This study examined the factor structure and measurement invariance of Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) across different groups (German employees vs. German students) tested academic burnout samples from countries (Greek students). Our results supported proposed two-factor for each sample separately. In addition, multigroup analyses partially equivalence job within Greek students. sum, we suggest that OLBI is a robust instrument in both contexts: work academic.
Background: The perspective of users should be taken into account in the evaluation Web-based health interventions. Assessing users’ satisfaction with intervention they receive could enhance evidence for effects. Thus, there is a need valid and reliable measures to assess
The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) is a popular instrument for measuring the degree to which individuals appraise situations in their lives as excessively uncontrollable and overloaded. Despite its widespread use (e.g., evaluating intervention effects stress management studies), there still no agreement on factor structure. Hence, aim of present study was examine dimensionality, measurement invariance (i.e., across gender, samples, time), reliability, validity PSS. Data from 11,939 German...
This study evaluates a three‐week online self‐training intervention teaching mindfulness as cognitive–emotional segmentation strategy. Daily effects on psychological detachment, affective well‐being, and strain‐based work–family conflict, satisfaction with work–life balance were assessed, particular focus whether preferences moderate training responsiveness. A randomized wait‐list control group design was used for administering daily questionnaires to 190 participants. Psychological...
Background: Many individuals engaging in Internet-based interventions fail to complete these treatments as intended. The processes responsible for treatment adherence are still poorly understood. Objective: aim of this study was investigate what extent an intervention can be predicted by motivational and volitional factors outlined the health action process approach (HAPA). Methods: This investigated included HAPA a randomized controlled trial predict N=101 with subclinical depression group...
The main objective of this study was to investigate reciprocal effects between personal resources, job/study engagement, and mental health. Building on the Conservation Resources Theory Job–Demands (JD-R) model, we explored whether positive cycles evolve all variables over time. In two studies surveyed 326 psychotherapists 550 students in three waves respectively a 5-month time lag. Structural equation modelling analyses revealed that variables, health, show direct relationships Mediation...
Interest in the use of ecological momentary interventions – that is, are implemented participants' everyday lives to change experiences and behaviours has grown rapidly recent years. In particular, EMI s which intervention is delivered on a daily basis (daily interventions) can be easily combined with diary studies analyse effects dependent variables ( DV s) fluctuate over time. This article first provides typology research designs classify according (1) type assessment (global small number...
On the basis of activation theory and challenge-hindrance demands model, this study was conducted to clarify functional form (linear vs. curvilinear) within-persons relations time pressure with vigour absorption. Further, we investigated whether these would be moderated by time-varying job control. A total 52 full-time employees (44% female) participated in study, which included two assessments per day over course 2 work weeks. Our analyses confirmed an inverted U-shaped association between...
Abstract. Interoception is defined as an iterative process that refers to receiving, accessing, appraising, and responding body sensations. Recently, following extensive of development, Mehling colleagues (2012) proposed a new instrument, the Multidimensional Assessment Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA), which captures these different aspects interoception with eight subscales. The aim this study was reexamine dimensionality MAIA by applying maximum likelihood confirmatory factor analysis...
Abstract The COVID‐19 lockdowns represent a major life event with an immense impact on university students' lives. Findings prior to the pandemic suggest that changes in personality and subjective well‐being (SWB) can occur after critical events or psychological interventions. present study examined how extraversion, neuroticism, SWB changed during two Germany. To this end, we conducted partly preregistered, two‐cohort four measurement points each from October 2019 May 2021 ( N Study 1 =...
Background Sensors embedded in smartphones allow for the passive momentary quantification of people’s states context their daily lives real time. Such data could be useful alleviating burden ecological assessments and increasing utility clinical assessments. Despite existing research on using sensor to assess participants’ moment-to-moment activity levels, only limited has investigated temporally linking assessment self-reported further integrate 2 methodologies. Objective We whether sparse...
