L’apport respectif des habiletés politiques et du sentiment d’efficacité personnelle en regard de la santé psychologique en emploi des directions d’établissement scolaireBergeron Bonnelly, Laura 03 1900 (has links)
La santé psychologique en emploi s’avère un sujet d’intérêt au Québec vu ses nombreuses retombées importantes sur les travailleurs et les organisations. Parmi les différents secteurs d’activités, les travailleurs du milieu de l’éducation, plus spécifiquement les directions d’établissement scolaire, présentent un état de santé psychologique moindre que la population générale. Des responsabilités professionnelles composées de conflits relationnels et d’une surcharge de travail engendrent un coût psychologique pour ces travailleurs. Il s’avère donc important d’identifier les moyens qui permettront d’améliorer et de maintenir une bonne santé psychologique. Le modèle des demandes ressources de l’emploi avance que les ressources interagissent avec les demandes de manière à réduire l’effet négatif de ces dernières sur la santé psychologique en emploi. La thèse aura pour objectif de valider l’effet protecteur de certaines ressources en fonction des principales causes de mauvaise santé des directions d’établissement scolaire. En effet, certaines ressources seraient plus appropriées en fonction des caractéristiques de l’emploi. En considérant que leur état de santé psychologique est principalement engendré par les conflits relationnels et la surcharge de travail vécue en emploi, les habiletés politiques et le sentiment d’efficacité personnel ont été retenus comme ressource. En effet, les études antérieures montrent que posséder un niveau élevé d’habiletés politiques protégerait des difficultés relationnelles, alors que le sentiment d’efficacité personnelle s’avérait utile face à une grande charge de travail.
Sous cette perspective, le premier article vise à étudier la structure factorielle des dimensions de l’inventaire des habiletés politiques auprès d’un poste de gestion et plus particulièrement de directions d’établissement scolaire. Une étude antérieure réalisée auprès de gestionnaires montre que l’outil se déploie en cinq facteurs chez cette population. Les constats indiquent que l’outil se déploie en quatre facteurs pour une population de directions d’établissement scolaire, tel que l’outil original validé auprès d’une population non-cadre.
Le deuxième article valide le rôle des habiletés politiques comme ressources personnelles pour minimiser l’effet néfaste des conflits interpersonnels sur la santé psychologique en emploi, en concordance avec le modèle demande ressource de l’emploi. Le sentiment d’efficacité personnelle sera également considéré comme étant une ressource personnelle pour contrer l’effet des demandes de l’emploi sur la santé psychologique en emploi. Les résultats constatent que seulement la dimension des habiletés politiques, astuce sociale, modère la relation entre l’anxiété et les demandes de l’emploi. / Psychological health at work is a subject of interest in Quebec because of is many important repercussions on workers and organizations. Among the different sectors of activity, workers in the education sector, more specifically school principals, have a lower level of psychological health than the general population. Professional responsibilities composed of relational conflicts and overwork, generate a psychological cost for these workers. It is therefore important to identify ways to improve and maintain good psychological health. The Employment Resource Requests model suggests that resources interact with demands to reduce the negative impact of demands on psychological health in employment. The aim of the thesis will be to validate the protective effect of certain resources according to the main causes of poor health of school management. Indeed, some resources would be more appropriate depending on the characteristics of the job. Considering that their psychological state of health is mainly caused by relational conflicts and the overload of work experienced in employment, political skills and the feeling of personal efficiency were retained as resources. Indeed, previous studies show that having a high level of political skills would protect relational difficulties, while the feeling of self-efficacy proved useful in the face of a large workload.
From this perspective, the first article aims to study the factorial structure of the dimensions of the inventory of political skills in a management position and more specifically school management. An earlier study of managers shows that the tool is deployed in five factors in this population. The findings indicate that the tool is deployed in four factors for a population of principals, such as the original tool validated with a non-executive population.
