There is a growing evidence that stress affects cognitive and emotional processes underling decision making. However, according some authors, subclinical personality traits of the participants must be also considered in this relation between stress and moral decision. Our study examines whether stress affects moral decision-making according two different subclinical personalities. Forty undergraduate volunteers were previously distributed according their personality traits (Machiavellian; Narcissism and Normal) and randomly assigned to both conditions (stress vs. control). The stress induction was assessed with a self-reported questionnaire and with a measurement of heart rate. All participants performed a moral decision-making task in which every day moral dilemmas were described. The main results suggest that stress group made less utilitarian choices when compared to control group. Although machiavellian and narcissistic participants made more utilitarian decisions; the interaction between stress, personality and moral judgment did not reach significance.   We conclude that stress induction predisposed participants to less utilitarian responses when faced to personal and impersonal moral dilemmas. We also suggested that subclinical personality (particularly narcissism) seems to be less permeable to stress; revealing the same moral utilitarian pattern in both experimental conditions.

(1) Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between IMO and burnout while assessing the contribution of job demands and resources on increasing internal orientation and worker well-being and, consequently, the levels of perceived performance; (2) Methods: Data were collected between April and December 2021 by completing an online questionnaire, developed in the Google Forms platform. The following descriptive statistics were analyzed: measures of central tendency (mean), dispersion (standard deviation), minimum value and maximum value. Next, Pearson's correlation coefficient was calculated to analyze the relationship between the variables under study.; (3) Results: The results showed the mediating effect of IMO between performance feedback and perceived performance, while burnout mediates the relationship between emotional and technology demands and perceived performance. (4) Conclusions: These conclusions demonstrate that constructive feedback might help a more efficient performance through better internal communication and the positive effects of technology demands could be the result of the interaction between personal and organizational resources.
