Strategies and mechanisms in musical affect self-regulation: A new model
2017
This study aimed at investigating the associations between regulation strategies and musical mechanisms involved in musical affect self-regulation. A sample of 571 participants was collected and the data regarding the reported strategies and mechanisms were analysed using correspondence analysis (CA). Three bipolar dimensions – cognition, feelings, and body – were retained for interpretation, thus revealing six contrasting strategic uses of music: cognitive work, entertainment, affective work, distraction, revival, and focus on situation. Clear associations between strategies and mechanisms emerged from the CA, connecting cognitive, feelings-focused, and situational processing with individ…
Cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for insomnia among shift workers: RCT in an occupational health setting
2019
Abstract Introduction The aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy interventions for insomnia (CBT-I) to that of a sleep hygiene intervention in a randomized controlled design among shift workers. We also studied whether the features of shift work disorder (SWD) affected the results. Methods A total of 83 shift workers with insomnia disorder were partially randomized into a group-based CBT-I, self-help CBT-I, or sleep hygiene control intervention. The outcomes were assessed before and after the interventions and at 6-month follow-up using questionnaires, a sleep diary, and actigraphy. Results Perceived severity of insomnia, sleep-related dysfunction…
Coach-athlete perceived congruence between actual and desired emotions in karate competition and training
2017
Coaches can help athletes regulate emotions but would benefit from tools that help them accurately perceive athletes' emotions. In the present study, we investigated the use of video-recorded performances to compare 3 martial artists' ratings of desired and actual emotions with their coach's ratings. Results show how desired emotions progressively fluctuated throughout competition. Furthermore, desired and actual emotions differed between training and performance contexts. Finally, we report correlations between performance and perceived congruence in desired and actual emotions. Cumulatively, results offer support for the video-assisted recall of emotions as an intervention tool in develop…
Variability and trajectories in workplace mood over time: an intra-individual perspective
2021
La presente tesis doctoral ofrece una perspectiva dinámica e intraindividual del constructo de bienestar afectivo en el ámbito laboral. El bienestar afectivo laboral se define como la experiencia frecuente de reacciones afectivas agradables (como la felicidad o la alegría) y la ausencia de reacciones afectivas desagradables (como la ira o la ansiedad) en el trabajo. Experimentar un alto nivel de bienestar afectivo laboral está relacionado con una serie de implicaciones positivas para los individuos. Por ejemplo, los individuos con un mayor nivel de bienestar afectivo laboral tienen una mejor salud mental y física (Wilson et al., 2004), y experimentan una felicidad aumentada en otros ámbitos…
