Protective faith? The role of religiosity in the stressor-strain relationship in helping professions

Abstract

Working conditions in western economies keep fueling work stress and psychological ill-health among employees. Job resources as well as personal resources play important roles in alleviating the adverse outcomes. In this article, we analyze religiosity as a rather neglected personal resource and its role in the stressor–strain relationship. Five dimensions of religiosity (intellect, ideology, public practice, private practice, and experience) are tested for their buffering effect on the relationship between work stress, measured as effort-reward imbalance, and psychological strain as well as for their direct relationship with psychological strain. The sample consists of 792 helping professionals and a comparison group of 172 non-helping professionals. The results show that public practice is negatively related to psychological strain for helping professionals while none of the religiosity dimensions has an effect among non-helping professionals. A buffering effect of religiosity on the relationship between work stress and psychological strain is not observed. The results contribute to the literature on the model of effort-reward imbalance as well as religiosity in the workplace and the role of personal resources in the stress process.

DETERMINANTS OF SOUTH AFRICA‐US INTRA‐INDUSTRY TRADE IN SERVICES: A WILD BOOTSTRAP DYNAMIC PANEL DATA ANALYSIS1

The study attempts to empirically identify factors that determine South Africa–US intra‐industry trade (IIT) in selected services during the period 1994‐2002. The study utilises Liu‐Davidson‐Flachaire wild bootstrap, which is robust to heteroscedasticity and provides estimates of the degree of parameter bias. The empirical results, in principle, show that South Africa–US IIT in the selected services is determined by factors similar to goods‐based “North‐South” IIT studies. Specifically, differences in per capita income and differences in market size negatively affect IIT. The study also indicates that US foreign direct investment in South Africa positively contributes to the unaffiliated IIT in services.

中国的野生植物所有权制度与野生植物权属管理

中国长期以来没有建立起完善的野生植物所有权法律制度,只是在专门性行政法律法规中规定单位和个人开发利用和经营管理野生植物资源的活动受到保护,并规定对受保护的野生植物的权属进行管理。《物权法》实施后,立法机关应根据《物权法》对《森林法》及其实施条例、《野生植物保护条例》的有关条款修改,对野生植物所有权及权属管理制度做出明确而系统的规定,协调好野生植物开发利用与生态保护之间的关系。     

青藏铁路建设的科技突破及开通运营的巨大作用

青藏铁路格(尔木)拉(萨)段铁路全长1142km,海拔4 000m以上的地段有965km,其中多年冻土地段550km。青藏铁路建设成功地克服了高原多年冻土、高寒缺氧、生态脆弱三大难题,取得了多项世界顶尖科技突破。大力保护脆弱的生态环境,根据高原动物不同习性,铁路沿线建成三类迁徙通道。青藏铁路开通1年来,实现了安全运营,发挥了巨大经济社会效益。这条现代化陆路大通道开始发挥重要作用,进出西藏旅客与货物大幅度提升。旅游业首先受益,青藏铁路成为旅游热线;旅游业跃居西藏三产"龙头",许多农牧民受益。西藏在区域合作中的地位得以提升,招商引资呈现良好势头。青藏铁路延伸线已被列入国家西部交通设施建设重点工程。     

Running wild in the marketplace: the articulation and negotiation of an alternative food network

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we examine how actors within what we conceptualise as an emerging wild food alternative network are navigating through the foodscape to find alternatives to homogenous and standardised food products. Drawing on data from different research engagements with wild food consumers and producers over the last decade in Canada, we use the context of wild foods to explore how the ‘alternative’ is being articulated and negotiated. Inspired by scholarly work exploring the pedagogical promise of food, we also explore the transformational potential of the ‘alternative’ – how bringing wild foods to the table can both inspire and teach consumers about sustainability and alternative consumption practices. We conclude with directions for future marketing research on alternative food networks.

Seafood Purchasing Preferences of Hawaii Chefs: Comparing Actual Purchase to Stated Preferences From Conjoint Choice Experiment

This study investigated if Hawaii chefs use wild seafood products over farm-raised and local over imports. Chefs were asked to estimate their purchases for shrimp, tuna, mahimahi, and salmon. Chefs were also asked to choose products within conjoint choice experiments to indirectly determine their preferences. Price is the most important attribute for shrimp. Hawaii chefs would prefer wild and farm-raised local, fresh shrimp if it were competitively priced over low-priced imported and frozen alternatives. This result can be useful for the shrimp aquaculture industry in Hawaii. The low importance of production method when purchasing seafood should be further explored.
