The purpose of this study was designing and testing a model of the relationship of mindfulness with job burnout and well-being mediated by work stress.MethodThe statistic population of the research was all the employees of the Dareh-Aloo Copper Industries of Kerman province. The sample consisted of 300 employees who were selected by simple random sampling method, that 210 members of sample filled the forms properly. The instruments were used include Freiburg Mindfulness Inventory (FMI), Health and Safety Executive (HSE) stress questionnaire, Psychological Well-being Scale and Burnout Inventory. Fitness of the proposed model was examined through structural equation modeling (SEM) and the mediating role of job stress was examined by boot-strap method, using SPSS-24 and AMOS-24 softwares. ResultsThe indirect effects were tested using the bootstrap procedure. Findings indicated the proposed model after modifing fit the data properly. Results showed that the direct path of mindfulness to job burnout and mindfulness to well-being were not significant and confirmed all the direct effects of mindfulness on burnout and well-being were through job stressDiscussionAccording to the results, it can be said that by increasing the level of mindfulness of the people in the organization can reduce their job stress and consequently reduce the burnout of employees and increase their well-being.

This research was carried out with the aim of determining the relationships between the five–fits with job stress and considering moderating role of personality. The design was descriptive and correlational. The statiscally population was included all employees of PolyAcril Company of Iran (800 persons) in 2018. The sample size was (260) estimated by random sampling to the class proportional to the sample size applying. The measurement instruments consisted of person-Job fit (PGF), person-organozition fit (POF), Person-vocation fit (PEF) person-group fit (PGF), person-career fit (PCF), Job stress (JS) and big five personality questionnaire (BFPQ). Data were analyzed with the use of descriptive and Structure Equation Modeling (SEM) using PLS smart software. Results revealed that there is a significant relationships between the person – group fit and stress, five fits and job stress. also five fits and job with moderating role of component personality openness. In this research From among the five fits and personality characteistics, the person- group fit and the component personality openness played a key role at reducting stress. It is recommended that company management reduce stress of their staff play by applay the structural model.

The purpose of this study was designing and testing a model of some personal (psychological capital, basic psychological needs), job related (job characteristics, job stress), and organizational variables (servant leadership, organizational ethical climate) as antecedents of organizational well-being. The statistical population of the present research included all employees of National Iranian South Oil Company (NISOC). 384 employees were selected by multi-stage random sampling method. Instruments used in the present study were Personally Expressive Activities Questionnaire (PEAQ), Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ), Servant Leadership Survey (SLS), Organizational Ethical Climate Questionnaire (OECQ), Job Stress Questionnaire (JSQ), Basic Psychological Needs at Work Scale (BPNWS), and Job Content Questionnaire (JCQ). Structural equation modeling (SEM) through AMOS-18 software package was used for data analysis. Results showed that the proposed model fit the data properly. Moreover, direct positive relationships of the psychological capital, basic psychological needs, job characteristics, servant leadership, organizational ethical climate with organizational well-being, and direct negative relationship of job stress with organizational well-being were confirmed. Bootstrap procedure for testing indirect effect revealed that organizational ethical climate mediated the relationship between servant leadership and organizational well-being.

The present study was conducted intending to take into account the mediating work-family conflict role in relation with stress and social support with job and family satisfaction. Study samples included 203 industrial factory personnel selected through convenience sampling in Ahvaz over 2014. In this study, which is a descriptive endeavor of a correlational nature , participants filled in the job stress scale (Parkers & Decotis, 1983), the perceived organizational support survey (Eisenberger, et al., 1997), the job in general scale (Ironson, et al., 1989), the family stress questionnaire (Hennessy, 2005), the perceived social support-family scale (Procidano & Heller, 1983), the family satisfaction scale (Aryee, et al., 1999), and the work-family conflict scale (Carlson, et al., 2000). Structural equation modeling was used to assess the suggested pattern and the bootstrapping method was used to test the mediating effect and it was performed via AMOS. Structural equation modeling indices confirmed general study patterns. Among the relations, only the direct relation of job stress and perceived organizational support were deleted from pattern 1 (work-family conflict mediation). The fitting indices obtained showed that the corrected pattern was of good fitness. Results from the bootstrapping method and the confidence distance from it showed that the work-family conflict completely mediates between job stress and perceived organizational support with family satisfaction and family-work conflict is a partial mediator between family stress and perceived family support with job satisfaction. Thus, job stress and perceived organizational support affect family satisfaction only through work-family conflict, while in the family, family stress and perceived family support directly affect job satisfaction through family-work conflict. Therefore, organizations are not only able to manage conflicts generated between work and the family, but can satisfy personnel with the job itself and the family can apply suitable approaches to reduce their own personnel stress and increase their support.

The purpose of this study was to investigate job stressors and personality characteristics as the predictors of the psychosomatic symptoms of the staff of Bidboland refinery in Ahwaz. The subjects were 83 employees who were selected based on their medical files. The healthy sample consisted of 119 employees who were selected through simple random sampling. Altogether, 202 employees answered the negative act, effort-reward imbalance, job content, work-family conflict, organizational justice, and NEO personality (except openness and agreeableness) questionnaires. In order to analyze the main hypothesis, discriminant analysis using enter and stepwise methods were applied and to validate the analysis, Pearson’s correlation and confirmatory factor analysis were used. Results indicated that the discriminant equation confirmed the main hypothesis. In other words, job stressors and personality characteristics, were able to predict the probability of psychosomatic symptom increase.

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of stress management training based on cognitive-behavior therapy on type A personality and job stressors in an industrial company. Research population included all personnel of that company and as a primary sample 500 person was selected randomly. Final sample was 30 men who had 1 St.d more than mean in type A personality inventory and randomly divided into experimental and control groups. As a pretest we performed type A personality and job stressors inventories in both experimental and control groups then the experimental group received 10 sessions of stress management training based on cognitive-behavior therapy. After experimental intervention, experimental and control groups were examined in post-test step through type A personality and job stress inventories. MANCOVA results showed that stress management training was effective in type A behavior patterns reform and personnel job stress reduce in that industrial company.
