Professional factors influencing internal migration
Migration is often viewed through the lens of international movement, yet internal migration within countries represents a significant aspect of human movements. This paper presents the results of a systematic review examining internal migration dynamics, specifically concentrating on studies that explore the professional determinants of internal migration, potentially alongside other influencing factors. The review draws upon data from SCOPUS, W…
Group Interpersonal Psychotherapy in Patients with Treatment Resistant Depression
Depressive disorders are a worldwide leading cause of health-related burden, and a subgroup of depression patients fail to respond to available psychopharmacological treatments, a condition called Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD). While evidence suggests that both traditional and group (IPT-G) Interpersonal Psychotherapy interventions are efficient treatments for depression, few studies have evaluated the effect of IPT on TRD. Qualitatively a…
The influence of organizational compassion on Job Crafting
This study aimed to analyse the relationship between the perception of compassion at work (consciousness, empathy, evaluation, response type) and compassionate “actions and organizational characteristics” on job crafting (increasing structural job resources, increasing social job resources, increasing challenging job demands, decreasing hindering job demands). The study collected quantitative data from 231 professionals from different economic se…
Why Do People Work? An Empirical Test of Hybrid Work Orientations
The present study analyzed whether one's work orientation can be organized into work orientation profiles beyond the three pure orientations of job, career, and calling. We tested the existence of these hybrid work orientations in a sample of 959 adults aged from 18 to 71 years old (M = 40.61, SD = 9.54). A cluster analysis showed that the best result consisted of four profiles: "Career-Calling", "Career-Job", "Pure Job", and "Indifference". Theo…
Career profiles
The rapid development of societies and the transformation of labour markets and organizationsrequires more dynamic careers nowadays. Thus, based on the career profiles described by Carson,Carson, Phillips and Roe (1996) and the association of career entrenchment and career satisfaction,we identified in this study, which career profiles currently exist. The cross-reference of data, withorganizational commitment, career commitment and turnover inte…
Selfless and strategic, interpersonal and institutional
We asked 32 professionals what organizational compassion is to them. Analysis of the responses revealed four conflicting, if not paradoxical, dimensions. With insight from Habermas’ theory of ‘communicative action’, we paired these dimensions as two lifeworld/system couples: (1) selfless compassion (lifeworld) and strategic compassion (system), as well as (2) interpersonal compassion (lifeworld) and institutional compassion (system). While the co…
The Relation Between Family-Supportive Work Environment and Work–Family Conflict
This study tested the moderation effect that leader support had on the relation between a family-supportive work environment (FSWE) and work–family conflict (WFC) in the Portuguese Navy. Data were collected through the application of a questionnaire to 260 career Navy junior and senior officers. Results indicated that a positive relation existed between the FSWE and WFC, being so that more FSWE related to more WFC. When bringing leader’s support …
Leading by fear and by love
This study adopts a historical perspective analysis to identify the thought on leadership in the eighteenth-century Portugal. The paper empirically analyses a letter sent from the Portuguese eighteenth-century Minister Marquis of Pombal to the Governor of Maranhão (currently Brazil), about ‘the art of good leadership’. A grounded theory analysis to the letter content found evidence that the enlightened despotism of the Marquis of Pombal can be in…
Resposta Coletiva Compassiva
A capacidade coletiva compassiva tem claras implicações no desempenho e no bem-estar dos indivíduos no contexto organizacional (Lilius, Worline, Maitlis, Kanov, Dutton, & Frost, 2008). O presente estudo tem como objetivo descrever a forma como o efeito combinado de práticas e características de flexibilização de estrutura organizacional contribuem para o aumento de respostas coletivas compassivas em organizações com missão pró-social, quando comp…
Comportamento Organizacional Positivo
Na última década tem vindo a ganhar proeminência o movimento dos estudos organizacionais positivos. É uma corrente de investigação orientada para melhorar as organizações usando as respetivas forças – em vez de colmatar as suas falhas. Através desta lente positiva, seguimos, neste artigo, quatro níveis de análise: (1) consideramos o capital psicológico como atributo de indivíduos positivos; (2)discutimos as características das interações positiva…
Doing compassion or doing discipline? Power relations and the Magdalene Laundries
We address the Magdalene Laundries. On the one hand this institution was constituted as a compassionate response to managing troubled young women; on the other hand it was seen as a disciplinary apparatus imposing total institutional life on its inmates. The antinomy of views about the institution is evident in the analysis we make of 116 comments by 66 commenters on an online newspaper article about the Magdalene Laundries. We analyse these comm…

Weblog-Technology as a Trigger to Elicit Passion for Knowledge
The practice of Weblogging as a new social and technological phenomenon in society and business is gaining a growing number of supporters. In short, a Weblog is a website where individual thoughts are publicly displayed in the form of a diary. In this paper, we seek to illustrate the impact of Weblog technology on people's passion for knowledge. We start from the assumption that successful knowledge management requires the engagement of people in…
