanisms of the cohort of students.Motivation for the study: The severe financial challenges, psychological burnout and other obstacles that working-class postgraduates face, which often impair their ability to perform optimally in both their career and studies, motivated the research. Therefore, recommendations can be made to management and institutions of higher learning to assist such students.Research approach/design and methods: The study was positioned in the qualitative research paradigm and used explorative single case study research design and semi-structured interview approach to collect data from the research participants. Four-stage content analysis method was used to analyse the interview transcripts, because the focus was on understanding the content and contextual meaning derived from the transcribed texts. Seven themes were identified, namely, development and growth, applicability of knowledge across school and work, time management and planning, drive and ambition, struggles and sacrifices, support systems/services and work–study balance.Main findings: The results indicate that time management skills and planning, drive and ambition, work–study balance and support from employers and family are significant coping factors that promote working-class postgraduates’ success in their careers and studies.Practical/managerial implications: Given the positive role that time management skills and support play in ensuring professional and academic success, the researchers advocate for professional and institutional interventions. Such interventions could be in the education, training and development domain that can ameliorate the effects of conflicting demands of work and postgraduate studies.Contribution/value-add: Initiating the conceptualisation of a coping mechanism model that combines effective management with high motivation and goal setting can stimulate additional empirical-related research towards validating the conceptual model.

Server connection versus marital disconnection: An investigation of the effect of internet addiction on couple burnout in Iran

The internet has become ubiquitous in many people's lives to an extent that necessitates the investigation of its impact on marital relationships. There has been a lack of such studies in the Iranian context and the present study investigated the relationship between internet addiction and couple burnout. A total of 377 married individuals participated in an online survey comprising demographic information, the Internet Addiction Test (IAT), and the Couple Burnout Measure (CBM). Partial least squares –structure equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to assess the relationships in the proposed research model. Structural equation modelling showed a significant effect of sub-components of internet addiction (lack of control; social withdrawal and emotional conflict; time management problems; and concealing problematic behavior) on emotional burnout. In addition, lack of control and time management problems showed significant and positive effect on somatic burnout. However, the relationships between internet addiction components and psychological burnout were not demonstrated as hypothesized. Given the explained relationships between factors comprising internet addiction and couple burnout, couple therapists need to be made more aware of the risks of internet overuse upon marital relationships and to encourage couples to optimize the internet use to prevent negative outcomes (in particular emotional burnout) among couples.

초등교사의 심리적 소진이 주관적 행복감에 미치는 영향

Objectives The purposes of this study were to examine the mediating effect of alternative and control, which are sub-factors of cognitive flexibility, in the effect of elementary school teachers' psychological burnout on subjective happiness. Methods To this end, a survey was conducted with 855 elementary school teachers located in Daegu and Gyeongbuk. In addition, in order to verify whether the effect of psychological burnout on subjective happiness by mediating cognitive flexibility is significant, alternative and control, sub-factors of cognitive flexibility, were assumed as tentative mediators. After that, the statistical significance of the mediating effect was verified by applying the SPSS Process Macro No. 4 model. Results The main findings of this study are as follows: First, the cognitive flexibility of elementary school teachers showed negative correlation with psychological burnout in the relationship between psychological burnout and subjective happiness, and positive correlation with subjective happiness. Second, alternative and control factors, which are sub-factors of cognitive flexibility, were found to mediate in the relationship between psychological burnout and subjective happiness, respectively, and the double mediating effect was also confirmed to be significant. Conclusions In the case of elementary school teachers experiencing psychological burnout, it is shown that cognitive flexibility plays a positive role in maintaining subjective well-being. In addition, it was confirmed that it is important to lower psychological burnout and increase cognitive flexibility in order to improve the subjective happiness of elementary school teachers. In addition, based on the study results, it suggested the need for research to reduce psychological burnout and improve cognitive flexibility for elementary school teachers.

