Ítem Academic engagement: A diary study on the mediating role of academic support(ELSEVIERRADARWEG 29, 1043 NX AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS, 2020-05) Robayo-Tamayo, Mauricio; Blanco-Donoso, Luis Manuel; Román, Francisco J.; Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Moreno-Jiménez, Bernardo; Garrosa, EvaBased on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model, this diary study investigated the mediator role of academic resources in the relationship between personal resources and variables of well-being. The study postulates that the perceived level of academic support received by students during the day mediates the relationship between the levels of self-efficacy and curiosity, measured early in the day, and the level of academic engagement measured at the end of the day. Ninety-four undergraduates filled in a general questionnaire and subsequently completed a daily questionnaire, for 5 consecutive academic days (470 diary entries). The multilevel analysis showed a positive relationship between self-efficacy and curiosity and academic engagement. In addition, the results revealed a positive relationship between academic support and academic engagement. Finally, the results showed partial mediation of academic support in the relationship between self-efficacy and academic engagement and in the relationship between curiosity and academic engagement. The results can be used to improve teaching and learning programs in colleges and universities.Ítem Emociones positivas laborales(EDICIONES PIRÁMIDE, 2013) Garrosa, Eva; Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Blanco-Donoso, Luis ManuelÍtem Estrés y bienestar en profesionales de enfermería intensiva dentro del ámbito de la donación y el trasplante de órganos: una propuesta desde la psicología de la salud ocupacional(Escuela Nacional de Medicina del Trabajo. Instituto de Salud Carlos III, 2018) Blanco-Donoso, Luis Manuel; Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Moreno-Jiménez, Bernardo; Rodríguez de la Pinta, María Luisa; de Almeida, Elton Carlos; Garrosa, EvaNursing professionals who work in intensive care units and participate in activities related to organ donation and transplantation are exposed to a significant number of stressors their work, which favors the appearance of certain psychosocial risks such as work stress, burnout, secondary traumatic stress, moral stress, and the conflict between work and family. In addition, the new scenarios in our country in relation to organ donation, such as uncontrolled and controlled donation after cardiac death, or the intensive cares oriented to organ donation, generate new situations and stressors among these professionals that increase their exposure to psychosocial risks. Therefore, this paper reviews and proposes the specific demands and causes that could influence the development of these risks these professionals, as well as their possible consequences. It also proposes a series of job and personal resources that could be useful to these workers to face these job demands. These proposals meet many of the needs pointed by reference institutions in this field to prevention and promotion of health and well-being in this group of professionals, as well as to improve the process of organ donation and transplantation.Ítem How do Curiosity, Meaning in Life, and Search for Meaning Predict College Students’ Daily Emotional Exhaustion and Engagement?(SPRINGER, 2017) Garrosa, Eva; Blanco-Donoso, Luis Manuel; Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Moreno-Jiménez, BernardoCollege students face numerous academic demands on a daily basis. The resources of the University and of the students to cope with these demands are essential to explain students’ levels of well-being. The purpose of this investigation is to explore the role of day-level curiosity and meaning in life in the explanation of students’ levels of engagement and emotional exhaustion at night. Two-hundred and nine college students participated in a daily study of five consecutive academic days, completing measures of curiosity and meaning in life in the afternoon and measures of engagement and emotional exhaustion at night. Data were analyzed using MLwiN software from a hierarchical linear modeling and daily approach. Curiosity in the afternoon showed a positive relationship with levels of engagement at night, and a negative relationship with levels of emotional exhaustion at night. Moreover, the interaction of curiosity and search for meaning and emotional exhaustion was positive. Although curiosity drives to exploring opportunities and challenges, decreases exhaustion and promotes daily engagement, when curiosity interacts with other emotional loads (such as search for meaning), it can become an emotional overload favoring exhaustion. From this perspective, it is necessary to continue investigating the mechanisms that predict students’ well-being and to create academic environments that stimulate curiosity and support students in their search for meaning in life.Ítem El impacto emocional del incivismo laboral y el abuso verbal en el trabajo: influencia de la recuperación diaria(Editum - Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Murcia (España), 2015) Garrosa, Eva; Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Moreno-Jiménez, Bernardo; Sanz-Vergel, Ana IsabelEl objetivo fue estudiar el impacto diario del incivismo laboral y el abuso verbal en el bienestar emocional de los trabajadores, y explorar el papel de la recuperación. Se realizó un estudio de diario durante cinco días laborales consecutivos (525 días en total) con 105 trabajadores del sector servicios. Se evaluó en dos momentos temporales distintos, general y diario. La medida de diario consistió en la evaluación durante una semana laboral y en distintos momentos del día, mañana, tarde y noche. Los análisis multini-vel mostraron resultados significativos del incivismo laboral y el abuso ver-bal como predictores del agotamiento emocional, y todos sobre el afecto negativo de la noche. No se encontraron relaciones entre estas variables y el afecto positivo de la noche. La recuperación durante la tarde fue clave en el estado afectivo de la noche. La relajación tuvo un efecto directo sobre el afecto negativo y las actividades enriquecedoras sobre el afecto positivo, además se encontraron efectos de moderación de la desconexión psicológi-ca y la relajación. El diseño del estudio puede proporcionar importantes avances en medidas preventivas de la agresión en el ámbito laboral.Ítem Observers’ reactions to workplace incivility in the masculine domain: How does role congruency explain gender bias in future workers?