  • Primary Social Factors and smoking in Korean adolescents
    Journal of Public Health, 2020
    Co-Authors: Eunmee Lee, Amy M. Kwon
    Abstract:

    Aim The present study aimed to examine the effects of primary Social Factors on the smoking behaviors according to the smoking stages—initiation and continuation—among Korean adolescents. Subject and methods We used the clustered logistic regression method to examine whether the primary Social Factors significantly influence smoking behaviors among Korean adolescents at two different stages with a cross-sectional study for 9 years. Results We found that primary Social Factors significantly influenced adolescent smoking in both stages, and peer effects for adolescent smoking were much clearer in the smoking continuation stage. In addition, adolescents initiating smoking early tend to continue their smoking with high probability. Conclusion The impacts of primary Social Factors are robust on adolescent smoking, particularly in the smoking continuation stage.

  • Influence of psycho-Social Factors on climacteric symptoms.
    Maturitas, 2004
    Co-Authors: Lorena Binfa, Camil Castelo-branco, Juan E. Blümel, María Jesús Cancelo, Hilda Bonilla, Ingrid G. Muñoz, Vivian G. Vergara, Humberto Izaguirre, Salvador Sarrá, Rodrigo Villegas Rı́os
    Abstract:

    It has been suggested that psycho-Social Factors may be crucial in the development of climacteric symptoms. In order to evaluate the effect of psycho-Social and biological Factors on menopausal symptoms, Greene (climacterical symptoms), Cooper (psychosomatic symptoms of stress), Smilkstein (family dysfunction), Duke-UNC (Social support) and Israel (life events) tests were passed to 300 Chilean women between 40 and 59 years of age. Data were evaluated with ANOVA, chi2 and logistic regression using the Epi-info package. Perimenopausal women had a significant increase in stress and climacteric symptoms; however comparing with pre and postmenopausal women, tests for life events, family dysfunction or Social support did not show any differences. A history of premenstrual syndrome was the main risk predictor f or climacteric symptoms (OR: 3.6, IC: 1.5-8.5; P < 0.03 ), followed by perimenopausal state (OR: 2.9, IC: 1.4-6.0; P < 0.001 ) and negative life events (OR: 2.3, IC: 1.0-5.3; P < 0.05 ). The psycho-Social Factors were predictors for anxiety and depression; on the other hand, perimenopausal state was a risk factor for somatic and vasomotor symptoms. During premenopause, women with regular cycles and vasomotor symptoms have more psychological symptoms and stress. Climacteric symptoms that appear in the perimenopause are more intense in those women who have a biological predisposition such as premenstrual syndrome and are modulated by psycho-Social Factors.

  • The Impact of Social Factors on Job Crafting: A Meta-Analysis and Review
    International journal of environmental research and public health, 2020
    Co-Authors: Huatian Wang, Shi Chen
    Abstract:

    Despite the considerable focus on job characteristics and individual differences in job crafting research, the influence of Social Factors on job crafting has not been well-acknowledged. Based on Social interaction and job crafting literature, this meta-analysis estimates the associations between Social Factors (i.e., organizational insiders and outsiders) and job crafting, and how these Social Factors contribute to employee outcomes through their job crafting. Based on a sample of 51 empirical studies that included 54 independent samples (N = 17,863), we found that Social Factors of positive leadership styles (e.g., empowering and transformational) and coworker support were positively related to employee job crafting. Moreover, leadership showed a stronger correlation with employee job crafting than coworker support and Leader-Member-Exchange (LMX). Further, our study showed that employee job crafting positively mediates the relationships between Social Factors and work outcomes (e.g., job performance and well-being). Our study contributes to job crafting literature by integrating Social Factors into the job crafting model and demonstrating that the Social context of work (in particular organizational insiders) plays a crucial role in shaping employees' job crafting behavior. We also emphasize the critical role that job crafting plays in transmitting valuable Social resources into improved work outcomes. Building on our results, we provide future direction for job crafting research and discuss how our results can imply practice in terms of job crafting training.
