With increasing mental health problems witnessed among students, adequately addressing their well-being is becoming important on college campuses. This study compares international and domestic graduate students in the United States on domains that are relevant to both student groups (perfectionistic personality, academic stress) and how these…

There is a well-recognised mental health and wellbeing crisis among the undergraduate population in UK higher education. However, the wellbeing of postgraduate research students (PGRs) and the effectiveness of university strategies in supporting PGR wellbeing are much less understood. Early research shows that PGRs' wellbeing is impacted by their…

Introduction: The objective of the present study was to determine if emotional intelligence and family stress are predictors of satisfaction with studies in university students. Method: Cross-sectional predictive study with a quantitative approach. The population was made up of 414 university students of both sexes who applied the TMMS-24…

Measures of job satisfaction and preparedness from an initial survey with music teachers (n=40) were used to predict flow states using Csikszentmihalyi's theory of flow. Flow state and corresponding professional action data were collected through experience sampling. Multiple linear regression was used to show relationships between demographic…

Parents, particularly mothers, of autistic children may be especially vulnerable to the negative effects of COVID-19.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the technostress effects on the students' expectancy in their academic performance. Three main factors were used as predictors, namely techno-complexity (TC), techno-insecurity (TIS) and techno-overload (TO), to measure the students' performance expectancy via the mediating effects of student satisfaction (SS).…

Even though in 2021 many universities have decided to resume teaching activities face to face, we believe that the use of online applications will remain a feature of the educational system due to the flexibility offered and the learning possibilities. We aim to analyze the predictive role of personal factors, such as self-efficacy, technostress…

The goal of this narrative review was to summarize the literature findings regarding the occurrence and predictors of burnout syndrome in medical students in the online learning period during the COVID-19 pandemic. This review of identified relevant studies showed that their results were highly heterogeneous, primarily due to the important…

Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 2019 data revealed that Grade 8 science teachers in several Asian countries (Chinese Taipei, Hong Kong SAR, Japan, and South Korea) reported lower job satisfaction levels than the international average. For example, while Japanese Grade 8 students ranked among the highest in science…

Several studies have demonstrated the relevance of job demands-resources theory in examining the subjective well-being of Chinese university teachers. Nevertheless, the specific impact and mechanisms of various dimensions of job demands and resources on faculty members' subjective well-being are not well understood. This study seeks to identify…

Using data from 450 public sector faculty members, a job demand-resource model of antecedents of satisfaction with work-family balance (balance satisfaction) was tested using PLS SEM. To understand the factors and processes that shape up balance satisfaction, the mediating variables in the model were psychological capital, work-to-family conflict,…

The aims explored associations between stress ratings and influences on coping and personality on student course satisfaction and anxiety. Most research construes stress as distress, with little attempt to consider positive 'eustress' experiences. Undergraduate students (N = 162) were surveyed on student and pandemic-related stressors,…
