The potential bidirectional relationship between these constructs remains underexplored, particularly in primary and lower secondary school teachers. This study examines the reciprocal relationship between burnout and PWA among teachers over time, using the job demands-resources (JD-R) model and the conservation of resources (COR) theory. A two-wave longitudinal study was conducted among 853 Czech primary and lower secondary school teachers. Data were collected via web-based questionnaires at two time points. Bayesian cross-lagged panel modeling (CLPM) was applied to analyze the bidirectional effects of burnout and PWA while controlling demographic variables. Burnout significantly predicted lower PWA, supporting the JD-R model's health impairment process. Contrary to expectations, higher PWA was associated with increased burnout, suggesting that PWA may not function as a protective factor in the teaching context, but rather as a risk factor increasing vulnerability to strain. Post hoc analyses indicated that burnout's detrimental influence on PWA emerged through several coherent facet-to-facet pathways, while in the reverse direction, only higher PWA in the teaching organization predicted later physical exhaustion. The study clarifies the directionality of associations between burnout and PWA, contributing to theory development and offering implications for interventions.</p>","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.

This study involved a total of 5,477 adolescents and 3,995 emerging adults in China, surveyed on two occasions.

Four distinct profiles were identified among adolescents: “low risk,” “family adversity,” “peer adversity,” and “multiple adversities,” while four profiles emerged among emerging adults: “low risk,” “family adversity,” “teacher-peer adversity,” and “multiple adversities.” Both adolescents and emerging adults in the “low risk” group reported the lowest levels of CPTSD symptoms and the highest levels of PTG. Conversely, among adolescents, the “multiple adversities” and “peer adversity” groups showed the highest CPTSD symptoms, while the “family adversity” group reported the lowest PTG. Among emerging adults, the “multiple adversities” had the highest CPTSD symptoms, and both “multiple adversities” and “family adversity” groups showed the lowest PTG.

The main objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to report effects of VRn on mental health and wellbeing of students in higher education.

Information sources were: OVID (Embase, MEDLINE, PsycINFO), SCOPUS, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, PubMed and GreenFILE. Searches were conducted May 2023 and re-run November 2024. The modified Downs and Black checklist for randomised and non-randomised studies was used to assess risk of bias. To synthesise results, data were first extracted into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and summarised in narrative, statistical and tabular formats. Twenty-four articles were included. Two studies were ‘good’ quality, 18 ‘fair’, and four ‘poor’. Total sample size was 1,419. Two studies compared VRn versus real nature, six VRn versus no intervention, seven VRn versus flat-screen. Twelve studies included forests as the only natural environment. Thirteen of 17, seven of eight, four of five, and four of seven studies reported pre-post intervention beneficial effects on self-reported mood, anxiety, stress and cognition, respectively. Nine of 13, six of 10 and all five studies that measured cardiovascular, skin conductivity and brain activity respectively, reported pre-post intervention beneficial effects. All five studies that measured anxiety, all three studies that measured mood, and all four studies that measured stress, found no significant differences between VRn and flat-screen images of nature.

This pre-registered multiple systematic review of RCTs aims to map and synthesize evidence from these trials regarding the overall impact of such interventions on strengths and well-being. Based on Peterson and Seligman's Virtues in Action model, which groups 24 character strengths under 6 virtues as latent variables, we conducted searches for each character strength (21 in total), across four specialized databases, including gray literature. The included RCTs assessed the impact of virtue-based interventions with adult participants in studies including baseline and post-intervention measures of the targeted strength and well-being. After reviewing 61,479 abstracts, 162 RCTs were included representing 15 strengths grouped into the six virtues among 33,032 participants. In contrast, the interventions with the best evidence for increasing strengths and well-being were those that enhanced kindness, humor, hope, perspective, and gratitude. Our review revealed that there is a relative paucity of RCT studies in the field and a need to include robust outcome measures. While there is relatively robust evidence of the efficacy of RCTs to enhance certain character strengths and associated well-being, there is still insufficient evidence on the efficacy of most of the 24 strengths of Peterson and Seligman's model.

Van Dam","doi":"10.1111/aphw.70063","DOIUrl":"10.1111/aphw.70063","url":null,"abstract":"<p>The popularity of meditation has surged in recent years, driven by the accessibility of digital platforms. In this context, shorter sessions have become common, often accompanied by claims of substantial benefits. The vast differences in practice intensity—from traditional monastic training and residential retreats to multi-week Mindfulness-Based Programs and infrequent digital home practice—raise the question of how much practice is necessary to see meaningful benefits. Our previous analysis of lifetime practice history suggested that 160 hours were required for clinically meaningful improvements in psychological distress and life satisfaction, with more needed for stable changes in affect. However, those findings could not address the effects of newly undertaken practice, the best ways to accumulate experience, or how these effects vary by practice history. This study fills these gaps by examining dose–response relationships in a diverse sample of meditators engaging in self-directed practice in ecologically valid settings, while testing the moderating effects of practice history, personality traits, and meditation goals. One thousand fifty-three participants provided data across nine surveys over a two-month period of prospectively monitored, self-directed meditation practice, followed by a 2- to 4-year follow-up. Using a longitudinal design, we examined associations between meditation practice dose and outcomes including positive and negative affect, psychological distress, and life satisfaction. Meditation practice dose was significantly associated with improvements in well-being, affect, and distress, with practice frequency being a stronger predictor of beneficial outcomes than session duration. During the 2-month prospective period, after controlling for prior lifetime practice, 35 to 65 minutes daily practice was required for meaningful improvements in well-being, and 50 to 80 minutes daily was needed for meaningful improvements in mental health outcomes. Dose–response effects were moderated by lifetime practice experience across all outcomes, while negative emotionality moderated the relationship for mental health-related outcomes. Additionally, valuing mental health as a practice goal moderated dose–response effects for mental health outcomes, and cumulative practice from baseline to follow-up predicted increased valuation of spiritual growth as a practice goal. Our findings indicate that practitioners with varied practice histories, personality traits, and practice goals/motivations benefit from meditation on outcomes measuring mental health and well-being, with such benefits maintained over a 2–4 year follow-up period.</p>","PeriodicalId":8127,"journal":{"name":"Applied psychology.
