    Burnout in the Skies : An Exploratory Study of Pilot Profiles and Related Psychosocial Variables
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Cuadrado, Esther; Obaid Al Nuaimi, Mohamed Yousuf; Marí-Núñez, María; Maldonado, Miguel A.; Jurado-Del-Pozo, José F.; Moyano, Manuel
    Burnout is a concern in any profession but is especially prevalent in physically demanding and highly responsible jobs such as aviation. Taking as a framework the multidimensional theories that identify three elements of burnout (emotional exhaustion, cynicism, and reduced professional efficacy), and considering previous studies that suggests people who suffer from burnout do not form a homogeneous group, this work aims to identify profiles that reflect burnout subtypes in pilots, and to understand how theydiffer based on certain variables of interest. Through a cross-sectional study with non-probability snowball sampling, 164 airplane pilots (mean age = 39.31, SD= 10.4; 92.1% men) answered a questionnaire. The two-stage cluster analysis produced three profiles of pilots: the committed, the ineffective, and those who experience burnout. Comparison analysis by groups showed that a), a higher percentage of female pilots conformed to the burnout profile compared to men, b), a curvilinear relationship occurred between age, burnout, and committed profiles such that middle-aged pilots more frequently assumed the burnout profile and older pilots the compromised profile, and c), higher levels of resilience, positivity and security, and less stress and fewer work accidents accounted for the compromised profile more often than the burnout profile. In addition, no dif-ferences were found between the ineffective profile and the burnout profile in the levels of resilience, positivity, safety, or the number of accidents at work. These findings reveal the need to pay attention not only to pilots who fit the burnout profile, but also to those matching the ineffective profile

    The dimensionality of emotional intelligence : Evidence for a four-factor model for post-Soviet and Central Asian adolescents
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Taibolatov, Kuandyk; Courtney, Matthew; Zhapparova, Aikorkem; Hernández Torrano, Daniel
    Introduction:The study of emotional intelligence (EI) has garnered significant attention due to its relevance to diverse age-and population-groups, and persons of various social and academic backgrounds. The capacity for an individual to effectively understand and manage one’s own emotions and understand and manage the emotions of others has been identified as important life skill and antecedent to personal, social, and professional success. While the dimensionality of EI has been explored extensively in Western contexts, there is a relative dearth of research in post-Soviet and Central Asian contexts. Methodology:Building upon the EI instrumentation developed in Russia by Lyusin and a large sample of adolescents (N= 658) from 12 schools, we find very little differences in average levels of EI in the schools sampled. Thereafter, using first-order confirmatory factor analysis, this study finds evidence for a Four-Factor Model of EI inclusive of Understanding and Managing One’s Own Emotions, and Understanding and Managing Others’ Emotions. Results:The model exhibits adequate model fit, discriminant validity, interfactor correlations similar to those in other studies, and is strongly invariant for gender (though partially invariant for language). We also find evidence for female adolescents exhibiting slightly higher levels of Understanding Other’s Emotions, and lower levels of Managing Own Emotions. Conclusions:The four-factor model may be a useful tool for gauging the EI of adolescents, though further research as to its utility in other post-Soviet, Central Asian, and other contexts is required.

    The role of propensity to moral disengagement in the predictionof non-ethics outcomes at work
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Ramos-Villagrasa, Pedro J.; Fernández-del-Río, Elena; Reig-Botella, Adela; Clemente, Miguel
    There is a strong evidencesupporting the influence of propensi-ty to moral disengagement (PMD) on ethical outcomes at work. Complementing previous research, this study analyzes the relationship of PMD with Big Five and Dark Tetrad personality traits, and if PMD predicts out-comes that have no ethical basis but are relevant to organizational success (i.e., task performance, adaptive performance, and work engagement). The design was cross-sectional. A total of 405 employees from different organizations being involved in the study, filling a questionnaire with the variables of interest. All workers voluntarily agreed to participate and were informed about the study, their role as participants, and the confidentiality of their responses. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlations analysis and hierarchical regression analyses.The results show that: (1) Big Five and the Dark Tetrad are determinants of PMD; (2) PDM predicts task performance, adaptive performan

    Psychometric Properties of the Irrational Beliefs Scale for Insomnia (IBSI) in Turkish Emerging Adults
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Kabadayı, Fedai; Kılıç, Sabire; Yazıcı-Kabadayı, Sema
    The present study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of the Irrational Beliefs Scale for Insomnia (IBSI) in Turkish emerging adults. The measurement instrument aims to assess irrational beliefs by measuring four core irrational beliefs (demandingness, awfulizing, frustration intolerance, and global evolution of worth). A total of 762 emerging adults (556 female, 206 male) between the ages of 19 and 28 were included in all stages of the study. The results indicated that the IBSI, consisting of 4 dimensions and 24 items, is valid and reliable according to the results of EFA, CFA, and network analysis. The calculated Cronbach's α and McDonald's ω showed that the instrument was satisfactory. The results provide strong evidence that the IBSI is a valid and reliable instrument for Turkish emerging adults

    ¿Las motivaciones sociales predicen la adicción a las redes sociales en los jóvenes? El papel del flujo y la conciencia algorítmica
    (Universidad de Murcia. Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Wang, Xin; Guo, Yin
    El uso adictivo de las redes sociales se ha convertido en un fenómeno cada vez más relevante entre los jóvenes, afectando tanto a su bienestar psicológico como a su comportamiento online. El objetivo principal de este estudio es investigar las asociaciones entre el uso adictivo de las redes sociales, las motivaciones de uso, el flujo y el conocimiento de los algoritmos. Nuestra hipótesis es que la experiencia de flujo y la conciencia del algoritmo son dos mediadores a través de los cuales motivaciones sociales relevantes influyen en el desarrollo de una adicción a las redes sociales. Se utilizan cuestionarios validados para medir las variables del estudio, incluido el BSMAS para evaluar la adicción a las redes sociales. El modelado de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM) con pruebas Bootstrap se utiliza para analizar los datos recopilados de una muestra de 580 usuarios más jóvenes de entre 18 y 22 años en China (M= 20.61, SD= 1.32), con un 47.7% de mujeres y un 52.2% d
