Job demands and resources as antecedents of work engagement: A longitudinal study
2007
Abstract By utilizing a 2-year longitudinal design, the present study investigated the experience of work engagement and its antecedents among Finnish health care personnel ( n = 409). The data were collected by questionnaires in 2003 (Time 1) and in 2005 (Time 2).

The disenchantment of professionals in a new, implemented model of primary health care in Spain: A structural equations model
1992
Abstract A new model of primary health care has been progressively implemented in Spain. Previous research (Peiro and Gonzalez-Roma 1991) suggested that the implementation of this new model has produced a kind of disenchantment—that is, an experience of negative surprise—among health care professionals involved. In the present paper, a structural equations model about the antecedents and consequences of the experience of surprise is tested in a sample of 432 health care professionals working in 44 Primary Health Care Teams (PHCT). The results obtained showed that the number of uncovered functions in the PHCTs, the discrepancy between actual and desired time allocation, and the assessment of…

Education and the Determinants of Job Satisfaction
2005
Abstract Using a representative sample of Spanish individuals, we explore the effects of workers’ education on self‐assessed satisfaction with diverse specific aspects of their jobs. We find that the effects of education level on job satisfaction differ, both in size and direction, according to the aspect of the job considered, especially after controlling for actual job attributes and other workers’ characteristics. We also find that workers’ perceptions of the match between education and employment are relevant as determinants of job satisfaction irrespective of workers’ education level.
Supervisor leadership style, employee regulatory focus, and leadership performance: A perspectivism approach
2019
[EN] Drawing on regulatory focus theory, this research proposes that transformational leadership performance depends on followers' circumstances. The analysis of 125 people from two Spanish service firms reveals that, apart from transformational leadership, the presence of academic education, intrinsic job satisfaction and high customer contact, and the absence of family responsibilities, are core conditions for the presence of high leadership performance. The first contribution of this study is the direct inference of follower's regulatory focus from the observation of individuals' circumstances. The second contribution is that leaders should consider followers' circumstances to adopt a su…

2012
En ligne sur http://www.staragon.com/revecap/revista/numeros/58/pdf/gamero_lassibille.pdf; International audience; Tomando como referencia Etiopía, este artículo investiga, en el marco de un modelo probit bivariante, cuáles son los factores que influyen en las probabilidades de que un niño trabaje o siga escolarizado. Los resultados muestran que el trabajo infantil desplaza efectivamente a la demanda de educación y sugieren que prohibir el trabajo infantil, para romper la competencia que se ejerce entre la educación y el empleo, podría perpetuar el nivel de pobreza de las generaciones futuras. Por otro lado, se analizan los factores de los que depende su satisfacción laboral, poniendo espec…
