Does losing your job change your personality? Findings from a 16-year longitudinal study of Mexican-origin adults.
1,110 predominantly first-generation Mexican-origin adults, who reported on their employment status and Big Five personality traits up to eight times over 16 years. We explored the influence of both individual and spousal unemployment on four forms of personality trait stability and change: rank-order stability, mean-level changes, within-person trait stability, and profile stability. Job loss was associated with a wide range of mean-level person…
Regulatory Emotional Self-Efficacy in Managing Negative Emotions at Work: A Validation Study
In this article, we present three studies designed to investigate the psychometric properties of the Regulatory Emotional Self-efficacy Scale at Work (RESE-W). In Study 1 (N = 1735), we tested and confirmed a bifactorial structure comprised of one general and two specific dimensions across the six scale items. In Study 2 (N = 211), we investigated the relations of the RESE-W with emotional dynamics at work by estimating its associations with emot…
Development of a Culture-Common Formal Characteristics of Behavior – Temperament Markers Inventory (FCB-TMI-CC)
The goal was to create a brief temperament inventory grounded in the Regulative Theory of Temperament (FCB-TMI-CC), with a user-friendly, online applicability for studies in different cultures. As the regulative role of temperament is strongly revealed under meaningful stress, the study was planned within the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. To ensure high diversity in terms of culture, economic and environmental conditions, data from nine countrie…
Older LGBT+ Adults and Physical Activity: A Systematic Review of Qualitative and Quantitative Data
Personality (in)coherence and protective/vulnerability factors in the context of prolonged stress
Daily associations between global self‐esteem and self‐concept clarity and their relationships with subjective well‐being in a sample of adult workers
OBJECTIVES: The present pre-registered study examined the reciprocal day-to-day associations between global self-esteem and self-concept clarity and their incremental validity with respect to daily life satisfaction, positive affect, and negative affect. METHODS: We used intensive longitudinal data from 153 adult workers (45.1% women), over a period of 31 days. Data were analyzed using dynamic structural equation modeling. RESULTS: Results attest…
Longitudinal correlated changes of global and organization‐based self‐esteem at work
The role of different forms of self‐esteem (i.e., global vs. domain‐specific) at work and their longitudinal changes and associations have yet to be examined. Our aim is to analyze the pattern of longitudinal changes between global self‐esteem (GSE) and organization‐based self‐esteem (OBSE). We used three‐wave longitudinal data ( N = 1616) of newcomers at the beginning of their career. Results from multivariate latent growth curve models revealed…
Determinants of workers’ well-being during the Covid-19 outbreak: An exploratory study
Beliefs in Regulating Negative Emotions and Vagally Mediated Heart Rate Variability: Does Sex Make a Difference
OBJECTIVE: This ecological study explored the association between regulatory emotional self-efficacy beliefs in managing negative emotions (RESE-NE) and heart rate variability (HRV), a measure of parasympathetic modulation of the heart that has been positively associated with a better ability to flexibly adjust to a changing environment and regulate emotions. METHOD: To test these associations, we used data from 161 adults working in relational p…
Dynamics of Global and Organizational Self-Esteem at Work
Self-esteem represents one of the most important workers’ resources, and has been studied from two different perspectives conceiving self-esteem (1) as a global (i.e., global self-esteem, GSE), or (2) as a domain-specific construct (i.e., organization-based self-esteem, OBSE). To our knowledge, no study has addressed the dynamic relations between these two different self-esteem expressions and their concurrent value as useful work-related persona…
The validity of the higher‐order structure of effortful control as defined by inhibitory control, attention shifting, and focusing: A longitudinal and multi‐informant study
OBJECTIVE: Effortful control (EC) has been conceptualized as a higher-order construct defined by a class of self-regulatory mechanisms. However, the developmental higher-order structure of EC has seldom been investigated with a thorough psychometric analysis. To begin to fill this gap in the literature, data were obtained from parents and teachers of 185 children (age at T1: M = 9.43 y/o, SD = 1.17) every 2 years for 8 years. METHOD: We used a st…
Self‐esteem development during the transition to work: A 14‐year longitudinal study from adolescence to young adulthood
INTRODUCTION: Previous studies examined the trajectory of self-esteem during critical developmental periods and over the life-span. However, little is known about how self-esteem changes during the school-to-work transition. METHOD: We examined the effect of beginning a job for the first time on self-esteem development, using data from 368 adolescents assessed up to six times across a 14-year time span. Specifically, we analyzed the pattern of se…
Self-esteem Stability and Change at Home versus at Work: An Application of the Latent State-Trait Model for the Combination of Random and Fixed Situations (LST-RF)
Recent research has shown that even stable psychological constructs, like self-esteem, are not static entities. Accordingly, research on state-trait decomposition is growing, but few studies have been conducted on investigating potential differences across situations. In this contribution, we used a Latent State-Trait model for the combination of Random and Fixed situations (LST-RF) to investigate self-esteem state-trait decomposition at home ver…
Emotional distress in Catholic priests and religious sisters during Covid-19: The mediational role of trait positivity
The present study focused on the mediating role of positivity in the relationship between emotional stability, conscientiousness, with positive affect, negative affect, and anxiety, among priests and religious sisters during the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy. We examined the role of positivity as a basic disposition predisposing individuals to a positive mode of viewing reality for priests and religious sisters during the quarantine. We used data fr…
Within-individual relations of emotional, social, and work self-efficacy beliefs to organizational citizenship behaviors
Personality trait change at work: Associations with organizational socialization and identification
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates associations between Big Five personality trait change, organizational socialization, and organizational identification during a 3-year police officer training program (N = 416 police officer cadets). METHOD: Participants completed a questionnaire measuring the Big Five personality traits when they entered the training academy, and then, completed the same personality questionnaire, along with measures of organi…
