          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Purpose: We aimed to identify the effects of predictors of work-related well-being in the Brazilian Psychology literature. Originality/value: Researchers have focused on employee well-being to optimize working conditions and work performance in organizations. Despite a long research tradition about well-being, the predictors of employee well-being are not clear in the Brazilian literature. Design/methodology/approach: First, in the literature review, we selected five studies using the descriptor “well-being” in the Brazilian portal of Electronic Journals in Psychology (Periódicos Eletrônicos em Psicologia [PePSIC]) and applied inclusion and exclusion criteria. Next, we compiled those studies’ evidence to perform a meta-analysis using the software Jamovi 0.9.5.12 and the plugin MAJOR Meta-analysis 1.0.0 R. Findings: The prediction of employee well-being - performed by means of intra-individual variables, connections with organizations and labor (O&L), and macro variables - was clear about the positive and negative impacts of variables on well-being. However, further research studies are necessary, especially those in the interface with Administration and other areas, in order to optimize the generalization of the effects we found. In summary, this study contributes to the field of study by presenting preliminary evidence to elaborate high impact, evidence-based policies and practices on people management, including a possible interdisciplinary association between Psychology and Administration.

          RESUMO Objetivo: O presente estudo objetivou identificar os efeitos desencadeados por preditores de bem-estar em trabalhadores relacionados na literatura brasileira em Psicologia. Originalidade/valor: O bem-estar dos trabalhadores está entre os focos fundamentais para otimização das condições laborais e desempenho nas organizações. Há uma larga tradição de investigação sobre o fenômeno, no entanto não há clareza na literatura brasileira sobre os fatores preditores de bem-estar em trabalhadores. Design/metodologia/abordagem: Primeiramente, cinco estudos foram resgatados por meio de revisão de literatura com o uso do descritor “bem-estar” no portal de Periódicos Eletrônicos em Psicologia (PePSIC) e aplicação de critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Em seguida, as evidências dessas investigações foram compiladas para metanálise, por meio do software Jamovi 0.9.5.12 e o plugin MAJOR Meta-analysis 1.0.0 R. Resultados: Os resultados demonstraram que a predição de bem-estar em trabalhadores por meio de variáveis intraindividuais, vínculos com organizações e trabalho (O&T) e variáveis de nível macro apresenta clareza entre as variáveis que impactaram positiva e negativamente. No entanto, são necessários estudos ulteriores, principalmente em interface com a Administração e outras áreas, para otimizar o potencial de generalização dos efeitos encontrados. Em suma, o presente estudo contribui com evidências preliminares para a elaboração de políticas e práticas de gestão de pessoas baseadas em evidências e com alto impacto por meio da proposição de uma possível associação interdisciplinar entre saberes da Psicologia e Administração.

            The broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions.

            The broaden-and-build theory describes the form and function of a subset of positive emotions, including joy, interest, contentment and love. A key proposition is that these positive emotions broaden an individual's momentary thought-action repertoire: joy sparks the urge to play, interest sparks the urge to explore, contentment sparks the urge to savour and integrate, and love sparks a recurring cycle of each of these urges within safe, close relationships. The broadened mindsets arising from these positive emotions are contrasted to the narrowed mindsets sparked by many negative emotions (i.e. specific action tendencies, such as attack or flee). A second key proposition concerns the consequences of these broadened mindsets: by broadening an individual's momentary thought-action repertoire--whether through play, exploration or similar activities--positive emotions promote discovery of novel and creative actions, ideas and social bonds, which in turn build that individual's personal resources; ranging from physical and intellectual resources, to social and psychological resources. Importantly, these resources function as reserves that can be drawn on later to improve the odds of successful coping and survival. This chapter reviews the latest empirical evidence supporting the broaden-and-build theory and draws out implications the theory holds for optimizing health and well-being.

              On the use of beta coefficients in meta-analysis.

              This research reports an investigation of the use of standardized regression (beta) coefficients in meta-analyses that use correlation coefficients as the effect-size metric. The investigation consisted of analyzing more than 1,700 corresponding beta coefficients and correlation coefficients harvested from published studies. Results indicate that, under certain conditions, using knowledge of corresponding beta coefficients to input missing correlations (effect sizes) generally produces relatively accurate and precise population effect-size estimates. Potential benefits from applying this knowledge include smaller sampling errors because of increased numbers of effect sizes and smaller non-sampling errors because of the inclusion of a broader array of research designs.
