“…The assumption is that, in all cultures, individuals who view their community as being comprehensible, manageable, and meaningful will have another resource to rely on when needed. In the context of the present research, it is important to note that previous studies have found that higher levels of community sense of coherence can contribute to greater job satisfaction and are also associated with better subjective well-being (e.g., [10,11]). Specifically in the cultural group that is the subject of the present study (i.e., the Ultra-Orthodox), community sense of coherence has been shown to be an important contributor to job satisfaction and well-being [12].…”

This study explored the mental health and job satisfaction of Ultra-Orthodox women who work in different cultural environments. Data were gathered from 304 Ultra-Orthodox women who belong to various streams in this society and who were recruited by the Midgam research panel. The participants filled out self-reported questionnaires that assessed their family quality of life, community sense of coherence, diversity climate, inclusive leadership, job satisfaction, and mental health. The participants ranged in age between 19 and 64 years (M = 30.86, SD = 8.71); 43.1% worked within the Ultra-Orthodox enclave, while 22.4% worked with both Ultra-Orthodox and secular individuals and 34.5% worked in mainly secular environments. We observed differences and similarities among the three groups of women. Community sense of coherence was weakest among those who worked outside the enclave, while diversity perception and inclusive leadership were highest among that group. In all three groups, family and community were the most important resources for mental health. Both traditional resources (i.e., family and community) and other resources (i.e., perception of diversity climate and inclusive leadership) were important for job satisfaction.

“…En otro estudio, las estrategias destacadas fueron el afrontamiento activo, seguido por el reencuadre positivo y la planificación (Braun-Lewensohn & Bar, 2017). Cuando la relación marital tenía vínculo religioso, se encontró que usaba más la autodistracción, la religión y el replanteamiento positivo.…”

Esta investigación busca explicar la estabilidad marital en las Fuerzas Militares a partir de la funcionalidad familiar, las estrategias de afrontamiento y el apoyo social, ante los desafíos de la misionalidad que afectan las relaciones maritales. Para ello se hizo una encuesta a 255 hombres y mujeres militares con una relación marital y separados físicamente. Se midieron las variables, según mando, el tipo de unión y los años de matrimonio, mediante varios instrumentos. Los resultados indican una correlación entre la estabilidad marital y la funcionalidad familiar, la obtención de apoyo social y el apoyo espiritual. La variable que más incide en la estabilidad marital es la funcionalidad familiar. Los militares con unión marital de hecho reportaron mayor estabilidad que los de unión religiosa o civil.

“…In this regard, a recent study among Israeli communities surrounding the Gaza Strip and exposed to ongoing political violence identified parents in young families (parents of children under 17) as a primary vulnerable group in terms of experiencing a sharp decrease in perceived resilience levels (Shapira et al, 2020). In times of distress, the concern for their children's safety has served as an additional burden for them (Braun-Lewensohn & Bar, 2017), and they may feel that they are harming their children by exposing them to these threats (Pat-Horenczyk et al, 2012). Mothers of young children are particularly vulnerable in these circumstances.…”

In recent years, mobile media applications have become a significant resource for crisis communication and communal coping during natural disasters and wars. Drawing on communal coping and media affordance research, we examined the roles that a WhatsApp group plays for mothers living in an ongoing conflict area. We examined, through in-depth interviews, a local WhatsApp group operating in a community adjacent to the Israel–Gaza border. Findings revealed the unique emotion-focused and problem-focused coping strategies people use when facing ongoing threats. Four affordances—immediacy, reachability, mobility, and multimediality—contributed to WhatsApp’s role as a shared and ubiquitous coping resource. This study demonstrates the ways in which instant messaging communication affordances contribute to communal coping strategies in ongoing conflict areas.
