Work-family practices and work-family relationship
Work-family practices are defined as instruments which are used to facilitate reconciliation between work and family. However, research regarding the role of boundary management in shaping such interconnection is still needed. Based on border theory, this study aims to explore boundary control and work-family segmentation enactment as mechanisms to explain the relationship between work-family practices and work-family relationship (conflict and e…
Unravelling Time in Higher Education
The present study aims to understand the influence of time spent in higher education on academic burnout and engagement, exploring the mediating role of psychological capital (PsyCap). To this end, a data analysis was conducted on a sample of 4242 Portuguese undergraduate students. The results support a significant and negative relationship between time spent in higher education and PsyCap, a significant negative relationship between PsyCap and a…
Boundary management preferences from a gender and cross-cultural perspective
Supervisor Support and Work-Family Practices
In recent decades, in response to changes in work dynamics, demographics, and technological advancements, organizations have sought to implement practices that facilitate transitions between work and family—so-called work-family practices. Previous research has focused on identifying antecedents for a more positive work-family relationship, employees’ well-being, and positive organizational outcomes. Nevertheless, the development of this research…
Beyond Work
During the COVID-19 pandemic, telework emerged as a pivotal strategy to mitigate the spread of the virus. However, telework's feasibility was contingent on job roles. This gave rise to two distinct groups: teleworkers and on-site workers. However, the impacts of social support and well-being extended to both groups. This study investigated the link between organisational and supervisory family support and subjective well-being, examining work eng…
Boundary violations and university teachers’ well-being during mandatory telework
By focusing on boundary violations in the context of mandatory telework, the study sheds light on the impact of blurred boundaries between work and personal life. This contributes both literature on work-life balance and literature recovery. Moreover, it helps to understand a crisis setting of remote work. Further, the study's findings regarding gender differences highlight how men and women may experience and cope with boundary violations differ…
Daily exhaustion and engagement in Portuguese health science students
In this study, a quantitative diary design was used to examine within-person relationships among daily negative events, emotional intelligence facets, and levels of academic exhaustion and engagement. The research was conducted with a sample of 63 Portuguese health science students (48 females and Mage = 22.3 years) from medicine (n = 33) and psychology (n = 30) degrees who completed a daily survey for 2 weeks (550 diary entries). The results sho…
Emotional Intelligence and Teachers’ Work Engagement
A growing number of studies have tested the relationship between personal resources (e.g. emotional intelligence) and indicators of occupational well-being, including work engagement. However, few have examined health-related factors moderating or mediating the pathway from emotional intelligence to work engagement. A better knowledge of this area would contribute substantially to the design of effective intervention strategies. The present study…
Is Stress in Contact Centers Inevitable
It is broadly acknowledged that contact center employees are subject to high levels of stress. In this profession, there is a distinction between back-office and front-office employees. In addition, employees may perform duties in various companies with different characteristics (i.e., human resources practices, job characteristics, social support, work-personal life relationship, among others). Thus, this study focuses on the analysis of the con…
Positive Psychology in Context of Peacekeeping Militaries
Based on the work-family enrichment theory, this study analyzes the contribution of work-family and family-work enrichment to explain the military's well-being during a peacekeeping mission. The data used were collected in a sample of 306 Brazilian soldiers, who were married and/or had children, during the phase named "employment of troops" (i.e., when peacekeepers had been in the Haitian territory and, as a result, away from their families, for …

A Person-Centered Approach to the Job Demands–Control Model
This study used a cross-sectional design and a person-centered approach in order to test the addictive and interactive strain hypotheses of Job Demands-Control Model to explain burnout. A large sample ( n = 6357) of Portuguese workers (nurses, bank employees, retail traders, and contact center agents) was used. Through latent profile analysis (LPA), first latent profiles of demands and control were identified and then it was examined how these pr…
Job Demands-Control model and employees' mental health
This paper has two goals: examine the effect of job characteristics proposed in the Job Demands-Control (JDC) model on work-family conflict (WFC) and the effect of this variable on employees' mental health; examine the mediate role of WFC between these job characteristics and employees' mental health. The hypotheses, using structural equation modeling, were tested with cross-lagged analyses based on two waves over a 6-months period in a sample of…
A exposição Plasticidade - Uma História dos Plásticos em Portugal
As part of the project “O Triunfo da Baquelite – Contributos para uma História dos Plásticos em Portugal” (2016-2019), the exhibition Plasticidade – Uma História dos Plásticos em Portugal (2019-2021) was organized on the history of plastic materials, in partnership with the Leiria Museum. The exhibition highlighted the importance of plastics, its relationship with the history of industry, design, consumption and mentalities, and science and techn…
Be well at work, be well outside work
University workers have been marginalized in efforts to establish well-being at work and well-being outside the workplace. To date, no studies analyzing well-being have distinguished between teaching and research academic staff (TRAS) from the service and administrative staff (SAS). The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the promotion of the well-being of university workers. Data were collected from a representative sample of workers (N = …
An unusual coronoid fracture in a fragment of ulna recovered from the Prehistoric site of Buraca da Moira Rock Shelter (Boa Vista, Leiria)
In 2015, several disarticulated human skeletal remains were identified in the top layers of the prehistoric site of Buraca da Moira Rock Shelter (Boa Vista, Leiria), during the archaeological excavation carried out under the scope of the EcoPLis — Human Occupations in the Pleistocene Ecotones of the River Lis project. The recovery of chert, constiquartz and quartzite blanks, a schist plate, as well as adornments in bone and shell indicates a Late…
Work-Family Conflict and Enrichment Mediates the Relationship Between Job Characteristics and Well-Being at Work With Portuguese Marine Corps
This study of 175 military employees working in three units of the Portuguese Marine Corps tested the mediated effect of work-family conflict and enrichment on the relationship between job characteristics and well-being at work (i.e., burnout; engagement). Using job demands, job autonomy, and supervisor support as job characteristics, and consistent with the assumptions of acclaimed work well-being models (i.e., job demands-control and support, j…
