    Cutoff scores for workplace bullying: The Spanish Short-Negative Acts Questionnaire (S-NAQ)
    (Psicothema, 2019) León-Pérez, José M.; Sánchez Iglesias, Iván; Rodríguez Muñoz, Alfredo; Notelaers, Guy
    Background: Workplace bullying is considered a major social stressor at work. However, in the Spanish context, there is a lack of measures that allow researchers and practitioners to distinguish between non-targets and targets of workplace bullying. Method: This study reports the psychometric properties, factor structure, and cutoff scores for the Short-Negative Acts Questionnaire (S-NAQ) in a Spanish sample (N = 1,409). Results: The S-NAQ demonstrated adequate psychometric properties. Moreover, both Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis revealed that a unifactorial model of workplace bullying fit the data best. Two cutoff points for the S-NAQ were formulated using receiver operating characteristic curves to categorize respondents as “not exposed to workplace bullying” (scores below 15), “at risk of being bullied” (scores between 15 and 22), and “targets of workplace bullying” (scores above 22). Conclusions: These cutoff scores may help researchers and practitioners in diagnosing workplace bullying and designing intervention strategies.

    Is it me or us? The impact of individual and collective participation on work engagement and burnout in a cluster-randomized organisational intervention
    (Work & Stress, 2021) Nielsen, Karina; Antino, Mirko; Rodríguez Muñoz, Alfredo; Sanz-Vergel, Ana
    Participation is generally recommended when implementing organisational interventions, however, understanding how participation works remains understudied. In a cluster- randomised, controlled intervention employing a wait-list control design, we explore whether perceptions of individual or collective participation had the greatest impact on a participatory organisational intervention’s outcomes; work engagement and burnout. We conducted the study in the Danish postal service (N=330). Using multi-level analyses, we found that perceptions of individual participation predicted improvements in work engagement and reductions in burnout post-intervention, however, these relationships became non- significant after including perceptions of being part of a collective participatory process in the model. Our findings add to the understanding of the role participation and in particular, perceptions of a collective participatory intervention process, plays in ensuring interventions achieve their intended outcomes.

    Short-term trajectories of workplace bullying and its impact on strain: A latent class growth modeling approach
    (Journal of Occupational Health Psychology, 2020) Rodríguez Muñoz, Alfredo; Antino, Mirko; Ruiz-Zorrilla Blanco, Paula; Sanz-Vergel, Ana; Bakker, Arnold
    The aim of this weekly diary study was (a) to identify trajectories of workplace bullying over time and (b) to examine the association of each cluster with strain indicators (i.e., insomnia and anxiety/depression). A sample of 286 employees during 4 weeks of data was used (N occasions = 1,144). Results of latent class growth modeling showed that 3 trajectories could be identified: a nonbullying trajectory, which comprised 90.9% of the sample; an inverted U trajectory; and a delayed increase bullying trajectory; the latter two each had 4.2% of the participants. We found a significant interaction between time and trajectories when predicting insomnia and anxiety/depression, with each strain showing a differential pattern with each trajectory. It seems that the negative effects on insomnia are long-lasting and remain after bullying has already decreased. In the case of anxiety and depression, when bullying decreases strain indicators also decrease. In this study, by examining trajectories of bullying at work over time and their associations with strain, we provide new insights into the temporal dynamics of workplace bullying.

    The role of job insecurity and work-family conflict on mental health evolution during COVID-19 lockdown
    (European Journal of Work and Organizational Psychology, 2022) Antino, Mirko; Ruiz-Zorrilla Blanco, Paula; Sanz-Vergel, Ana; Leon-Perez, Jose Maria; Rodríguez Muñoz, Alfredo
    The aim of this intensive longitudinal study was (1) to explore the temporal evolution of two mental health indicators (anxiety and depressive symptoms, and insomnia) throughout COVID-19 lockdown in Spain, and (2) to examine its association with two work-related stressors (job insecurity and work-family conflict). A sample of 1519 participants responded to several questionnaires during the lockdown (between 16 March and 29 April 2020). Results of latent growth modelling showed a curvilinear increase of our two mental health indicators over time (a logarithmic growth for anxiety and depression, accentuated during the first part of the lockdown, and a quadratic growth for insomnia, accentuated during the second part). Regarding its association with work-related stressors, we found that higher levels of job insecurity and work-family conflict were related to higher levels of anxiety, depression, and insomnia. Additionally, we found a significant interaction between time and the two forms of work-family conflict (work-to-home and home-to-work), showing that people with more work-family conflict experienced stronger growth in all mental-health indicators. Overall, this study contributes to the description of the temporal dynamics of mental health during the COVID-19 outbreak in Spain, as well as its association with two key work-related stressors.

    Jobless and Burnt Out: Digital Inequality and Online Access to the Labor Market
    (Social Inclusion, 2023) Antino, Mirko; Martínez Cantos, José Luis; Rodríguez Muñoz, Alfredo; De Marco, Stefano; Guillaume Dumont; Ellen Johanna Helsper; Alejandro Díaz-Guerra
    This article examines how inequalities in digital skills shape the outcomes of online job‐seeking processes. Building on a representative survey of Spanish job seekers, we show that people with high digital skill levels have a greater probability of securing a job online, because of their ability to create a coherent profile and make their application visible. Additionally, it is less probable that they will experience burnout during this process than job seekers with low digital skill levels. Given the concentration of digital skills amongst people with high levels of material and digital resources, we conclude that the internet enforces existing material and health inequalities.

    Evaluación de la usabilidad de “Microsoft Teams”: herramienta para el aprendizaje grupal?
    (2022) Antino, Mirko; Rodríguez Muñoz, Alfredo; Ruiz-Zorrilla Blanco, Paula; Sánchez Iglesias, Iván; Reyes Luján, Juan José
    La herramienta de Microsoft Teams es descrita por sus creadores como “una aplicación de colaboración”, la cual permite a un equipo de personas reunirse de forma virtual, enviar mensajes a través de un chat, compartir archivos y conversaciones en distintos canales, planificar distintos eventos a través de un calendario e integrar otras aplicaciones a las funciones anteriores. Por todo eso, se trata de una herramienta multifunción, diseñada para facilitar el trabajo en remoto de un equipo de personas. En este contexto, el presente proyecto tiene como objeto evaluar la usabilidad, tanto individual como colectiva, de esta herramienta
