“…According to Bakker (2017), Mérida-López et al (2022) and Schaufeli et al (2002), work engagement is a state of mental satisfaction, interest, positivity and motivation that allows workers to achieve success in their work. Teachers can improve their work engagement by providing facilitators to help them get on with their work (Toll et al, 2016). The results of this study show that motivation, satisfaction and favorable social relations and environment are some facilitators of the generation of work engagement (Hardré et al, 2013;Hoigaard et al, 2012;Skaalvik & Skaalvik, 2016;Shoshani & Eldor, 2016;Van Wingerden & Poell, 2019;Zhang et al, 2021).…”

“…Despite this percentage of teachers and certain disagreements in understanding the construct of work engagement, OECD (2018) and Toll, Drefs & Lock(2016) defend that teachers can develop this mental state if they intervene in the barriers that prevent them from carrying out their work, providing facilitating elements such as motivation, satisfaction, social and family support, favourable social relations, etc. Work engagement of teachers is related to active participation in work-related activities, good results, favorable social relations, high levels of motivation, resilience, satisfaction and effort.…”

Work engagement is a state of mental motivation that allows workers to achieve success in the workplace. However, due to high work demands and exhaustion, teachers might find it difficult to engage in work. Teachers can develop work engagement if they intervene in the barriers that prevent them from doing their work by providing facilitators. The aim of this study was to describe teachers' perceptions of work engagement at different stages of education. A descriptive qualitative study was designed. Four focus groups were conducted with a total of 26 Spanish teachers. Three main themes and six sub-themes emerged from the analysis of the data: (1) Causes of the generation of work engagement: personal facilitators and facilitators of the environment; (2) Barriers to generating work engagement: individual and environmental; (3) Effects of work engagement: positive consequences and negative consequences. These findings indicate that there are several facilitators and barriers that promote and/or hinder the generation of work engagement in Spanish teachers. However, it should be noted that the study presents transferable results for other countries dealing with similar issues. In conclusion, training teachers in certain skills would improve their ability to solve complex situations and increase their levels of work engagement.

“…The creation of digital art reportedly offered people another option to access art and to express their emotions [29]. However, there were barriers to engaging in digital art compared with traditional artwork, such as a lack of digital inclusion [29]. Nonetheless, evidence on the creating of digital artwork by the family caregivers of people with significant chronic illnesses, including dementia, is limited.…”

Painting is a well-known method for alleviating stress, but it is uncertain whether family caregivers can use an electronic painting platform at home for this purpose. Aim. The aim in this study was to assess the feasibility and acceptability of having family caregivers of persons with dementia (FCPWD) draw electronic paintings using a mobile app, and to assess the preliminary effect of the intervention on their well-being. Methods. This was a two-phase feasibility and acceptability study, with qualitative interviews conducted in Phase 1 and qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey conducted in Phase 2. Caregiving burden, depressive symptoms, self-rated health, and social support were measured before and after the intervention. Participants were asked to draw electronic paintings at any time they liked, and to share the paintings with friends or relatives if they wished. Result. The recruitment rate in Phase 2 was 87.5% (28 out of 32), with 78.6% participants (22 out 28) completing all activities in 8 weeks. The FCPWD regarded the e-painting app as an appropriate channel for expressing their emotions. They found the layout of the app to be easy to use and were satisfied with it. A total of 116 pictures were produced. Log-in frequency was significantly correlated with the sharing of paintings with friends or relatives (r = 0.72, p < 0.001). Conclusion. FCPWD considered the e-painting mobile app to be a feasible and acceptable technology-based psychosocial platform. A further investigation with a larger sample in a full-scale randomized controlled trial is warranted.
