Predicting incivility behaviours in the public sector
Linking Wage to Well-Being
Humanitarian Work Psychology (HWP) has challenged historical claims that wage and wellbeing are barely connected. Contradicting SDGs 1, 3, 8, and 10, earlier research prioritized middle-class samples (for whom wage was less salient) and assumed linearity (instead of actually curvilinear poverty traps). Nonetheless, even in HWP research, the wage–wellbeing connection has remained modest. Has HWP overlooked a crucial, proximal mediator between wage…
Indigenous employees’ experiences of work
Although scholarly interest in minority employees has grown in recent years, Indigenous Peoples’ experiences of work still largely appear on the margins of management and organizational scholarship. For Indigenous employees, the interplay of colonialism and features of Indigenous cultures and communities can lead to distinct work experiences. We thus explore the question of how being Indigenous shapes life at work by reviewing findings from 127 e…
Development of a culturally informed tool to assess chronic pain for Māori
Chronic pain is one of the most common long-term conditions in Aotearoa (New Zealand), and there is a higher prevalence and greater impact of pain for Māori (Indigenous People of New Zealand). Māori tend to have a more holistic interpretation of pain compared with Western views; therefore, current assessments may not capture the full meaning and impact of pain for Māori. This study developed a holistic assessment tool for chronic pain in collabor…
Developing, Validating, and Applying a Measure of Human Quality Treatment
Human Quality Treatment (HQT) is a theoretical approach expressing different ways of dealing with employees within an organization and is embedded in humanistic management tenants of dignity, care, and personal development, seeking to produce morally excellent employees. We build on the theoretical exposition and present a measure of HQT-Scale across several studies including cross-culturally to enhance confidence in our results. Our first study …
How scientists interpret and address funding criteria
Scientists and funding bodies are interdependent actors involved in an ongoing two-way signalling interaction; however, we lack insight on the social mechanisms underpinning this interaction. To address this issue, we examine how successfully funded scientists interpret and address criteria set by the funding body to maximise their chances of funding success. We also consider the possible adverse side effects that can arise from scientists’ compe…
The Role of Religiosity in Ethical Decision-Making
He aronga takirua
Can cultural identity be a disadvantage for indigenous employees? Can it lead to critical issues around workload and pressures? This article explores the role of cultural identity for Māori, the indigenous people of Aotearoa/New Zealand, and the findings are telling. We target Māori scientists, given their limited number but growing legislated sector demands around cultural engagement. We conducted several studies. Study one (12 interviews) ident…
A post-lockdown study of burnout risk amongst New Zealand essential workers
Indigenous Peoples’ Perspectives and Wellbeing in Organizational Life
Technological disruption and employment
A Cross-National Study on the Antecedents of Work-Life Balance from the Fit and Balance Perspective
Smart Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Algorithms (STARA)
Futurists predict that a third of jobs that exist today could be taken by Smart Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Algorithms (STARA) by 2025. However, very little is known about how employees perceive these technological advancements in regards to their own jobs and careers, and how they are preparing for these potential changes. A new measure (STARA awareness) was created for this study that captures the extent to which employee…
How can wages sustain a living? By getting ahead of the curve
Electrical fingerprint of the amygdala guides neurofeedback training for stress resilience
Real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rt-fMRI) has revived the translational perspective of neurofeedback (NF) 1 . Particularly for stress management, targeting deeply located limbic areas involved in stress processing 2 has paved new paths for brain-guided interventions. However, the high cost and immobility of fMRI constitute a challenging drawback for the scalability (accessibility and cost-effectiveness) of the approach, particular…
Māori leaders’ well-being
This research draws on interviews with 18 Māori leaders from various leadership positions within business, community, political and marae organisations, to garner an understanding of how their leadership roles interact with their own well-being. Analysis of interviews revealed that cross-cultural developments in self-determination theory could be gained by incorporating Māori tikanga and values into a model of well-being for Māori leaders. Largel…
Outcomes of work–life balance on job satisfaction, life satisfaction and mental health
Collectivism, Cultural Identity and Employee Mental Health
An Indigenous Model of Career Satisfaction
An international perspective on work–family
This special issue resulted from the Community,Work, and Family 2nd Conference in Lisbon, Portugal (12_14 April 2007). It builds on the premise that the field of work-family conflict has grown to be well recognized and accepted since the seminal article on work-family conflict (Greenhaus & Beutell, 1985) was published over two decades ago. With this growing popularity has come increased attention and some authors have noted that work-family confl…
