This non-experimental quantitative study found a best-fit structural model of professionalism among 400 Lupong Tagapamayapa [LP] (Pacification) members in the barangays of Panabo City. Statistical tools used in analyzing data were the weighted mean, Pearson r, multiple linear regression, and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results exposed the high-level work performance, public leadership, public service motivation, and professionalism of the Lupong Tagapamayapa. Moreover, the correlation test yielded a significant linear relationship between leadership and professionalism and public service motivation and professionalism. However, the relationship between work performance and professionalism was insignificant. Subsequently, the regression result revealed a combined predictive capability of work performance, leadership, and public service motivation on professionalism. Furthermore, the structural equation modeling revealed that public leadership and public service motivation are predictors of professionalism with specific manifest variables: accountability and network governance for public leadership; compassion and self-sacrifice for public service motivation. These manifest variables can only predict professional ethos and challenge under the professionalism construct. Finally, the studys findings have implications for effective and efficient mediation protocols in the barangays. The paper contained further discussions and inferences about the results.

“…Importantly, participants showed greater welcoming of accountability to fulfill their responsibilities to others—a prosocial response to give others what they are due ( Peteet et al, 2022 )—the morning after compassionate reappraisal compared to rumination. Interpersonal offenses have been interpreted as a failure of relational accountability ( Witvliet, 2020 ), and this study offers the first evidence that a compassionate reappraisal (vs. ruminative) response to one’s real-life offender may elevate one’s own willingness to be accountable to others.…”

Sufficient sleep quality and quantity are important for biopsychosocial well-being. Correlational research has linked trait forgiveness to better sleep. Prior experimental evidence also demonstrated contrasting effects of offense rumination versus compassionate reappraisal on forgiveness and psychophysiological responses, suggesting the value of testing effects on sleep. The present study assessed 180 participants (90 M, 90 F). First, we replicated an individual difference model of forgiveness, rumination, depressed and anxious affect, and sleep. Second, we conducted a quasi-experiment inducing offense rumination and compassionate reappraisal on two consecutive nights. Compassionate reappraisal (vs. rumination) replicated past research by prompting more empathic, forgiving, positive, and social responses, with less negative emotion including anger. New findings revealed that compassionate reappraisal (vs. rumination) was also associated with faster sleep onset, fewer sleep disturbances, and fewer sleep impairing offense intrusions. The morning after compassionate reappraisal, participants reported less rumination and intrusive impact of the offense, with more hedonic well-being and accountability to others. Compared to rumination, compassionate reappraisal was associated with more empathy and forgiveness, better sleep, well-being, and prosociality.

“…One area receiving more attention as of late is the virtue of accountability, which includes taking responsibility for both one’s part in an experience and being aware of personal impact on others (Peteet et al ., 2022 ).

RES PSYCHOTHER-PSYCH

Group psychotherapy has been shown to be equivalent to individual therapy for many disorders, including anxiety, depression, grief, eating disorders, and schizophrenia (Burlingame & Strauss, 2021). In addition to effectiveness in reducing symptoms, group offers members a sense of belonging, purpose, hope, altruism, and meaning throughout treatment (Yalom & Leszcz, 2020). These additional outcomes are especially important considering the COVID-19 pandemic and national/international conflicts, given the trauma, disruptions, and losses people have experienced. Applying recent developments in positive psychology to group therapy can enhance treatment. A practice-friendly review examined recent advances in the positive psychology literature, demonstrating how group therapy offers members unique growth opportunities in addition to reducing symptoms. Key findings from studies applying positive psychological constructs to group therapy outcomes are synthesized. Our review sheds light on the relevance of third wave positive psychology to enrich group therapy (Lomas et al., 2021). Specifically, group therapy can facilitate the development of vitalizing psychological virtues, and these can be used to assess treatment outcome: humanity, wisdom, transcendence, courage, temperance, and justice. Interrelatedly, we present support for including attachment theory and mentalization within a positive psychological group framework. Implications are explored for group therapy research, clinical work, and training.
