Ending Relationships01:28

Ending Relationships

247
The dissolution of intimate relationships presents complex emotional and psychological challenges, particularly when emotional bonds are strong, the relationship is long-standing, and perceived alternatives are limited. This distress often intensifies in romantic breakups, where the initiator may experience greater turmoil than the rejected partner. Contributing factors include residual attachment, guilt over causing pain, and uncertainty about how to manage the situation. The stress is further...

Obedience

According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation,...

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Long-term Depression01:05

Long-term Depression

33.7K
Long-term depression, or LTD, is one of the ways by which synaptic plasticity—changes in the strength of chemical synapses—can occur in the brain. LTD is the process of synaptic weakening that occurs over time between pre and postsynaptic neuronal connections. The synaptic weakening of LTD works in opposition to synaptic strengthening by long-term potentiation (LTP) and together are the main mechanisms that underlie learning and memory.

Cognitive Dissonance

37.9K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Self-Discrepancy Theory

One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Psychology
  • Higher Education Studies

Background:

  • Faculty burnout is a growing concern in higher education.
  • Understanding the multifaceted determinants of faculty burnout is crucial for institutional support.
  • Previous research has explored individual factors, but a comprehensive view integrating time, pressure, and support is needed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the combined impact of time allocation, perceived pressure, and social support on faculty burnout.
  • To identify specific academic activities and personal time factors most strongly associated with burnout.
  • To provide evidence-based insights for developing effective institutional policies to mitigate faculty burnout.

Main Methods:

  • A quantitative study was conducted with a large sample of 1439 university faculty members.
  • Data were collected on time allocation, perceived pressure, social support (including family, sleep, and leisure time), and burnout levels.
  • Statistical analyses were employed to determine the relationships between these variables and faculty burnout.

Main Results:

  • Time allocation variables and perceived pressure were significant contributors to faculty burnout.
  • Decreased social support, family time, sleep, and leisure time correlated with increased burnout.
  • Grantsmanship and service activities emerged as the most critical factors associated with faculty burnout.

Conclusions:

  • Time management, pressure, and support systems are vital determinants of faculty burnout.
  • Institutional policies should address the demands of grantsmanship and service activities.
  • Further research and targeted interventions are necessary to support faculty well-being and prevent burnout.
