EFFICACIA DI DISPOSITIVI FORMATIVI ELABORATIVO-­RIFLESSIVI IN INTERVENTI ORIENTATI ALLO SVILUPPO DELL’IDENTITÀ PROFESSIONALE IN STUDENTI

2013

Introduzione. All’interno di un progetto relativo alla costruzione di un modello psicosociale della qualità universitaria, il contributo si centra sulla verifica di efficacia di dispositivi formativi riflessivi atti a consentire agli studenti il riconoscimento e lo sviluppo virtuoso dei loro modelli di identità, così da facilitare la costruzione di rappresentazioni di ruolo sulle quali fondare competenze idonee a dialogare con la mutevolezza, ormai strutturale, dei contesti e degli utenti delle professioni di aiuto. Obiettivi e metodi I dispositivi utilizzati, gruppi semi-direttivi di discussione, sono stati finalizzati alla esplorazione e trasformazione in chiave meno idealizzante delle ra…

ORGANIZATIONAL STIGMA: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND SYNTHESIS

2022

This systematic review aims to individuate the main theories, types and levels in organizational stigma studies, in order to fix the state of the art about the topic and propose a synthesis of the perspectives re- viewed. Indeed, literature about organizational stigma is growing but suffers of a lack of categorization of the different theoretical frameworks, stigma types classifications and levels of analysis. So, this systematic review includes reviews about organizational stigma and original studies about stigma types and levels. After individuating eight main theoretical frameworks on which organizational stigma is based, we found eight organizational stigma’s classifications of types an…

Teachers’ work-related well-being in times of covid-19: the effects of technostress and distance learning

2022

Following the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the first measures implemented in Italy was the transition from frontal teaching to e-learning. The sudden need to use technologies to perform their job has added a source of stress to teachers’ work, the so-called technostress. The difficulties experienced in this transition may also have affected the perception of work-related well-being, although other variables, such as the perception of the meaningfulness of work, could alleviate this sense of uneasiness. The study aims to examine the relationships between technostress, distance learning, pleasure in working and meaningful work perceptions among 219 teachers from different school …

Quality of life at work in academia: preliminary results for the validation of a tool for Italian university

2019

Purpose: Research on quality of working life in academia appears surprisingly rare in many countries, and in some cases nearly absent. Trying to fill this gap, a team formed by W/O psychologists from 16 Italian universities developed a tool for the assessment of psychosocial risks as well as workers health and wellbeing in universities. The validation of this tool (theoretically based on the Job Demands- Resources model) will be presented in this contribution. Design: A pilot study was conducted on a sample of 120 Italian university researchers/teachers, to make a preliminary test of the psychometric properties of the tool. In order to finalize the validation of the tool a second study was …

Work commitment and engagement in south Italian volunteers

2009

Objectives. Recent research on volunteering has increased its interest in integrating different theoretical models such as motivational and socio-psychological ones. The current research replicates and extends a Swiss survey (Guntert, 2008) among a sample of Italian volunteers. The aim was to examine the antecedents (mainly in terms of motivational factors and identification) of outcomes such as commitment and engagement towards volunteering. Methods. To examine these antecedents and the outcomes, a questionnaire was administered to a sample of 165 young Italian adults who were engaged in various voluntary associations in south Italy (Campania and Sicilia). Results. Our analyses, underlinin…

Workaholism and work engagement: how are they similar? How are they different? A systematic review and meta-analysis

2019

Workaholism and work engagement can be depicted, respectively, as the pathological and the healthy form of heavy work investment. In spite of their different definitions and outcomes on individual and organizational life, workaholism and work engagement are not clearly and adequately distinguished by scholars and researchers as they appear to show some overlapping features. The aim of this investigation was to meta-analyze available studies, selected by systematic review, on the relations between subdimensions of workaholism and work engagement. Thirty-five studies were eligible for analysis. Associations emerged between Working Excessively and Absorption (g = .34), Working Compulsively and…

Differential effects of workaholism and work engagement on the interference between life and work domains

2018

This study analyzed the differences between workaholism and work engagement in relation to their influence on work–life interference. Workaholism is an addiction to work, characterized by obsessive attitude towards job, whereas work engagement concerns a positive pattern of thoughts and feelings about one’s job; these two constructs thus represent pathological and healthy forms of heavy work investment, respectively. As a consequence, it was expected that workaholism and work engagement would have different effects on perceived interference between work and life domains. We assessed levels of workaholism, work engagement, work-to-life interference, and life-to-work interference in a sample …

Workaholism and Work Engagement: How Are They Similar? How Are They Different? A Meta-Analysis of Their Relation

2018

Workaholism and work engagement can be depicted, respectively, as the pathological and the healthy form of heavy work investment. The former has been described as an addiction to work, yielded by the combination of excessive working hours and compulsive working style, whilst the latter has recently been introduced in workplace health literature as a pleasant mental state consisting of vigor, dedication, and absorption. In spite of their different definitions and outcomes on individual and organizational life, workaholism and work engagement are not clearly and adequately distinguished by scholars and researchers, since these two constructs seem to show some overlapping features. The aim of …