Abstract Our objective is to implement a single-case experimental design (SCED) infrastructure in combination with experience-sampling methods (ESM) into the standard diagnostic procedure of German outpatient research and training clinic. Building on idea routine outcome monitoring, SCED introduces intensive longitudinal data collection, individual effectiveness measures, opportunity for systematic manipulation push personalization efforts further. It aims empower psychotherapists patients...
Recovering from work is essential for maintaining occupational well-being, health, motivation, and performance, but recovery often difficult to achieve. In this study, we evaluated compared the effectiveness of two (parallel) interventions aimed at promoting recovery: one based on mindfulness involving applying cognitive-behavioral strategies. Both were embedded in a measurement burst design, which allowed us examine mechanisms underlying change or intervention success. To explore change,...
The COVID-19 pandemic constitutes a prolonged global crisis, but its effects on mental health seem inconsistent. This inconsistency highlights the importance of considering differential impact individuals. There is some evidence that trajectories are heterogeneous and both sociodemographic personal characteristics associated with higher risk for issues. By contrast, information role social factors as potential determinants initial reactions to over time lacking. We analysed seven assessments...
There is sample evidence that work conditions affect employees' well-being. Losses in quality (increased job stressors and reduced resources) are thought to be related deteriorations well-being, whereas gains (reduced increased believed improve The way most previous studies tested linkages between well-being assumes as much a loss harms gain results an improvement. However, Hobfoll's conservation of resources (COR) theory argues losses have stronger impact than do. To date, this assumption...
Abstract Work fatigue represents an essential construct for understanding employee health and safety. In this study, we developed explored the psychometric properties of a German version Three‐Dimensional Fatigue Inventory examined set hypothesized correlates work fatigue. Data came from sample 439 workers. Consistent with original measure, confirmatory factor analyses supported three‐factor solution (physical, mental, emotional fatigue), estimates internal consistency reliability exceeded...
Abstract Childhood maltreatment (CM) is thought to be associated with altered responses social stimuli and interpersonal signals. However, limited evidence exists that CM linked larger comfortable distance (CID) – the physical humans prefer towards others during interactions. no previous study has investigated this association in a comprehensive sample, yielding sufficient statistical power. Moreover, preliminary findings are European region. Finally, it unclear how affects CID different...
Resilience has been defined as the maintenance or quick recovery of mental health during and after stressor exposure. One popular operationalization this concept is to model prototypical trajectories in response an adverse event, where undisturbed low rapidly recovering symptoms both comply with resilience definition. However, responses are likely also influenced by other stressors occurring before observation time window. These "background" may affect a person's assignment trajectory class....
In Western samples, individuals differ systematically in the importance they assign to matters of justice and injustice, dispositional Justice Sensitivity can be differentiated according perspectives victim, observer, beneficiary, perpetrator. a cross-cultural comparison between Philippines, Germany, Australia ( N = 677 students), we investigated whether equivalently described by these four perspectives, measurement instruments have invariant psychometric properties, psychological relevance...
Psychological detachment has been proposed to be a mediator of the relations between an individual's responses stressful work-related experiences and mid- long-term health. However, number studies that have specifically examined role personal characteristics play in these associations is considerably small. One characteristic might interfere with psychological perfectionism, which considered important vulnerability factor for development disorders. Hence, goal this registered report was...
The Coping Strategies Questionnaire (CSQ) by Rosenstiel and Keefe (1983) is one of the most widely used measures coping strategies in pain patients, although its construct factorial validity dissatisfying. Verra, Angst, Lehmann, Aeschlimann (2006) translated full measure, which assesses eight different strategies, into German (CSQ-D). Our aim was to identify stable latent dimensions present a shorter more valid version CSQ-D.A principal axes factor analysis (PFA) confirmatory (CFA) were...
AbstractAbstractSexual motivation, the interest in sexual activity, affects people's thinking, feeling, and behavior. Common scales used to assess motivation suffer from drawbacks that limit their validity applicability. We therefore developed validated Trait Sexual Motivation Scale (TSMS), a brief, theory-driven self-report scale, over course of four preregistered studies (Ntotal = 2,083). Results indicated good model fit, high internal consistency stability second-order (i.e., trait...
