Torn between safeguarding economic stability and health
The employment–health dilemma is a theoretical framework to analyze the experiences of workers who face a combination of economic and health threats. It arises when workers in health‐threatening jobs have few attractive job prospects and feel trapped in the dilemma of accepting/keeping a health‐threatening job or quitting/rejecting that job and possibly incurring unemployment. This study provides a first qualitative exploration of this dilemma. A…
Far but close
As modern work is increasingly characterised by virtual collaboration, leaders have to coordinate teams across multiple work sites. One way to align dispersed team members towards collective goals is to strengthen their identification with the team. However, little is known about how to strengthen identification in virtual teams that do not share a physical environment. We conducted interviews based on the critical incident technique with 26 virt…
In a no‐win situation
Work and organizational psychology (WOP) research has to date mostly focused on people privileged to have the choice between several attractive job options and less on people who are restricted in their job choice (e.g., due to their qualification or personal contingencies) and have to choose from fewer and often less‐than‐optimal jobs. Often, the jobs available to the latter are characterized by precarious employment and hazardous working condit…
With a little help from my friends? Acculturation and mental health in Arabic-speaking refugee youth living with their families
Policies that provide refugee youth with access to language classes and social activities with peers do not only enable them to actively participate in a new society but may also have a positive effect on their mental health
Repelled at first sight? Expectations and intentions of job-seekers reading about AI selection in job advertisements
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in personnel selection to automate decision-making. Initial evidence points to negative effects of automating these procedures on applicant experiences. However, the effect of the prospect of automated procedures on job-seekers’ pre-process perceptions (e.g., organizational attractiveness) and intentions (to apply for the advertised job) is still unclear. We conducted three experiments ( Study 1 a…
How positive and negative contact experiences relate to identification and acculturation of persons with a migration background
Badea, Jetten, Iyer, and Er‐Rafiy proposed a model that specifies immigrants’ experienced rejection by majority and minority groups and social identification with these groups as predictors of their acculturation attitudes. The present research tested an extended version of this model by assessing (i) both positive and negative contact experiences with majority and minority groups, (ii) social identification with these groups and religious groups…
Identity Multiplicity, National Group Contact, and Acculturation
Persons with migration background (PMB) face the question of whether they can become full members of the receiving society, and at the same time maintain their ethnic group identity and culture. Alongside experiences of contact with the national group, this research examined the role of three identity‐related cognitions for PMB's acculturation attitudes: (1) perceived permeability and (2) perceived compatibility of national and ethnic identities,…