The second article validates the role of political skills as a personal resource to minimize the adverse effect of interpersonal conflict on psychological health in employment, in line with the employment demand model. Self-efficacy will also be considered as a personal resource to counter the effect of job demands on psychological health in employment. The results find that only the dimension of political skills, social trick, moderates the relationship between anxiety and job demands.

Samband mellan Mental Health Literacy och idrottares psykologiska hälsostatus: : En longitudinell sambandsstudie baserad på idrottare / Relationship between Mental Health Literacy and athletes'psychological health status: : A longitudinal relationship study based on athletesOsdautaj, Seadra, Pelmas, Jessica January 2022 (has links)
Syftet med studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan Mental Health Literacy (MHL) och psykologisk ohälsa och hälsa via variablerna emotionell och fysisk utmattning, ångest, depression, muskeldysmorfi, välbefinnande inom idrott, harmonisk passion samt tvångsmässig passion. Det specifika syftet var att undersöka om MHL kan predicera psykologiska hälsa och ohälsa. Tidigare studier har visat signifikanta samband mellan idrottares Mental Health Literacy (MHL) och deras psykologiska hälsa, där forskning indikerar att låga nivåer av MHL leder till försämrad psykologisk hälsa jämfört med de som skattar hög MHL (Kutcher et al., 2016). I föreliggande studie användes en kvantitativ longitudinell forskningsdesign där sammanlagt 70 idrottare deltog i åldrarna 15–35 år (M= 23.7, SD= 5.69). Deltagarna rekryterades via ett tillgänglighetsurval och besvarade en enkät vid två mättillfällen, vilket innehöll sex frågeformulär. Resultatet indikerar att det inte finns något samband över tid mellan MHL och psykologisk hälsa hos idrottare. Detta indikerar att varken låga eller höga nivåer av MHL kan predicera en idrottares kommande psykologiska hälsa. Resultatet i föreliggande studie belyser att det finns goda skäl till mer forskning kring sambandet mellan MHL och psykologisk hälsa inom idrotten. / The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between Mental Health Literacy (MHL) and psychological health and illness through the variables emotional and physical exhaustion, anxiety, depression, muscle dysmorphia, well-being in sports, harmonious and obsessive passion. More specifically, the purpose was to investigate whether MHL can predict psychological health and illness. Previous studies have shown a significant relationship between athletes' Mental Health Literacy (MHL) and their psychological health, the research indicates that low levels of MHL lead to poorer psychological health compared to those who rate high MHL (Kutcher et al., 2016). A quantitative longitudinal research design was used in this study and a total of 70 athletes aged 15–35 years participated (M = 23.7, SD = 5.69). Participants were recruited via an availability sample and answered a questionnaire on two measurement occasions, which contained six questionnaires. The results indicate that there is no relationship over time between MHL and psychological health. More specifically, the results indicate that neither low or high levels of MHL can predict an athlete's future psychological health. The results of the present study highlight that there are good reasons for more research about the relationship between MHL and psychological health in sports.

Démystification de la résilience et des liens avec la santé psychologique en contexte organisationnelLe Boeuf, Élodie 04 1900 (has links)
Thèse de doctorat présentée en vue de l'obtention du doctorat en psychologie - recherche (Ph.D) / La santé psychologique est une composante essentielle au bon
fonctionnement quotidien des individus. Celle-ci est influencée par plusieurs
facteurs, dont leur emploi. Un employé possédant une bonne santé psychologique
n’est pas seulement fondamental pour son propre bien-être, mais également pour
les objectifs de l’organisation qui l’emploie. Effectivement, un employé qui vit
beaucoup de bien-être psychologique au travail est plus satisfait de son emploi et
est plus productif et efficace à la tâche. A contrario, un employé en détresse
psychologique à son travail est à risque de développer plusieurs troubles
psychologiques, dont la dépression, le burnout et l’anxiété, menant à plusieurs
comportements indésirables et à un roulement du personnel accru. La résilience est
un phénomène permettant aux employés de mieux gérer les conséquences toxiques
des adversités caractéristiques du milieu organisationnel sur leur santé
psychologique en protégeant leur bien-être et en limitant les impacts négatifs sur
leur détresse psychologique. Les objectifs de cette thèse sont donc de rapporter les
principales lacunes de la littérature scientifique au sujet des liens entre la résilience
et la santé psychologique en milieu organisationnel et de proposer un modèle
prédictif de la santé psychologique chez les directions et directions adjointes des
établissements scolaires francophones.
