Virtual reality-based mindfulness interventions on employees' well-being within organizational contexts
BACKGROUND: Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) promote well-being by reducing stress and improving emotional regulation. Virtual reality (VR) has been shown to enhance workforce wellness interventions through immersive environments. However, the combined use of VR and MBIs in organizational settings remains underexplored, and further research is needed to clarify their potential to improve well-being. METHODS: This scoping review aimed to ide…
Translation, Adaptation, and Validation in Portuguese of an Acceptance Scale for Human–Robot Interaction in an Industrial Context
Industry 4.0, characterized by the integration of advanced technologies across various industrial domains, is now evolving into Industry 5.0, which emphasizes the human perspective, resilience, and sustainability. In this context, the study of human behavior and attitudes towards human–robot interaction (HRI) is crucial for understanding the acceptance of this emerging technology, which, in turn, can drive the development of more well‐designed in…
Enhancing Cobot Design Through User Experience Goals
The use of collaborative robots in industries is growing rapidly. To ensure the successful implementation of these devices, it is essential to consider the user experience (UX) during their design process. This study is aimed at testing the UX goals that emerge when users interact with a collaborative robot during the programming and collaborating phases. A framework on UX goals will be tested, in the geographical context of Portugal. For that, a…
Exploring the Relationship between Decision-Making Styles and Emotion Regulation
In public security policing, where pressure is constant, effective decision-making and emotion regulation are critical, especially for leaders. These processes significantly impact upon work results, performance, officials’ health, employee well-being, and the organizational environment. This study aims to broaden the understanding of decision-making styles and emotion-regulation strategies used by police officials in the Portuguese Public Securi…
Effects of Work–Family Conflict and Facilitation Profiles on Work Engagement
Achieving the balance between work and family life needs a holistic viewpoint on how these two aspects interact. It poses a significant challenge due to its impact on individuals, organizations, and society. Research suggests that employees engaged in both spheres tend to exhibit more favorable work attitudes, and experience improved health and wellbeing. In this study, we examined the interplay between work–family dynamics and work engagement am…
Emotional labour demands and work engagement in Portuguese police officers
Grounded in the Emotional Labour Theory, we aim to study the relationship between emotional demands (the expression of positive emotions and suppression of negative emotions) and work engagement in a sample of Portuguese police officers. We intend to explore the possible effects of these emotional demands on work engagement and ways of preventing and/or mitigating its impact. When analysing the studies conducted in the Portuguese police context, …
A Trust Scale for Human-Robot Interaction
Recently there has been an increasing demand for technologies (automated and intelligent machines) that brings benefits to organizations and society. Similar to the widespread use of personal computers in the past, today’s needs are towards facilitating human-machine technology appropriation, especially in highly risky and regulated industries like robotics, manufacturing, automation, military, finance, or healthcare. In this context, trust can b…
Relaciones laborales para el futuro
El envejecimiento de la fuerza de trabajo traduce una revisión urgente en la RRHH. Así, deben adoptarse mecanismos para retener a los trabajadores séniores. Esta investigación desea comprender la influencia de las prácticas de RRHH, adecuadas para ellos, en su decisión de permanecer activos en el mercado de trabajo. Para eso, se realizó un estudio exploratorio a partir de un cuestionario dirigido a la población activa portuguesa, respondido por 4…
