Objectives The present study was designed to test the demand-control model using indicators of both health impairment and active learning or motivation. Methods A total 381 insurance company employees participated in study. Discriminant analysis used examine relationship between job demands control on one hand other. Results amount could be predicted basis employees` perceived (exhaustion complaints) (engagement commitment). Each four combinations demand differentially affected perception...
Two longitudinal studies investigated the issue of match between job stressors and resources in prediction job-related strain. On basis triple-match principle (TMP), it was hypothesized that are most likely to moderate relation strains if resources, stressors, all match. Resources less (a) only match, (b) or (c) least there is no among strains. The TMP tested 280 267 health care workers 2 surveys. likelihood finding moderating effects linearly related degree with 33.3% interactions becoming...
There is increasing interest in sustainable employment throughout employees’ careers, which makes work environments more and important. This study investigates key components of systems (i.e., job demands resources) their association with employee well-being performance. Specifically, using two prominent theoretical frameworks, the interaction between resources was studied on one hand performance other. A cross-sectional survey online questionnaires performed among 154 office workers a...
This article describes a two‐wave panel study which was carried out to examine reciprocal relationships between job characteristics and work‐related psychological well‐being. Hypotheses were tested in sample of 261 health care professionals using structural equation modelling (LISREL 8). Controlling for gender, age, negative affectivity, the results primarily supported hypothesis that Time 1 influence 2 More specifically, satisfaction determined by demands workplace social support,...
Empirical research on Karasek's job demand–control (JD‐C) model has often failed to demonstrate the predicted interaction effect of high demands and low control measures strain. It been suggested that conceptualization dimension as well neglect workers' individual characteristics in JD‐C may be responsible for its relative lack empirical support. In current study among 367 Dutch nurses from 18 intensive care units, a more focused measure was used. addition, two (i.e. active coping need...
Specific determinants of intrinsic work motivation, burnout and turnover intentions: a study among nurses This 156 Dutch general hospital tested theoretically derived model specific relationships between stressors stress reactions. The proposes four central domains the situation, namely content, working conditions, social labour relations, conditions employment. In addition, three important reactions, diminished occupational an inclination to leave job. More specifically, it was hypothesized...
The most striking development in modern work organizations is the changing nature of itself and its increased mental emotional workload. Since early sixties, many attempts have been made to gain more insight into particular relationship between work-related psychosocial risks employee health by means theoretical models. One these models Demand-Control-Support (DCS) Model. DCS Model distinguishes from other stress simplicity extent which it has gained a paradigmatic function research field...
Warr's (1987) Vitamin Model was investigated in a representative sample of 1437 Dutch health care workers (i.e. nurses and nurses' aides). According to this model, it hypothesized that three job characteristics demands, autonomy, workplace social support) are curvilinearly related with key indicators employee well-being satisfaction, job-related anxiety, emotional exhaustion). Structural equation modelling (LISREL 8) employed test the comprehensive Model. The results showed fit non-linear...

In hoofdstukken wordt zowel theoretisch als toegepast onderzoek beschreven, ieder hoofdstuk bevat een analytisch overzicht discussies die momenteel heersen psychologie. Daarnaast ook ingegaan op toekomstige trends. De...
This longitudinal study tested a theoretically derived pattern of specific relationships between work characteristics and outcomes. The research model proposed four central domains the situation (i.e. task characteristics, workload, social support unmet career expectations) three important psychological outcomes intrinsic motivation, emotional exhaustion turnover intention). More specifically, it was hypothesized that motivation is primarily predicted by challenging characteristics; high...
This cross-sectional questionnaire study presents a multi-level analysis on 2565 workers in 188 departments 36 organizations the Netherlands. A three-level model is used which individual are nested within departments, turn organizations. Research questions concern (1) amount and distribution of variance job-related stress explained for three levels (individuals, organizations), (2) specificity relationships between psychosocial job demands model. Well-being showed slightly more raw to be at...
This study of two different samples (245 bank employees and 362 teachers) tested a theoretically derived pattern specific relationships between work stressors outcome variables. The research model proposes four central domains the situation: content, working conditions, social labour relations, conditions employment. In addition, three important variables: intrinsic motivation, emotional exhaustion, turnover intention. More specifically, it was hypothesized that: (1) motivation is primarily...
It is imperative that the university environment be supportive and capable of nurturing optimal learning performance in students. Using job design work stress theories, study assessed relationships between psychosocial characteristics, well-being satisfaction, a random sample survey Australian students (N = 176). Methodological improvements were time lag measures, an objective measure performance, LISREL structural equation modeling. Results showed high levels psychological distress low both...
This paper summarizes the state of affairs European research on ageing and work. After a close inspection age construct, an overview is presented in four areas: relationship between HR-policies, early retirement, performance/employability, health/well-being. The results agenda work recommendations for practice.
The present study addresses theoretical issues involving different interaction effects between job demands and resources, accompanied by a thorough empirical test of terms in the demand–control (DC) model effort–reward imbalance (ERI) relation to employee health well-being (i.e., exhaustion, psychosomatic complaints, company-registered sickness absence). Neither DC nor ERI gives clear rationale or preference for particular term. Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted among 405...
The aim of this study is to investigate the moderating effect matching job resources as well off-job recovery (i.e., detachment from work) on relation between corresponding demands and psychological outcomes. Using Demand-Induced Strain Compensation (DISC) Model a theoretical framework, we conducted cross-sectional survey with 399 employees three Dutch organizations. Results showed that (1) cognitive demands, resources, lack are predictors outcomes active learning creativity), (2) emotional...

The purpose of this study was to test the Demand-Control Model (DCM), accompanied by three goals. Firstly, we used alternative, more focused, and multifaceted measures both job demands control that are relevant applicable today's working contexts. Secondly, intended focus on particular in human services work incorporate these DCM. Finally, occupation-based investigated relatively large well-defined subgroups compared a total sample. Workers from five service sectors (n = 2,485) were included...
This study investigates the demand-~ontrol-support (DCS) model by (a) using a more focused measure of job control, (b) testing for interactive and nonlinear relationships, (c) further extending to prediction an objective outcome (i.e., companyadministrated sickness absence).Hypotheses were tested in heterogeneous sample 1,739 employees from 3-year prospective cohort called SMASH (Study on Musculoskeletal Disorders, Absenteeism, Stress, Health).Baseline results showed that linear additive was...
