The role of career values for work engagement during the transition to working life
2013
Abstract The present longitudinal study examined the role of career values for work engagement across the transition from university education to working life. Finnish young adults reported on their career values (intrinsic, rewards, and security values) at the age of 23; and the degree of person–organization fit (value congruence, and congruence between one's education and the job), subjective income and economic stress two years later at the age of 25. Work engagement was assessed at both measurement points. Structural equation modeling results showed, first, that intrinsic but not rewards or security career values were related to work engagement. Second, value congruence and having a job…
Profiling development of burnout over eight years: relation with job demands and resources
2020
The aim of the present study was twofold: First, to profile the long-term development of burnout symptoms (exhaustion, cynicism and reduced professional efficacy), and second, to investigate the associations of developmental burnout profiles with job demands and resources. The study focused on Finnish white-collar professionals (N = 169) who participated in a survey five times during eight years (in 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014). At each measurement time, the participants filled in the same scales of burnout, job demands and job resources. Using Latent Profile Analysis (LPA), three developmental profiles of burnout symptoms were identified: 1) Stable, low burnout (78%), 2) Exhaustion in…
Stability and change model of job resources and work engagement: A seven-year three-wave follow-up study
2015
Using the stability and change model, conservation of resources theory and the job demands-resources model, this study aimed to determine: (1) the extent to which work engagement and job resources can be explained by a component reflecting stability and a component reflecting change in these constructs, and (2) the strength and direction of the relationship between work engagement and job resources when their stable components are controlled for. The study was carried out among 1,964 Finnish dentists over a seven-year time period (2003–2010), using a three-wave dataset. Some of the dentists had changed jobs during the follow-up, and therefore the research questions were validated among grou…
Probabilités d’orientation déjouées par le sport : le cas des étudiantes à l’université
2022
Introduction En 2020, les femmes restent sous-représentées dans le monde du sport, aussi bien parmi les pratiquantes, plus encore parmi les sportives de haut niveau, les dirigeantes et présidentes de fédérations sportives. Dans ce contexte, la dimension sportive des étudiantes à l’université leur confère un profil « atypique ». Les unes choisissent le domaine d’étude dédié aux métiers du sport, les STAPS (sciences et techniques des activités physiques et sportives), représentant le tiers des ...
Orthotopic MAINZ pouch bladder substitution – long-term follow-up
2021
Introduction After radical cystectomy, orthotopic neobladder is one surgical strategy for urinary diversion. To assess the usefulness of an operation, long-term data are essential. We examined long-term complications and continence rates of orthotopic ileocecal (MAINZ pouch) bladder substitution. Material and methods Between 1986 and 2011, 193 patients underwent orthotopic MAINZ pouch bladder substitution. Until July 2000, ureter implantation was performed into the ascending colon through a submucosal tunnel technique (Goodwin-Hohenfellner). After July 2000, ureters were implanted into the terminal Ileum using the ileocecal valve to prevent reflux: the left spatulated ureter by an end-to-en…
Longitudinal study of age and order of eruption of primary teeth in Indian children
2010
Objective: To determine the chronological eruption parameters of primary teeth in Indian children. Study Design: A longitudinal study consisting of 135 healthy children (74 boys and 61 girls) attending three child health centres in the city of Hyderabad, India were randomly selected and followed from the emergence of the first to the last tooth. Ages and order of tooth eruption were studied for both genders. Results: Boys showed tendency towards earlier eruption for all teeth except maxillary second molar and maxillary/mandibular first molars which erupted earlier in girls. Comparison between maxillary and mandibular showed a tendency to earlier mandibular eruption of central incisors, late…
Prevalence of elongation and calcification patterns of elongated styloid process in south india
2012
Objective: Very few studies have been reported in the literature classifying the elongation and calcification patterns of styloid process. The present study was done to investigate the prevalence of elongation and calcification patterns of styloid process in patients attending a dental institution in south India. Study design: 600 digital panoramic radiographs of patients with dental problems were obtained from the outpatient department of the Dental institution. The apparent length of the styloid process was measured by a single experienced oral radiologist, with the help of the measuring tools on the accompanying software. The type of elongation and calcification patterns of each elongate…
Kavapyrone enriched extract fromPiper methysticum as modulator of the GABA binding site in different regions of rat brain
1994
Regional differences in the modulation of [3H] muscimol binding to GABAA receptor complexes by kavapyrones, compounds of the rhizome of the plant Piper methysticum which possess sedative activity, were demonstrated using membrane fractions obtained from target brain centers of kavapyrone action: hippocampus (HIP), amygdala (AMY) and medulla oblongata (MED), and from brain centers outside the main kavapyrone effects as frontal cortex (FC) and cerebellum (CER). The kava extract enhanced the binding of [3H] muscimol in a concentration-dependent manner with maximal potentiation of 358% over control in HIP followed by AMY and MED (main target brain centers). Minimal stimulation was observed in C…
Biological parameters of Neoseiulus longilaterus (Athias-Henriot) (Parasitiformes, Phytoseiidae) fed on prey and pollen in laboratory conditions
2019
Tetranychus urticae is the most important pest on different crops worldwide. Search for endemic phytoseiid mites co-occurring with the above pest, which might be good candidates as biocontrol agents, represents the policy followed by most scientists in recent years. The aim of the present work was to assess the various biological and demographic parameters of Neoseiulus longilaterus, associated with T. urticae on weeds, in laboratory conditions using the latter tetranychid and pollen of Oxalis pes-caprae as food. The results showed a better performance of the predator on the prey as regards the postembryonic development (7.63 and 8.18 days for prey and pollen respectively) and the demograph…
