Introduction
Past studies have revealed an advantage of marriage over singlehood, but the role of relationship status in mental health concerns needs further investigation.
Objective
This paper examined the connection between relationship status and mental health concerns and explored the cognitive and affective mechanisms explaining it, using a multi-method approach.
Method
Study 1 was an online study with equal groups of married (n = 125) or single individuals (n = 125), whereas Study 2 was a probabilistic laboratory study with two natural groups of individuals that were either single (n = 21) or in a relationship (n = 89).
Results
Path analyses showed that attachment avoidance and attentional control could act as mediators explaining the role of relationship status in mental health concerns.
Conclusion
We showed that being in a relationship or being married was associated with better mental health and that the benefits of marriage and couple life on mental health were explained by attachment and attention.

Introduction
Although burnout is perhaps the most frequently reported work-related correlate of attachment insecurity, the role of mitigating variables in that link is less well researched.
Objective
The paper investigates the mediational role of workplace bullying and perceived social support in the link between attachment insecurity and burnout. It was hypothesised that insecurely attached employees would develop burnout via three pathways: (a) by becoming the victims of workplace bullying, (b) by perceiving relatively low support from managers and colleagues due to their attachment insecurity, and (c) by perceiving lower support from managers and colleagues due to them having been bullied.
Method
Two hundred and twenty-two employees from various completed the following questionnaires: Experiences in Close Relationships Questionnaire – Revised, Revised Negative Acts Questionnaire, Social Support Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory – General Survey.
Results
SEM analysis suggested that the two models tested had a good fit, indicating different pathways from bullying to burnout depending on type of attachment insecurity.
Conclusion
Findings could inform interventions empowering victims of bullying and help organisations deal with this serious problem.

While attachment theory has driven decades of empirical research, few studies have focused on the reciprocal behavioral, caregiving, system, defined as the innate motivational system that guides adult responses to people in distress or in need of help. The Caregiving System Scale (CSS) is one of the few tools for measuring sub-optimal caregiving strategies, i.e. hyperactivation and deactivation.
Objective
The aim of this study was to study the psychometric properties of the French version of the CSS and confirm its factor structure. Method: Adult women (N = 201) completed the French version of the CSS online, along with questionnaires to test convergent validity (attachment, empathy, emotion regulation).
Results
Confirmatory factor analyses replicated Colledani et al.'s (2021) three-factor solution: deactivation, anxious hyperactivation, intrusive hyperactivation. Deactivation correlated with avoidant attachment and lower self-reported empathy, while hyperactivation correlated with abandonment anxiety (attachment), regulation difficulties and empathic concern and distress, suggesting good convergent validity. Anxious, but not intrusive, hyperactivation was associated with being a mother and having a helping profession.
Conclusion
This study proposes a 17-item French version of the CSS, organized into three factors that appear to have good fidelity and validity. It also contributes to the conceptualization of the caregiving system by supporting a recent model distinguishing two dimensions of hyperactivation.

Introduction
To explore the link between the personality predisposition of guilt and self-management behaviours, and from a contingent perspective, the boundary condition for the above relationship is also examined.
Objective
This article examines the relation of guilt-proneness to self-management behaviours and the moderating effects of a sense of belonging on the relationships between guilt-proneness and self-management behaviour.
Method
Data are collected from 368 employees from different organizations in Taiwan.
Results
The results of this study show that guilt-proneness is positively correlated with self-management behaviour. Furthermore, regression analyses indicate that sense of belonging plays a significant moderating role in the relationships between guilt-proneness and self-management behaviour.
Conclusion
Finally, based on the results, the implications and limitations of this study and the directions for future research are discussed.

Introduction
This study examined the effects of emotional demands on psychological health among counsellors in Malaysia. Drawing from the job demands–resources (JD-R) model, the research tested the effects of counsellors’ daily emotional demands on their turnover intention, mainly via emotional exhaustion and depressive symptoms.
Objectives
A within-individual design was used to examine the effects of counsellors’ emotional demands on their turnover intention, especially via emotional exhaustion and depressive symptoms.
Methods
The study was conducted among counsellors (n = 47) over a period of four days in two consecutive weeks. The diary survey was collected for two days (Monday and Friday) each week for two consecutive weeks, measuring individuals’ self-reports of emotional demands, week-level emotional exhaustion, depressive symptoms and turnover intention (n = 188 data points). To test all hypotheses, data were analysed using hierarchical linear modelling (HLM).
Results
Counsellors’ daily emotional demands were found have a direct effect on their levels of emotional exhaustion and depressive symptoms. Emotional exhaustion, but not depressive symptoms, was found to mediate the association of daily emotional demands with turnover intention.
Conclusion
Overall, the study revealed that the daily level of emotional exhaustion, but not of depressive symptoms, was positively related to counsellors’ turnover intention. Emotional exhaustion was found to mediate the relationship between counsellors’ emotional demands and their turnover intention. Counsellors with a high level of emotional demands as well as emotional exhaustion tended to have a high level of turnover intention.