Le premier article est une revue de portée qui cartographie la connaissance
scientifique sur les liens statistiques directs et indirects entre la résilience et deux
facteurs de santé psychologique : le bien-être et la détresse psychologique. Cet
article recueille les résultats d’études sur un large éventail d’emplois et de pays
d’origine. Plusieurs biais et lacunes en lien avec la validité externe sont observés. La
majorité des études proviennent des pays catégorisés WEIRD, étudient les emplois
du secteur de la santé et sont motivées par l’arrivée d’une catastrophe telle que la
pandémie au COVID-19.
Le deuxième article propose un modèle prédictif du bien-être et de la
détresse psychologique chez les directions et directions adjointes d’établissements
ii
scolaires francophones ontariennes et québécoises. Le modèle stipule que le climat
de travail, la résilience et les habiletés politiques sont des inducteurs directs du
bien-être et de la détresse. Le modèle proposé est également comparé à un modèle
alternatif basé sur la théorie de conservation des ressources. Selon l’analyse
acheminatoire, le modèle proposé représente le mieux les données et le climat de
travail et la résilience prédisent statistiquement le bien-être et la détresse
psychologique. La résilience est également le meilleur prédicteur de la santé
psychologique. / Psychological health is an essential component for the proper daily
functioning of individuals. This is influenced by several factors, including their work.
An employee with good psychological health is not only fundamental for their own
well-being, but also for the objectives of the organization that employs them. Indeed,
an employee who experiences a lot of psychological well-being at work is more
satisfied with their job and is more productive and efficient at work. Conversely, an
employee in psychological distress is at risk of developing several psychological
disorders, including depression, burnout, and anxiety, leading to several undesirable
behaviors and increased staff turnover. Resilience is a phenomenon that allows
employees to better manage the toxic consequences of the adversities characteristic
of the organizational setting on their psychological health by protecting their well being and limiting the negative impacts on their psychological distress. The
objectives of this thesis are therefore to report the gaps in the scientific literature on
the links between resilience and psychological health in an organizational setting
and to propose a predictive model of psychological health among principals and
vice-principals of French-speaking schools.
The first article is a scoping review that maps scientific knowledge on the
direct and indirect statistical links between resilience and the two factors of
psychological health: well-being and psychological distress. This article collects the
results of studies on a wide range of jobs and countries of origin. Several
shortcomings and biases are observed. The majority of studies come from countries
categorized as WEIRD, study jobs in the health sector and are motivated by the
arrival of a disaster such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
The second article proposes a predictive model of well-being and
psychological distress among principals and vice-principals of French-speaking
schools from Ontario and Québec. The model states that work climate, resilience and
political skills are direct drivers of well-being and distress. The proposed model is
also compared to an alternative model based on the resource conservation theory.
According to the path analysis, the proposed model best fits the data, and work
climate and resilience statistically predict well-being and psychological distress.
Resilience is also the best predictor of psychological health.

Guidelines for a psycho-educational programme to enhance self-actualisation of retired peopleKerr, Pamela Pearl 11 1900 (has links)
The aim of this research is to develop guidelines for a psycho-educational programme to enhance the self-actualisation of retired people. To do this, an investigation was undertaken to determine how to enhance self-actualisation during retirement, through an understanding of the:
• phenomenon of retirement;
• concept of self-actualisation;
• challenges that hamper adjustment and self-actualisation during retirement;
• factors which assist retirees in overcoming challenges and achieving self-actualisation; and
• the role of psycho-educational programmes in enhancing self-actualisation during retirement.
