The state of the psychological contract and its relation to employees' psychological health

The present paper explores the role of the state of the psychological contract in predicting psychological health outcomes in a sample of 385 employees from different Spanish companies. Results indicate that the state of the psychological contract significantly predicts life satisfaction, work-family conflict and well-being beyond the predictive capacity of the content of the psychological contract. In addition, trust and fairness, two of the dimensions of the state of the psychological contract, jointly contribute to explaining these psychological health variables, adding value to the predictive role of fulfilment of the psychological contract. These results lend support to the approach proposed by Guest and colleagues.El presente trabajo estudia el papel del estado del contrato psicológico para predecir resultados de salud psicológica en una muestra de 385 empleados de distintas empresas españolas. Los resultados indican que el estado del contrato psicológico predice la satisfacción con la vida, el conflicto trabajo-familia y el bienestar psicológico más allá de la predicción alcanzada por el propio contenido del contrato psicológico, y que la confianza y la justicia, dos de las dimensiones del estado del contrato psicológico, consideradas conjuntamente contribuyen a explicar dichas variables añadiendo valor al rol que como predictor desempeña el cumplimiento del contrato. Estos resultados suponen un apoyo a los planteamientos de Guest y colaboradores

Work related stress and well-being: the roles of direct action coping and palliative coping

The purpose of the present study is to analyze the roles of direct action coping and palliative coping in the relationship between work stressors and psychological well-being, as well as their possible interactions, in a sample of 464 bank employees. Hierarchical regression analyses showed main effects of direct action coping on well-being. Palliative coping predicts higher levels of psychological distress. Contrary to what was expected, the interactions between work stressors and direct action coping were not significant. Palliative coping interacted with work stressors when predicting psychosomatic complaints. The interaction between the two types of coping was significant on psychosomatic complaints and psychological distress, but not on job satisfaction. The paper discusses theoretical and practical implications of these results, in order to design intervention strategies to prevent and manage job stress

Estresores de puesto, de rol y de carrera y bienestar psicológico: el papel del afrontamiento de acción directa y paliativo

El presente estudio pretende analizar el papel del afrontamiento de acción directa y paliativo en la relación entre estresores laborales (estresor de puesto , de rol y de carrera) y bienestar psicológico, asi como las posibles interacciones entre estos dos tipos de afrontamiento, en una muestra de 464 empleados de empleados de organizaciones financieras españolas. Los análisis de regresiones jerárquicas muestran que el afrontamiento de acción directa predice el bienestar. Las interacciones entre los estresores de puesto y de rol, y el afrontamiento de acción directa predice la satisfacción laboral. Las interacciones entre los estresores y el afrontamiento paliativo predicen las quejas psicosomaticas. Por último, la interacción de los dos tipos de afrontamiento predice las quejas psicosomáticas y sin embargo no predice la satisfaccion laboral. Se discuten las implicaciones teóricas y prácticas de los resultados para las estrategias de intervención en el control del estres laboral.The purpose of the present study is to analyze the roles of direct action coping and palliative coping in the relationship between work stressors and psychological well-being, as well as their possible interactions, in a sample of 464 Spanish bank employees.

Team climate, climate strength and team performance: a longitudinal study

We tested the hypothesis that the relationship between team climate and team performance is moderated by climate strength. The study sample was composed of 155 bank branches, and a two-wave panel design was implemented. We measured four team climate facets (support, innovation, goal achievement and enabling formalization). We obtained two subjective indicators of team performance (ratings provided by team members and by team managers) and a financial indicator of team performance. Seven out of the 12 interaction effects tested were statistically significant and showed the expected sign. When financial team performance was the criterion, only the interaction term was significant. This suggests that only strong climates are related to financial team performance over time
