The International Work Addiction Scale (Iwas): A screening tool for clinical and organizational applications validated in 85 cultures from six continents
A person‐centered perspective on employees' human resource management values and their implication for organizational commitment
Human resource management (HRM) practices and their associations with employees' job attitudes and behaviors are well‐established, although the psychological mechanisms underlying these associations remain unclear. Based on the ability‐motivation‐opportunity framework, we propose that employees' HRM values play a key role in these associations. Specifically, we propose that employees' perceptions of the HRM practices present in their organization…
How tyrannical leadership relates to workplace bullying and turnover intention over time: The role of coworker support
The present study provides valuable insight into the social contextual determinants of bullying behaviors and highlights the destructive nature of tyrannical leadership. Furthermore, this study illustrates the importance of fostering supportive behaviors between colleagues, as this important social resource can play a key role in reducing turnover intention over time
Longitudinal profiles of work-family interface: Their individual and organizational predictors, personal and work outcomes, and implications for onsite and remote workers
In whom college teachers trust? On the role of specific trust referents and basic psychological needs in optimal functioning at work
Self-determination trajectories at work: A growth mixture analysis
Community‐based adaptation research in the Canadian Arctic
Community‐based adaptation ( CBA ) has emerged over the last decade as an approach to empowering communities to plan for and cope with the impacts of climate change. While such approaches have been widely advocated, few have critically examined the tensions and challenges that CBA brings. Responding to this gap, this article critically examines the use of CBA approaches with Inuit communities in Canada. We suggest that CBA holds significant promi…
Committed, inspiring, and healthy teachers: How do school environment and motivational factors facilitate optimal functioning at career start
This study aimed to deepen the understanding of the role of work motivation in teachers at career start. Participants were 589 beginning French-Canadian teachers working in public elementary and high schools. In addition to situating the forms of motivation (autonomous versus controlled) that drive teachers in the three first years of their career, the results provide support for a model explaining the motivational pathways by which school enviro…
How do job characteristics contribute to burnout? Exploring the distinct mediating roles of perceived autonomy, competence, and relatedness
This study aimed to better understand the psychological mechanisms, referred to in the job demands–resources model as the energetic and motivational processes, that can explain relationships between job demands (role overload and ambiguity), job resources (job control and social support), and burnout (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment). Drawing on self-determination theory, we examined whether psychological reso…
Workplace psychological harassment in Canadian nurses: A descriptive study
This descriptive study investigated workplace psychological harassment in a sample of 1179 Canadian nurses. Two complementary types of assessment were used: exposure to negative behaviors and perceived victimization. Results revealed that exposure to negative behaviors was associated with certain sociodemographic variables (i.e. job status and the amount of overtime performed weekly), lower psychological health, and poorer functioning at work. Al…
Predicting intraindividual changes in teacher burnout: The role of perceived school environment and motivational factors
Effects of gender, age, and diabetes duration on dietary self-care in adolescents with type 1 diabetes: A Self-Determination Theory perspective
This study tests a model derived from Self-Determination Theory (SDT) (Deci and Ryan, 2000) to explain the mechanisms by which non-modifiable factors influence dietary self-care in adolescents with type 1 diabetes ( n = 289). SEM analyses adjusted for HbA1c levels revealed that longer diabetes duration and female gender were indicative of poorer dietary self-care. This effect was mediated by contextual and motivational factors as posited by SDT. …
Revisiting the Factorial Validity of the Revised Ucla Loneliness Scale: A Test of Competing Models in a Sample of Teachers
Over the years, various studies addressing different populations have consistently raised concerns about the unidimensionality of the Revised UCLA Loneliness Scale. In the present study, the factorial structure of the scale was examined by comparing it to alternative models. In a sample of 1,157 French Canadian teachers, results of confirmatory factor analysis support a three-factor model solution. Support for the invariance of this model across …
When does quality of relationships with coworkers predict burnout over time? The moderating role of work motivation
The present prospective study examines the interplay between the quality of relationships with coworkers and work motivation in predicting burnout. Considering self‐determined motivation at work as a potential moderator, we investigated whether relationships with coworkers are equally important to all employees in preventing burnout. A total of 533 college employees participated in this study. Data were collected at two time points, two years apa…
In Our Own Voice: The Impact of Feminism on Canadian Psychology
Interviews with four feminist psychologists are used to explore the impact of feminism on psychology in Canada. Using a thematic analysis, three levels of impact - individual, disciplinary and institutional - are derived and discussed with specific examples from the Canadian context. We highlight opportunities and obstacles to feminist influence, and make tentative suggestions for strengthening feminism’s current and future presence in Canadian p…

Contemporary debates in critical psychology: Dialectics and syntheses
Although critical psychology has been gaining momentum in recent years, it is by no means a monolithic entity. In order to understand the variety of strands within critical psychology, we conducted a formative evaluation of the field. The intention of the study was to provide critical psychologists with an opportunity to reflect on the development of the subdiscipline. We were interested in determining the state of critical psychology as a growin…
