“…At the same time, as was the case with previous studies, other sociodemographic variables were not significant in the explanation of psychological capital (Arum and Wustari, 2010 ; Caza et al, 2010 ), burnout (Lovell and Wetherell, 2016 ; Manzano-García and Ayala, 2017 ) or PWB (Benjak, 2011 ). Malekitabar et al ( 2017 ) showed that gender does not have a moderating role in the relationship between psychological capital and burnout, nor in the relationship between PWB and burnout. Nevertheless, it is necessary to continue researching the possible moderating role played by sociodemographic variables in explaining psychological capital, burnout and PWB, and the relationship between them, since the results are currently inconclusive (Evans and Steptoe, 2002 ; Maslach and Leiter, 2008 ; Ding et al, 2015 ).…”

This study investigates the specific role of burnout as a mediator in the relationship between psychological capital and psychological well-being (PWB) in direct support staff of specialist autism services. A time lagged design with three data-collection points was conducted to survey 56 professionals (direct support staff) who work at a Spanish center specialized in autism. Participants completed measures of psychological capital, burnout and PWB. The hypothesized model was tested using structural equation modeling. Our findings show that psychological capital has a significant main effect on PWB. The results also show that psychological capital in the work environment should result in lower burnout which in turn, should lead to higher degrees of PWB in the direct support staff of autism services. Our results support that psychological capital is a key variable in the working life of the direct support staff of autism services. The findings suggest the need of implementing programmes which strengthen each individual's psychological capital in order to prevent burnout and achieve a greater PWB.

“…One study was removed as it employed a student rather than a workplace sample (Gooty et al, 2009), and four studies were removed due to measuring similar but different constructs from the focus of this study (e.g., measuring career satisfaction) (Ganotice et al, 2016; Guo et al, 2012; Polatci & Akdogan, 2014; Zhang et al, 2014). One further study was also removed due to inconsistent reporting of the correlation coefficients for the relationship between PsyCap and burnout (Malekitabar et al, 2017). Finally, 16 theses were removed due to not having access to the full-text and a further 12 studies were excluded as these studies did not provide the results of the correlation coefficients, despite follow up email requests to the corresponding authors of these studies.…”

This paper presents the most rigorous meta-analysis undertaken to date of empirical literature examining antecedents and outcomes related to psychological capital (PsyCap), and moderators of these relationships. We investigated seven leadership styles as antecedents of PsyCap (authentic, ethical, servant, empowering, transactional, transformational, and abusive leadership), five outcomes (burnout, turnover intentions, work engagement, performance, and satisfaction), and the impact of four moderators (country of sample origin, cultural characteristics, industry type, and research design). Our analysis of PsyCap research (2007–2020) examined 244 studies (254 independent samples and over 96000 participants), which is over twice as large as previous PsyCap meta-analyses. To optimize the quality and reliability of findings, we corrected for artefacts and included heterogeneity, sensitivity, and publication bias analyses. Our results provide several new findings beyond previous PsyCap meta-analyses. We found that empowering, servant, transformational, and transactional leadership were all positively associated with PsyCap, with empowering and transformational leadership being the strongest antecedents of PsyCap and abusive and transactional leadership being the weakest. The findings demonstrated PsyCap was positively associated with work engagement, and negatively associated with burnout. Country of sample origin moderated all the relationships, except for servant and transactional leadership. Additionally, cultural characteristics (e.g., power distance, masculinity, long-term orientation, and uncertainty avoidance) moderated several conceptual relationships. Study design was also found to moderate the PsyCap—work engagement relationship. Collectively, these findings offer new and extended insights into the antecedents, outcomes, and moderators related to PsyCap, beyond previous meta-analyses. The theoretical and practical implications of these new findings are also discussed.

“…Fostering PsyCap leads to lower burnout and revitalizes the PWB of employees (Manzano-García & Ayala, 2017). However, gender does not play a moderating role in the relationship between PWB and job burnout, and in the relationship between PsyCap and job burnout (Malekitabar et al, 2017). In a sample of nurses, PsyCap was negatively related to emotional exhaustion, and facilitated an in increase in PWB (Laschinger & Grau, 2012).…”

Is the psychological well-being (PWB) of employees essential to be considered by organizations? Does it have an impact on an organization in the long-run? This study attempts to provide a holistic view of literature on PWB and how it has become indispensable for employees and the organization. The study also proposes a framework consisting of precedents and outcomes of PWB of employees in organizations. A review of the literature of 142 studies was done using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework along with the main construct PWB and ten related organizational variables. PWB has been analysed from a eudaimonic perspective. Literature review reveals the scarcity of management literature on the eudaimonic sense of well-being of employees, and how well-being is not distinguished on the basis of its philosophical roots. Our research discusses the variables which have been studied comprehensively in juxtaposition with well-being, and also those variables which are yet to be explored with eudaimonia as the focus. The study is a novel attempt to systematize literature on the under-examined eudaimonic perspective of PWB of employees and its relationship with prominent organizational variables. The study intends to give practitioners and the managers value adding insights into the factors that affect the PWB of employees and also how these factors can be honed for better employee mental health leading to higher organizational returns.