The literature study sought to promote such an understanding through the investigation of writings and research findings. The qualitative investigation attempted to provide a contextual understanding of the above, through an exploration of the retirement experiences of a selected group of retirees living in George (and surrounding area), South Africa. The findings served as the basis for guidelines for a psycho-educational programme to enhance the self-actualisation of retired people. / Psychology of Education / M.Ed. (Guidance and Counselling)

L’émission des comportements inadaptés au travail : adaptation ou explication quant à la relation entre la perception de la justice organisationnelle et la santé psychologique des individus au travailDurand, Jean-Christophe 05 1900 (has links)
La présente thèse de doctorat porte sur la relation entre la perception de la justice organisationnelle, l’émission de comportements inadaptés au travail et la santé psychologique des individus au travail. En plus de développer un outil de mesure des comportements inadaptés au travail et d’entreprendre un processus de validation de celui-ci, le présent travail propose que les comportements inadaptés au travail puissent occuper un rôle soit protecteur ou explicatif dans la relation qui unit la perception de la justice organisationnelle avec la santé psychologique des individus au travail. Au sein de cette thèse, le premier article recense la documentation scientifique quant aux variables de la perception de la justice organisationnelle, de l’émission des comportements inadaptés au travail et de la santé psychologique des individus au travail, ainsi que les liens qui unissent ces variables. Aussi, les modèles conceptuels des rôles modérateur et médiateur des comportements inadaptés au travail sont proposés au sein de la relation entre la perception de la justice organisationnelle et la santé psychologique des individus au travail. Le deuxième article a pour objectif de développer un outil de mesure des comportements inadaptés au travail et de tester ses propriétés psychométriques. Ainsi, des analyses statistiques exploratoires et confirmatoires ont été effectuées. Afin d’appuyer la valeur critériée de l’outil proposé, une analyse corrélationnelle a été réalisée avec le critère de l’adaptation. Certaines valeurs psychométriques de l’outil sont validées par les résultats obtenus. Le troisième article examine empiriquement les modèles conceptuels des rôles anticipés des comportements inadaptés au travail dans la relation entre la perception de la justice organisationnelle et la santé psychologique des individus au travail. La perception de la justice organisationnelle a été vue sous les composantes distributive, procédurale, informationnelle et interpersonnelle. De son côté, la santé psychologique des individus a été observée par le biais des éléments du bien-être et de la détresse psychologique au travail. Les différentes analyses de régressions multiples hiérarchiques ont permis d’observer l’absence du rôle modérateur des comportements inadaptés au travail. Pour sa part, l’utilisation du test de Sobel a démontré la présence du rôle médiateur des comportements inadaptés au travail dans certaines relations. Plus exactement, celles-ci sont la relation entre la justice interpersonnelle et le bien-être psychologique au travail, la relation entre la justice interpersonnelle et la détresse psychologique au travail, ainsi que la relation entre la justice distributive et la détresse psychologique au travail. Finalement, la conclusion de la thèse présente une synthèse des résultats et expose les limites et pistes de recherches futures. / The present doctoral thesis treats of the relation between perception of organizational justice, emission of misbehaviours at work, and individuals’ psychological health at work. In addition to developing and undertaking a validation process for a measuring scale of misbehaviours at work, the present thesis proposes that these behaviours may occupy either a protective or an explicative role in the relationship that unites the perception of organizational justice with individuals’ psychological health at work. Within the thesis, the first article lists scientific literature concerning the perception of organizational justice, the emission of misbehaviours at work, and individuals’ psychological health at work. This article also includes a revue of links that unite the variables presently at study. Following this review, two conceptual models about possible roles played by misbehaviours at work in the relationship between perception of organizational justice and individuals’ psychological health at work are developed. More precisely, these models are conceptualisation of the moderating and mediating roles of inadequate work behaviours. The second article’s goal is the development of a measuring scale for misbehaviours at work and testing its psychometric proprieties. In this context, exploratory and confirmatory statistical analyses were made. Also, in order to support the