Hemşirelerde Tükenmişlik ve Dinî Başa Çıkma İlişkisinde Psikolojik Dayanıklılığın Aracı Rolü

Hemşirelerde Tükenmişlik ve Dinî Başa Çıkma İlişkisinde Psikolojik Dayanıklılığın Aracı Rolü Öz Hemşireler, hastalarla ve ekip arkadaşlarıyla sürekli etkileşim hâlinde olan sağlık çalışanlarıdır. Bu durum onların tükenmişlik riskini artırmaktadır. Salgın süreciyle beraber, bu risk daha da artmıştır. Çünkü bulaşıcılık, ölüm tehdidi, artan iş yükü, sürecin belirsizliği, hastayla uzun süreler bir arada olma ve aileden ayrı kalma gibi hususlar onlar için stres düzeyini artırmaktadır. Hemşireler, tüm bu stres faktörleriyle mücadele ederken başa çıkmalarını destekleyecek hususlardan da beslenmektedir. Bu bağlamda, psikolojik dayanıklılıklarını besleyen ya da zayıflatan bir faktör olarak dinî başa çıkma eğilimlerini incelemek önem kazanmaktadır. Oysa, gerçekleştirilen çalışmalar incelendiğinde hemşirelerde tükenmişlik ve psikolojik dayanıklılık bağlamında olumlu ve olumsuz dinî başa çıkma tutumlarıyla ilişkili herhangi bir araştırmaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu araştırmada, tükenmişliğin yüksek görüldüğü çalışan gruplarından biri olan hemşirelerde tükenmişlik, psikolojik dayanıklılık ve olumlu/olumsuz dinî başa çıkma düzeyleri arasındaki etkileşimin tespiti amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca olumlu/olumsuz dinî başa çıkma ile tükenmişlik sendromu ilişkisinde psikolojik dayanıklılığın ara bulucu rolünü irdelemek de araştırmanın amaçları arasında yer almaktadır. Bunlara ek olarak, bireylerin medeni durum ve yaş gruplarının bu değişkenler üzerinde herhangi bir farklılığa yol açıp açmadığı da ele alınmıştır. Araştırma, ilişkisel tarama modeline dayalı oluşturulmuştur. Çalışmaya, sağlık tesislerinde görev yapan 250 hemşire katılmıştır. Katılımcılara Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Maslach Tükenmişlik Ölçeği, Kısa Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği ve Dinî Başa Çıkma Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Kartopu örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılan katılımcıların veri analizleri IBM SPSS Statistics 26 ve Smart PLS Version 3.3.2 paket yazılımında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Hemşirelerde, evliliğin olumlu dinî başa çıkma üzerinde olumlu bir etkisinin olduğu görülmektedir. Buna göre evli olan hemşirelerin bekarlara göre olumlu dinî başa çıkma eğiliminin daha yüksek olduğu söylenebilir. Bu bulgular, H1 hipotezinin “Evli hemşireler bekârlara nazaran olumlu dinî başa çıkmayı daha çok kullanmaktadırlar” şeklindeki ilk kısmını doğrulamaktadır. Diğer yandan medeni durumun olumsuz dinî başa çıkma, psikolojik sağlamlık ve tükenmişlik sendromu üzerinde anlamlılık derecesinde herhangi bir etkisi tespit edilememiştir. Dolayısıyla, H1 hipotezinin ikinci kısmı ve H2 hipotezinin tamamı bulgularca desteklenmemiştir. Hemşirelerde yaşın dinî başa çıkma, psikolojik dayanıklılık ve tükenmişlik sendromu üzerindeki etkileri incelendiğinde; olumlu dinî başa çıkma, olumsuz dinî başa çıkma ve psikolojik dayanıklılığa anlamlılık derecesinde herhangi bir etkisi tespit edilememiştir. Buna karşın yaş ile tükenmişlik sendromu arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki vardır. Hemşirelerin yaş seviyeleri arttıkça tükenmişlik sendromuna eğilimlerinin azaldığı söylenebilir. Elde edilen bulgular göstermektedir ki; H3’ün tamamı ve H4’ün ilk kısmı reddedilirken; H4’ün ikinci kısmını ifade eden “Tükenmişlik yaşa bağlı azalmaktadır” desteklenmektedir. Hemşirelerde, olumlu dinî başa çıkmanın diğer değişkenler üzerindeki etkileri incelendiğinde, psikolojik sağlamlık ve tükenmişlik sendromu üzerinde olumlu veya olumsuz istatiksel olarak anlamlılık ifade eden bir etkisi görülmemektedir. Dolayısıyla, çalışmanın araştırma maddelerinden biri olan psikolojik sağlamlığın olumlu dinî başa çıkma ile tükenmişlik sendromu arasında aracı rolü oynama durumu istatiksel olarak mümkün değildir. Buradan hareketle, H5 ve H8 hipotezlerinin reddedildiği söylenebilir. Olumlu dinî başa çıkmanın aksine olumsuz dinî başa çıkmanın hemşirelerde hem psikolojik dayanıklılığa hem de tükenmişlik sendromuna etki ettiği görülmektedir. Olumsuz dinî başa çıkma, psikolojik dayanıklılığı olumsuz bir şekilde etkilemektedir. Diğer bir ifadeyle, hemşirelerin olumsuz dinî başa çıkma eğilimi arttıkça psikolojik dayanıklılıklarının düşüş eğilimi gösterdiği söylenebilir. Diğer yandan, psikolojik dayanıklılık ile tükenmişlik sendromu arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki vardır. Hemşirelerin, psikolojik dayanıklılık seviyeleri azaldıkça tükenmişlik sendromuna eğilimleri artmaktadır. Dolayısıyla, burada psikolojik dayanıklılık faktörü diğer iki değişken arasında aracılık rolü oynamaktadır. Bu endirekt etkiyi açmak gerekirse, olumsuz dinî başa çıkma, hemşirelerin psikolojik dayanıklılıklarını azaltmakta ve bu nedenle de dolaylı şekilde tükenmişlik seviyelerini arttırmaktadır. Olumsuz dinî başa çıkmanın, tükenmişlik sendromu üzerindeki etkisi istatiksel olarak anlamlıdır. Katsayısı 0,208 olan pozitif etkinin 0,077’lik kısmı psikolojik dayanıklılık üzerinden endirekt şekilde gerçekleşmektedir. Bu bulgular doğrultusunda, H6, H7 ve H9 hipotezlerinin desteklendiği söylenebilir.

