PurposeIn this manuscript, the authors argue that those suffering from depressive symptoms are prone to experiencing bouts of unproductivity. The authors argue further that such conditions promote instances of self-disclosure regarding related symptoms in the interest of procuring workplace support, i.e. the effect of depressive symptomology on workplace support is mediated by both unproductivity and self-disclosure, in turn.Design/methodology/approachTwo different online investigations were implemented to assess the accuracy of this prediction. Moreover, two different samples of organizational employees from numerous organizations were procured, such that one sample contained diagnosed individuals, whereas the other contained undiagnosed individuals (total N = 756). In general, the main analyses consisted of confirmatory factor analysis and path analysis.FindingsSubstantial statistical support was obtained for the authors' four-variable path model. Specifically, across two different investigations, a model was found in which those with depressive symptoms were unproductive, which prompted self-disclosure and thus subsequent manifestations of workplace support. Moreover, this was generally true for both diagnosed and undiagnosed individuals. Correlation coefficients and model fit indices are reported in the manuscript.Originality/valueThis work contributes substantially to the understanding of how depressive symptomology, self-disclosure and workplace support are interrelated within organizations. In addition, having examined these relationships using a sample of undiagnosed individuals, new insights were gained regarding a subset of the population that remains vastly understudied.

“…Their CA is crucial for attracting the abilities, information, and intelligence of the school community. Likewise, another study showed on 352 nurses establishes that OC facilitated the relationship b/t organizational support and JS with the quality of care delivered and that, the observed work setting was found to have an influence on JS and the quality of care (Ahmad et al, 2022). In general, the literature advises that age, gender, education level, and years of work experience have revealed important relationships with CA in some studies, while in others, these factors did not show significant relationships.…”

Background: Self-management skills (SMS) are vital for all managers to increase managerial performance and Well-Being (WB), yet few studies have been conducted in Nepal regarding this topic. Purpose: The main aim of this paper is to explore the relationship between Self- Management Skills (SMS) and Demographic Factors (DF) among managers in Kathmandu- based organizations. Methods: The study utilized a convenience sampling approach and a cross-sectional method with respondents (n=429)- managers, employing online questionnaires due to COVID-19. The study was tested for reliability and validity. SMS questions with five-point scales were used, resulting in 50 Self-Management Skills Scores (SMSS). A score of > 25 indicated a high score, while <25 indicated below-average scores. Descriptive and regression analyses were used to analyze the data. Findings: The results revealed that 63.1% of the managers had Self-Management Skills Scores (SMSS) below the average level. Demographic factors such as age, gender, and SMS training were correlated with SMS. Research limitations/Practical Implications: There are limitations with self-reported data, single data collection, and unknown total population. According to the study, managers’ SMS competence is influenced by their SMS training, age, and gender. Organizations should invest in training and development to improve managerial skills, especially in the healthcare sector. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusiveness (DEI)-related initiatives and improved hiring practices should be given primary priority. Originality/Value: This research explores a deserved need to learn how SMS can help create a person’s nurturing personality.

“…Their experiments revealed that nurses’ job burnout was related to a series of factors, such as structural empowerment, real leadership ability, and work-life interference. For organizational employees, fairness, supervisor support, organizational rewards, and favorable working conditions are related to building a strong sense of organizational support, and these are conducive to improving and increasing job satisfaction and positive emotions ( Rhoades and Eisenberger, 2002 ; Ahmad et al, 2022 ). Some previous studies ( Liu et al, 2018 ) indicated that organizational support can predict nurses’ turnover intention, and it plays a mediating role between their job satisfaction and job burnout.…”

et al. 2023

BackgroundPsychiatric nurses need to keep close contact with patients suffering from mental illness. Because of the special nature of their profession, there is an increasing incidence of job burnout among psychiatric nurses.AimThis study examined the relationship between psychiatric nurses’ perceived organizational support, job burnout, and psychological capital. It also investigated the mediating role of psychological capital in the relationship between their perceived organizational support and job burnout.MethodsA total of 916 psychiatric nurses were recruited from 6 grade-III mental facilities in Shandong Province using the stratified sampling approach. Their data were collected and examined using a general demographic data questionnaire, The Maslach Burnout Inventory, the Perceived Organizational Support Scale, and the Psychological Capital Questionnaire.ResultsThe total score of job burnout was 53.71 ± 16.37. Specifically, 73.69% of the nurses had moderate to severe emotional exhaustion, 76.75% had moderate to severe job burnout pertaining to depersonalization, and 98.80% had moderate to severe job burnout pertaining to personal accomplishment. Spearman’s correlation analysis showed that both psychological capital (r = −0.35, p < 0.01) and perceived organizational support (r = −0.31, p < 0.01) were adversely related to job burnout. Additionally, psychological capital somewhat mediated the relationship between perceived organizational support and job burnout. Its mediating impact accounted for 33.20% of the overall effect.ConclusionThis study’s participants had a moderate to severe level of job burnout. However, organizational support and psychological capital can be crucial in alleviating this problem among psychiatric nurses. Therefore, nursing managers and medical institutions should undertake timely and positive interventions to improve psychiatric nurses’ mental health and prevent job burnout. While exploring the impact of organizational support and psychological capital on job burnout, future studies should consider other effective influencing factors, and the relationship between the different factors should be explored in depth. This would provide a basis for developing a job burnout prevention mechanism.
