“…In this study, life satisfaction scores were low, and life satisfaction was not affected by socio‐demographic variables and disease characteristics. George‐Levi and Laslo‐Roth ( 2021 ) found that mothers of children with developmental disabilities had low life satisfaction. Mothers of ill children were also found to have higher levels of anxiety about the future than fathers of ill children and the parents of disease‐free children (Bujnowska et al, 2019 ).…”

“…Active entitlement : Sense of entitlement was measured using the Entitlement Questionnaire‐Short Form in Polish (Żemojtel‐Piotrowska, Piotrowski, Cieciuch, 2017) and in Hebrew (George‐Levi & Laslo‐Roth, 2021). This scale consists of 15 items divided into 3 subscales ranked on a Likert scale ranging from 1 ( strongly disagree ) to 6 ( strongly agree ).…”

“…Active entitlement may be especially relevant for college students' ability to pursue their goals while maintaining positive relationships with others as it is expressed in the belief that one deserves the best by promoting oneself without violating others' rights. Active entitlement has been found to be related to several positive outcomes such as high self-esteem, internal locus of control, well-being, and life satisfaction (e.g., George-Levi & Laslo-Roth, 2021;Zemojtel-Piotrowska et al, 2013).…”

Loneliness has recently been defined as a public health problem, and college students from various cultures are considered a vulnerable group. As college students must cope with new personal, social, and academic challenges, their perceptions regarding their entitlement from their environment, and their gratefulness for the assistance they receive, may make a unique contribution to their experience of loneliness. In the current study we examined the associations between loneliness, gratitude, and two types of entitlement (active and academic) among college students in two countries: Israel and Poland. A total of 313 Israeli students and 275 Polish students completed a series of questionnaires. The results indicated that Israeli students experienced lower levels of loneliness and academic entitlement, and higher levels of active entitlement and gratitude, in comparison to Polish students. The two types of entitlement and gratitude mediated the association between students' country and loneliness. Active entitlement predicted more gratitude, which predicted lower levels of loneliness. However, academic entitlement predicted lower levels of gratitude, which predicted more loneliness. Our focus on entitlement, gratitude, and loneliness offers insights into the understanding of the psychological and social dynamics among college students in two countries, with implications for theoretical understanding and intervention planning in higher education.

“…These studies maintain that such feelings promote self-advocacy, efficacy, and assertiveness, encouraging a more balanced perspective on personal rights and responsibilities. They concluded that a sense of entitlement can be an important coping resource (Brant & Castro, 2019;Confino et al, 2023;George-Levi & Laslo-Roth, 2021). Piotrowski and Żemojtel-Piotrowska (2009) proposed a model of the sense of entitlement consisting of three forms: active entitlement, based on the protection of one's self-interests; passive entitlement, which focuses on the conviction that institutions and organizations are obligated to satisfy one's needs, and revenge entitlement, based on the protection of one's self-interests when they are threatened or violated.…”

“…In addition, studies could investigate the links between a sense of entitlement and burnout in more depth, specifically for teachers and those in other high-risk professions. As mentioned, while sense of entitlement has been viewed in some studies as an important resource (Confino et al, 2023;George-Levi and Laslo-Roth, 2021), in the context of burnout it may be linked to overwhelming feelings of frustration and helplessness in the face of a reality that teachers regard as uncontrollable or unfavorable.…”

Psychological burnout is strongly associated with negative effects on people’s life, including their emotional well-being and physical health. Due to prolonged periods of stress, heavy workloads, limited resources and time constraints, teachers are prone to burnout, leading to aversive, prolonged consequences. While previous studies have investigated various factors associated with their burnout, we explored the association between teachers’ relational and personal variables, applying a cross-sectional method. The sample consisted of 248 Israeli teachers (85.1% worked in educational settings for typically developing children, 52.4% were employed in high schools), who completed the following questionnaires: Teachers’ burnout, Perceived social support, Gratitude, Hope, Active entitlement and Loneliness. Results demonstrated negative links between burnout and social support, gratitude and hope as well as a positive link with loneliness. A serial multiple mediation revealed that, whereas social support and hope were associated with lower levels of burnout, feelings of loneliness and a sense of entitlement were related to higher levels of it. Furthermore, gratitude, hope, a sense of entitlement, and loneliness linked social support with burnout. We concluded with a discussion of the implications for future research, theory, and interventions.