criterion value of the proposed tool, a correlation analysis was made with the criteria of adaptation. The results showed that certain psychometric values were validated. The third article empirically examines the conceptual models developed about the possible roles played by misbehaviours at work in the relationship between perception of organizational justice and individuals’ psychological health at work. Organisational justice perception was analysed under distributive, procedural, informational and interpersonal components. As for individuals’ psychological health at work, it was observed through the psychological well-being and distress elements. The different multiple hierarchical regression analyses helped observe the absence of a moderator role for misbehaviours at work. Using the Sobel test showed the presence of a mediator role for misbehaviours at work in the relationship between the interpersonal organizational justice component and well-being, as well as psychological distress at work. This same test highlighted the mediator role of misbehaviours at work in the relationship between the distributive component of organizational justice and the psychological distress at work of individuals. Finally, the conclusion of this thesis presents a synthesis of the results and highlights the limits and future research ideas.

Meaning in work : the development, implementation and evaluation of a logotherapy intervention in a higher education institutionVan der Walt, Corneli 11 1900 (has links)
Over the past five decades, universities across the globe have been subjected to powerful forces of change that have impacted their definition, governance and funding structures, and managerial practices. In South Africa, the reform process was amplified by the country’s apartheid legacy and the political and socio-economic realities. Consequently, the transformation has resulted in the corporatisation of universities and the re-engineering of the academic profession into a managed profession that brought about a changed work environment with less secure conditions of employment, more expectations and increased work pressure, with diminished autonomy.
The changed and changing South African higher education environment has had and continues to have its effects on academic employees’ well-being, health and morale. Limited research has investigated the sense of purpose and meaning and psychological health of academic employees. Moreover, there is an absence of empirical studies that have reported on the development and evaluation of a brief group-based meaning-centred intervention that focuses on both the sense of purpose and meaning, and psychological health of academic employees.
The primary aim of the study was to first explore the meaning and/or meaning frustration embedded in the academic employee experience, in order to develop and empirically assess a brief group-based meaning-centred intervention in a higher education setting. The intervention was articulated from a logotherapy perspective of Viktor Frankl’s system of psychotherapy.
An intervention mixed methods design, consisting of four interdependent phases, was used to pursue the aim of the study. The phase one qualitative single case study was used to explore and describe the sense of meaning and/or meaning frustration embedded in academic employees’ experiences. This was used as a means of developing and supporting the intervention that was implemented in the phase three quantitative quasi- experimental single-group pre/post test study. Phase two was thus an applied phase where the intentional mixing of the qualitative and quantitative phases took place. Likewise, phase four was an applied phase since it was used to draw conclusions based on the integration of the phase one findings and the phase three results.
The results of the quantitative study indicated that the majority of academic employees who participated in the study had a sense of definite purpose and meaning (MPIL-post = 114.59, SDPIL-post = 18.04) and psychological health, despite the changed and changing HE landscape. The main finding suggests that a logotherapy brief group-based intervention, with a strong cognitive restructuring component, may have a positive impact on the sense of purpose and meaning of academic employees, whilst reducing the presence of symptoms of depression, post traumatic stress, binge eating and panic. The experience of purpose and meaning in work, and adaptive psychological coping, was related to academic employees’ sense of making a difference in students’ development, the appreciation they have received from students, their freedom of choice, their view of work as a calling, the unique benefits of working in HE, meaning beyond the meaning in the moment (ultimate meaning) and making a difference in colleagues’ (staffs’) lives.
Llimitations in the study are noted and recommendations are made to formalise existential analysis as a research method of meaning informed organisational assessment. / Psychology / Ph. D. (Counselling Psychology)