This study tried to find out the trends of domestic research on teacher occupational stress in order to suggest the direction of teacher job stress research. For this purpose, descriptive statistical analysis and semantic network analysis were performed on 139 academic papers published in journals registered and candidates for registration with the National Research Foundation of Korea. The main results of this study are as follows. The subjects of the study were elementary school teachers the most, and the most used scale in the study was that of Kim Jeong-hwi(1991). As the analysis method, regression analysis was used the most, and for the variable setting, the teacher's occupational stress as an independent variable was the most frequently used. The keyword with the highest frequency of appearance was ‘occupational stress’, and the keyword pair with the highest frequency of occurrence was ‘occupational stress-psychological burnout’. Stress, psychological burnout, job satisfaction, elementary school teachers were found to be high in both degree centrality and betweenness centrality.

중등교사의 신경증 및 외향성 요인 성격특성과 심리적 소진의 관계에서 스트레스 대처방식의 매개효과

The purpose of this study is to find out whether stress coping models mediate the relationship among neuroticism, extraversion characteristics of personality, and psychological burnout of secondary school teachers. For this purpose, a questionnaire was conducted to teachers in secondary schools in Gyeonggi-do. A total of 420 copies of the collected data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 23.0. The research results are as follows: First, the teacher's neuroticism factor had a significant positive correlation with psychological exhaustion while the extraversion factor had a significant negative correlation with psychological exhaustion. Neurotic factors were significantly, positively correlated with emollient coping and wishful thinking models. Extraversion factors were significantly positively correlated with problem-focused, social support-seeking, and wishful thinking coping models. Second, in the relationship between the neurotic factor and psychological exhaustion of teachers, only the emotionally easing coping mechanism had a mediating effect, and only the problem-focused coping mechanism had a mediating effect in the relationship between the extraversion factor and psychological exhaustion. This result suggests that personality characteristics for each factor can affect psychological exhaustion and the importance of stress coping models according to personality characteristics.
