Death anxiety and work passion
Family and Work
The way individuals conceptualize and value work and family plays a crucial role in shaping identity and guiding personal and professional priorities. This descriptive-correlational and cross-cultural study aimed to analyze the centrality attributed to work and family, as well as to explore the social representations associated with these two domains. Samples were collected from Canada ( n = 77), India ( n = 201), Oman ( n = 175), Portugal ( n = …
Ambivalent Sexism and Neosexism
Gender-based affirmative action (GAA) in the workplace, despite targeting gender discrimination, elicits negative reactions. Few studies have explored socio-cognitive factors sustaining critics towards GAA. In this study we aim to fill the gap, asserting that individuals can simultaneously hold neosexist beliefs and positive attitudes towards GAA, forming an attitudinal combination that perpetuates workplace gender inequality. We argue that ambiv…
Measurement invariance and country difference in death anxiety
Death is something inevitable and common to all human beings. However, cultures vary in how they define and manage living with the inevitability of death and what happens when a person dies. Among the possible responses to this inescapable reality, there is death anxiety. Several instruments have proliferated in the literature to assess death anxiety. Among them, stands out the Scale of Death Anxiety (SDA) which contemplates somatic, cognitive, e…
The Effect of Death Anxiety on Work Passion
Fear of death is an emotional manifestation of the instinct for self-preservation. Any threat to our existence induces an anxiety response. Death anxiety can trigger obsessive-compulsive behaviours, such as an obsessive passion for work. Using a sample of 314 participants (68.2% female), with a mean age of 38.97 years (SD = 10.36), this study sought to observe the predictive effect of death anxiety on work passion, as well as the moderating effec…
Flourishing, Cinematic Self, and Sense of Self as Predictors of Death Anxiety
This research delved into the intricate landscape of death anxiety, a profound psychological phenomenon that deeply influences individuals' perceptions and responses to mortality. Through a meticulous examination of key psychological factors - flourishing, cinematic self, and sense of self - we aimed to unravel the complexities surrounding this existential concern. With a diverse sample of 327 Portuguese participants, our study sheds light on the…
The Effect of Multicultural Attitudes and Perceived Intergroup Threat on Attitudes Towards Immigrants in Portugal
Supported by the Intergroup Threat Theory (ITT), this study analyzes the effect of multicultural ideology on attitudes towards immigrants mediated by realistic, symbolic, and zero-sum threats. With a sample of Portuguese participants ( N = 404)), polynomial regression analysis with response surface methodology was used to test the effects of multicultural attitude (MA) and perceived intergroup threat (PIT) on attitudes towards immigrants (ATI). T…
Effects of work-family and family-work conflict and guilt on job and life satisfaction
The boundary between work and family life is now almost invisible, making the search for a balance between both spheres a dilemma and challenge. These concerns have led to a growing increase in studies on work-family and family-work conflict, their predictors, and their effects. This study aims to: 1) observe the predictive effect of work-family conflict (WFC) and family-work conflict (FWC) on work-family guilt (WFG) and family-work guilt (FWG), …
Are We Getting Less Sexist? A Ten-Year Gap Comparison Analysis of Sexism in a Portuguese Sample
Widely and slowly, discrimination against women based upon gender has become socially unacceptable. However, less is known about how sexist beliefs have progressed in the last years and if we are responding to this social antagonizing of a sexist discourse. Our goal was to verify the existence of differences in ambivalent sexism and neosexism over a ten-year gap in a Portuguese adult sample and to assess possible modifications in the relationship…
Intercultural Communication Competence Scale
This article explores the psychometric validation of an Intercultural Communication Competence (ICC) scale. Three studies were performed: (1) psychometric evidence pertaining to the scale’s reliability and factor structure and an analysis of the measurement invariance; (2) assessment of convergent and predictive validity; and (3) analyzes the association between ICC and affective and cognitive dimensions of cultural empathy. A three-factor model …
Emotional Recognition and Empathy both in Deaf and Blind Adults
Studies addressing the recognition of emotions in blind or deaf participants have been carried out only with children and adolescents. Due to these age limits, such studies do not clarify the long-term effects of vision and hearing disabilities on emotion recognition in adults. We assessed the ability to recognize basic emotions in 15 deaf adults (aged 32.4 ± 8.1 yrs) and in 15 blind adults (48.3 ± 10.5 yrs). Auditory and visual stimuli expressin…
The Relationship Between Multicultural Competencies and Intercultural Contact
The everyday contact with people from different nationalities is nowadays a reality. Cultural Intelligence and Multicultural Personality are individual competencies that are becoming important to deal with this reality. In this study, with 313 Portuguese participants, of both genders, with different types of intercultural contact, our purpose is to observe the effect of the intercultural contact on cultural intelligence and multicultural personal…
Portuguese Mothers and Fathers Share Similar Levels of Work-Family Guilt According to a Newly Validated Measure
Psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the Relational Interdependent Self -Construal scale
Relational interdependent self-construal (RISC) can be described as the degree to which the individuals define themselves in terms of their intimate relationships. Due to the significance that this construct and its associated measurement, the RISC scale, have in individual and social processes, we conducted two studies in order to validate the scale for the Portuguese population. The 11 item one-dimensional RISC scale was translated into Portugu…
Adaptation of the Domestic Violence Myth Acceptance Scale to Portuguese and Tests of Its Convergent, Divergent, and Predictive Validities
The Domestic Violence Myth Acceptance Scale was adapted to Portuguese (PDVMAS). The PDVMAS displayed reasonable fit indices (Study 1); was positively correlated with right-wing authoritarianism, social dominance orientation, belief in a just world (Study 2), and ambivalent sexism (Study 3); and negatively correlated with empathetic tendencies (Study 4). PDVMAS significantly predicted victim blame and aggressor exoneration in scenarios of coercion…

Evidências métricas da adaptação da escala de inteligência cultural numa amostra portuguesa
Este estudo teve como principal objetivo a validação da Cultural Intelligence Scale (CQS) para a população portuguesa. A inteligência cultural é uma competência crucial na adaptação a ambientes multiculturais. A escala multidimensional de inteligência cultural é composta por 20 itens agrupados em quatro dimensões e permite avaliar as características individuais que predispõem um melhor desempenho em ambientes culturais não familiares. Com uma amo…
Empowering Employees
The aim of this study was to adapt and translate into Portuguese the Conditions for Work Effectiveness Questionnaire (CWEQ-II) (Laschinger, Finegan, Shamian, & Wilk, 2004). A process of translation and reverse-translation was applied to the questionnaire's items, whose psychometric properties were examined using a sample of 282 Portuguese university employees, teachers and services staff. The data were subjected to confirmatory factor analysis, i…
Imigrantes E Sociedade De Acolhimento
A imigração e o seu impacto nas sociedades são um dos maiores desafios sociais do século XXI. Tanto a população imigrante como a população de acolhimento, optam por diferentes estratégias de aculturação. Com o objetivo de analisar as perceções de imigrantes e sociedade de acolhimento, face a questões como a aculturação, a discriminação, a ameaça, a integração ou as barreiras linguísticas em Portugal, desenvolvemos um estudo qualitativo. Foram rea…
Escalas de medição do Quociente de Empatia/Sistematização
A teoria da empatia - sistematização, desenvolvida por Baron?Cohen (2002), assume a existência de dois principais tipos cognitivos, um mais característico do género feminino (com maior capacidade para empatizar) e outro mais característico do género masculino (com maior capacidade para sistematizar). Para avaliar estes conceitos, Baron?Cohen e os seus colegas (2003) desenvolveram as escalas do Quociente de Empatia (QE) e do Quociente de Sistemati…