Introduction
Injustices are often described as causes for strikes.
Objective
With this study, we aimed to test if trait justice sensitivity (victim and observer sensitivity) was related to strike attitudes, willingness to strike, and non-normative strike behavior and if these relations were mediated by the traits of anger or empathy. Additionally, we compared samples from two countries (Germany and France) in the respective measures.
Method
We collected data from 424 participants (231 were German, 193 were French) using an online questionnaire and established scales. Hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling.
Results
We observed that the effect of victim justice sensitivity on willingness to strike and non-normative strike behavior was mediated by anger. Furthermore, empathy mediated the effect of observer justice sensitivity on the legitimacy of strikes and the support of strikers. The overall model was not moderated by country.
Conclusion
We showed for the first time that trait variables also play a significant role in strike outcomes. Our results imply that national differences in industrial relations systems did not influence our model significantly. Results also indicated (unexpectedly) that French participants reported significantly lower willingness to strike, significantly more negative reactions towards strikes, less legitimacy of strikes, and less support of strikers compared to the German sample – differences that warrant further research examining potential reasons.

Introduction
In the current social context, organizations need to deal with an increasingly heterogeneous workforce. It is therefore necessary to develop measures capable of detecting dynamics of diversity and inclusion in organizations.
Objective and method
This study introduces a new scale, namely the Organizational Diversity and Inclusion Scale (ODIS), which consists of 61 items measuring perceived discrimination, inclusive and discriminatory attitudes toward minority social groups (women, physical/sensory disability, youth workers, seniors, workers of different races and ethnicities, LGBT) and perceptions of diversity management (policy, compliance and structures) in the organizational context. One thousand seven hundred and eighty-four respondents, from both public and private Italian organizations filled in the self-report questionnaire.
Results
Accordingly, an exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated a sixteen-factor structure. Criterion and construct validity were tested through correlation analyses with other scales (affective commitment, job satisfaction, turnover intentions, and mobbing at work) and similar measures (Diversity Climate Scale). Results suggest that the ODIS can be reliably used to measure organizational perceptions of diversity and inclusion in a multilevel perspective.
Conclusion
Findings suggest the importance of using ODIS for multilevel and multidimensional surveys in order to plan and apply actions and interventions, especially among managers.

Introduction
Prior research has focused on management-centric view of HR practices and emphasized employees as passive recipients of such practices. Nevertheless, contemporary research advocates a different perspective by emphasizing that employees can also take self-initiative and proactively engage by redesigning their job contents in order to better translate the impact of HR practices into innovative work behavior (IWB).
Objective
Drawing upon the conservation of resources (COR) theory, this study aims to examine how job crafting contributes to individuals’ bottom-up proactive responses to HR practices that encourage innovative behaviors at work. To make the results more substantive, the moderating role of creative self-efficacy has also been investigated.
Method
The data were collected from academic staff and their respective department heads representing four universities located in Pakistan.
Results
The results revealed that job crafting provides an intervening mechanism in the relationship between ability-motivation-opportunity-enhancement human resources practices (AMO-HRMPs), and creative self-efficacy moderates this relationship.
Conclusion
These findings have implications for department heads who are interested in creating an environment that encourages innovation through job crafting.

Introduction
Trait authenticity has been defined as a dispositional individual difference, and it refers to people's experience of living in accordance with their true Self. Despite research conducted in working contexts has found that trait authenticity is related to people's work engagement, it is not clear if this association may be mediated by other variables.
Objective
Framing trait authenticity within the job demands-resources model, we hypothesized that trait authenticity allows the release of human full potential in terms of personal resources that, in turn, promote work engagement, especially in highly challenging work settings, such as educational ones.
Method
We administered a self-report questionnaire composed of several measurement scales to 446 teachers working in kindergartens, primary schools, and middle schools.
Results and conclusions
A moderated mediation analysis revealed that trait authenticity can promote teachers’ emergence of personal resources, which in turn enhances their work engagement. The study highlights that the role of trait authenticity and personal resources on work engagement acquires a particular salience when teachers face high (vs. low) challenge job demands (i.e., workload), that is when this reservoir of potential is needed the most.
