Coping resources,coping strategies and adjustment to organizational change: Direct or buffering effects?

Abstract

This study examined the effects of personal and social resources, coping strategies and appraised stress on employees' levels of anxiety and depression. In relation to the effects of resources and coping strategies, two different models were tested. The main effects model proposes that, irrespective of the level of stress, coping resources and coping strategies have direct effects on well-being. In contrast, the buffering model predicts that the buffering effects of coping resources ad strategies are only evident at high levels of stress. One hundred lawyers completed a structured self-administered questionnaire that measured their personal and social resources, use of problem-focused and emotion-focused coping strategies, and appraisals of the stressfulness of the situation. Results revealed generally strong support for the main effects model in the prediction of employee levels of anxiety and depression. Lower levels of anxiety were linked to judgements of lower levels of organizational change, greater self-confidence, greater internality of control beliefs and less use of emotion-focused coping strategies. Lower levels of depression in employees were also linked to judgements of lower levels of organizational change, greater use of resources and less appraised stress. There was only limited support for the buffering effects model. Due to the small size of the sample, the findings need to be explored further in other contexts.

“项目进村”实践效果差异性的乡土逻辑

项目制作为国家治理的一种重要手段,旨在用程序化的资金分配及使用方式解决公共服务问题,但在自上而下不同层级的不同制度逻辑和行动策略中,项目制的初衷发生扭曲,从而使得项目在基层实践出现较大的效果差异,文章通过对于项目制在基层运作过程的三个阶段：项目争取与闪躲、项目落地与实施、项目实效发挥与维护的分析,认为基层组织困境是导致“项目进村”实践效果差异的主要原因,从而带来农民被排除在项目运作过程之外、需求无法表达,资源下乡滋生分利秩序,项目实效难以持续发挥等问题。

农村选举中的资源竞争与制度供给

当前一些地区的村委会选举中发生各种违规行为,甚至出现严重的暴力冲突事件。要分析其中的关键因素,可以从建立理论框架着手,依据共有资源竞争与制度供给相关理论,结合我国农村地区在取消农业税之后的治理结构现状,对村集体资源的竞争在何种情况下可能出现"失序",并进而导致暴力和冲突的发生进行分析。集体资源的收益大小会显著影响选举冲突的发生及其激烈程度;但其背后的关键作用机制,则是制度供给不足导致的基层治理能力弱化。要改变这种状况,除了需要鼓励乡镇一级基层政府更多地承担监管责任外,也应加强村庄内部的决策参与机制建设。     

Work-related and individual determinants of the three burnout dimensions

Applying the Conservation of Resources (COR) theory as a framework, this study among Dutch nurses (n=156) first tested whether work-related demands, resources and self-esteem were differentially associated with the three burnout dimensions (emotional exhaustion, personal accomplishment and depersonalization), respectively. In addition, the current study investigated the interrelationships between the burnout dimensions and the hypothesized moderating effect of self-esteem. As expected, emotional exhaustion was primarily associated with job demands (i.e. work overload) and-to a slightly lower extent-with resources such as social support and self-esteem. In contrast, but also according to the authors' predictions, depersonalization and personal accomplishment were not associated with job demands. Emotional exhaustion was, as predicted, an important correlate of depersonalization, whereas reduced personal accomplishment was negatively associated with self-esteem and with quality of work content, a resource. In line with earlier findings but contrary to some recent propositions, reduced personal accomplishment was positively associated with depersonalization. Finally, self-esteem did not moderate the relationships between the selected work factors and the burnout dimensions. The limitations of the study are discussed and directions for future research are proposed.     

基于资源战略观的营销资源层级模型研究

我们基于企业资源战略观和市场营销理论构建的营销资源层级模型,揭示出营销资源是一个多层级、多维度的资源体系,营销资源向企业绩效的转化是通过层级递进机制进行的,即基础营销资源转化成为营销能力,营销能力转化成为市场资产,再由市场资产转化成为企业绩效.基于营销资源层级模型,我们提出了有关营销资源层级作用提升企业绩效的系列命题,但这些命题有待实证的检验.     

合法化资源与中国工人的行动主义——1957年上海“工潮”再研究

本文引入资源动员理论与政治过程理论，重新考察了1957年上海“工潮”中参与者、资源、动员网络和国家制度环境之间的互动关系。笔者认为，20世纪50年代的中国工人逐渐形成了影响其后的行动主义传统，这种传统突出表现在行动者对外部合法化资源（来自国家意识形态、权威领导人的言论、官方舆论倾向等）的依赖和获取之上，并与精英、认同和网络一起构成其行动主义动员机制中的诸多要素。
