One primary reason entrepreneurs abandon their goals is due to financial difficulties. In one experimental and two field studies, we found a positive relationship between financial stress and quit intention, mediated by affective commitment to their entrepreneurial endeavors. The findings are in line with the challenge–hindrance stressor (CHS) framework and self-determination theory (SDT).
According to transactional stress theory (TST), entrepreneurs’ coping strategies depend on viewing errors as challenges or threats. This study uses latent profile analysis to explore distinct profiles of challenge and threat appraisals among entrepreneurs. The findings reveal five appraisal profiles that highlight differences in error damage control and rumination, suggesting improvements for TST and error management interventions.
We conducted a study on the predictors of using AI-enabled mental health tools among psychology students and early practitioners.
Our review of AI-enabled precision psychiatry patents published between 2015 and mid-October 2022, now published in Computers in Human Behavior Reports. Multiple analytic approaches, such as graphic network analysis and topic modeling, are used to analyze the scope, content, and trends of the retained patents. The tools described aim to provide diagnosis, prediction of treatment responses, and prognosis of mental disorder symptoms. Additionally, about one-third of the tools suggest treatment options related to selection, adjustment, and management. The complexity of technology combinations has increased over the years. This review highlights the potential of AI-enabled precision psychiatry tools for adoption in practice.
Thriving at work has been defined as employees’ joint sense of vitality and learning. Based on the socially embedded model of thriving at work, we examine several competing operationalizations of thriving at work. We hypothesize effects of (a) composite thriving, (b) separate vitality and learning scores, and (c) the interaction between vitality and learning, and we explore effects of (d) the congruence between vitality and learning on self-rated physical and mental health.