(WILEY, 2019) Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Lopez-Zafra, Esther; Garrosa, EvaBased on Role Congruity Theory, we tested the hypothesis of gender bias by examining gender differences in observers’ evaluations of the awareness and acceptability of workplace incivility gender-dyad interaction. Three hundred and ninety-six Spanish high school students (55.3% female) read one scenario of overt incivility (publicly humiliates and openly doubts the employee’s judgment) or covert (omits and pays little attention) from a leader (female vs. male) toward a subordinate (female vs. male) in engineering. Results indicated gender differences among observers. From the leader actor of incivility, males were more aware and accepted less the incivility when performed by a female leader in a male domain; whereas females were more aware and accepted less incivility than males in all cases. Regarding the subordinate target of incivility, only females were more aware and accepted less incivility, and both males and females were more aware and accepted less covert incivility. Our results reveal practical implications for interventions from a gender perspective.Ítem Personal resources and personal vulnerability factors at work: An application of the Job Demands-Resources model among teachers at private schools in Peru(SPRINGER, 2020-02) Corso-de-Zuniga, Sandra; Moreno-Jimenez, Bernardo; Garrosa, Eva; Blanco-Donoso, Luis Manuel; Carmona-Cobo, IsabelWe examine the role of personal resources (hardiness) and personal vulnerability factors (external locus of control and helplessness) at work, among 430 teachers at private schools. Based on the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model and the conservation of resources theory, we parallel tested both motivational and health-impairment processes on the teachers' individual outcomes. The JDR model's motivational process was related to life satisfaction, and the health impairment process to perception of ill health. We hypothesize that hardiness will foster work engagement and that its role in the motivational process will be to mediate between job resources and work engagement. Then, we hypothesize that hardiness will prevent job burnout. Self-evaluations are expected to be activated by job burnout as an effect of its third dimension, inefficacy. We examine the mediational role of these self-evaluations between job burnout and ill health, and between job burnout and life satisfaction. The hypotheses are tested simultaneously using structured equation modelling. The results indicate that hardiness partially mediates the relationship between job resources and work engagement, and that hardiness reduces job burnout. Self-evaluations did not increase perception of ill health, but they did mediate the relationship between job burnout and life satisfaction. The findings show that hardiness plays the role of a personal resource in the motivational process and that it also has a preventive function against job burnout. Personal vulnerability factors, in the form of self-evaluations, were activated by job burnout, and their role was to significantly reduce life satisfaction. We discuss the implications of these findings.Ítem Positive benefits of caring on nurses' motivation and well-being: A diary study about the role of emotional regulation abilities at work(Elsevier Ltd, 2015) Blanco-Donoso, Luis Manuel; Demerouti, Evangelia; Garrosa, Eva; Moreno-Jiménez, Bernardo; Carmona-Cobo, IsabelBackground: Recent research reveals that not all job demands have negative effects on workers’ well-being and suggests that the negative or positive effects of specific job demands depend on the occupational sector. Specifically, emotional job demands form the heart of the work for nurses and for this reason they can be interpreted by nurses as a challenge that promotes motivation and well-being among these professionals, especially if personal and job resources become available. Objectives: The study had two objectives. First, to examine whether daily emotional demands within a nursing work context have a positive effect on nurses’ daily motivation at work (vigour) and well-being at home (vitality and positive affect). Second, to explore whether this positive effect could be enhanced by nurses’ emotional regulation abilities. Design: This research used a diary design to explore daily experiences and to analyse how variations in specific job or personal characteristics can affect levels of motivation and wellbeing across days. Participants: Fifty-three nurses working in different Spanish hospitals and primary health care centres completed a general questionnaire and a diary booklet over 5 consecutive working days in two different moments, after work and at night (N= 53 participants and N = 265 observations). Results: In line with our hypotheses, multi-level analyses revealed that, on the one hand, daylevel emotional demands at work had a positive effect on vigour at work and on vitality at home. On the other hand, analyses showed that nurses with higher emotional regulation abilities have more motivation at work and well-being at home when they have to face high emotional demands at work, showing a spillover effect after work. Conclusions: These findings support the idea that emotional demands from the nursing profession can act as challenges which promote motivation and well-being, especially if internal emotional resources become available.Ítem The relationships between family-work interaction, job-related exhaustion, detachment, and meaning in lifea day-level study of emotional well-being(Colegio Oficial de la Psicología de Madrid, 2013) Garrosa, Eva; Carmona-Cobo, Isabel; Ladstätter, Félix; Blanco-Donoso, Luis Manuel; Cooper-Thomas, Helena D.The aim of this research was to provide an integrative overview of the associations between employees' daily emotional well-being (positive and negative affect) and family-work interaction, job-related exhaustion, detachment, and meaning in life. Service sector employees in Spain (N = 105) filled out a general measure and daily survey measures over five working days. Results showed that daily family-work conflict, job-related exhaustion and search for meaning in life predicted employees' negative affect at night; conversely, daily detachment and presence of meaning in life had a negative relation with negative affect at night. In contrast, employees' family-work facilitation, detachment, and presence of meaning in life predicted positive affect at night. Moreover, detachment moderated the relationship between family-work conflict and negative affect, and between the presence of meaning in life and positive affect. These findings have practical implications for individuals and organizations and suggest possible avenues for future research.
