Workplace Climate and stem faculty women s job burnout
Journal of Feminist Family Therapy, 2017Co-Authors: Daphne E. Pedersen, Krista Lynn MinnotteAbstract:ABSTRACTWe examine aspects of the Workplace Climate associated with job burnout among STEM university faculty: access to information, faculty influence in decision-making, scholarly isolation, coworker social support, and interpersonal conflict. Data were taken from a survey of faculty in STEM departments at a midsized Midwestern university (N = 117). While controlling for rank and tenure status, STEM faculty—particularly women—who reported less access to information needed to do their jobs and greater interpersonal conflict reported higher job burnout. Implications for universities, as well as therapeutic interventions for professionals working with STEM faculty or as consultants with faculty groups, are discussed.

the Climate for women in academic science the good the bad and the changeable
Psychology of Women Quarterly, 2006Co-Authors: Isis H Settles, Lilia M Cortina, Janet E Malley, Abigail J StewartAbstract:Deficits theory posits that women scientists have not yet achieved parity with men scientists because of structural aspects of the scientific environment that provide them with fewer opportunities and more obstacles than men. The current study of 208 faculty women scientists tested this theory by examining the effect of personal negative experiences and perceptions of the Workplace Climate on job satisfaction, felt influence, and productivity. Hierarchical multiple regression results indicated that women scientists experiencing more sexual harassment and gender discrimination reported poorer job outcomes. Additionally, perceptions of a generally positive, nonsexist Climate, as well as effective leadership, were related to positive job outcomes after controlling for harassment and discrimination. We discuss implications for the retention and career success of women in academic science.

approaches to learning at work and Workplace Climate
International Journal of Training and Development, 2003Co-Authors: John R. Kirby, Christopher Knapper, Christina J Evans, Allan E Carty, Carla GadulaAbstract:Three studies are reported concerning employees' approaches to learning at work and their perceptions of the Workplace environment. Based on prior research with university students, two questionnaires were devised, the Approaches to Work Questionnaire (AWQ) and the Workplace Climate Questionnaire (WCQ). In Studies 1 and 2, these questionnaires were administered to two different samples of employees, and the factor structure of the questionnaires was explored. In Study 3, the two data sets were combined, and a random half of it was used to develop reduced sets of items that addressed selected factors for each of the questionnaires. The other half of the data was used to test the scales developed. For the AWQ, three factors are proposed: deep, surface-rational, and surface-disorganised. The first of these is consistent with the student learning literature, but the other two represent a division of a unitary surface factor. The three components of the WCQ are good supervision, choice-independence, and workload. Correlations between scales indicated that the deep approach is positively associated with good supervision and choice-independence, whereas the surface-disorganised approach is negatively associated with these two constructs and positively associated with workload. Surface-rational is negatively, though less strongly associated with choice-independence. Suggestions are presented for use of these instruments in future research and practice.

Development Of The Approaches To Work And Workplace Climate Questionnaires For Physicians
Evaluation & the health professions, 2003Co-Authors: John R. Kirby, M Dianne Delva, Christopher Knapper, Richard BirtwhistleAbstract:Two questionnaires were developed to investigate the Workplace learning of physicians. The Approaches to Work Questionnaire for Physicians and the Workplace Climate Questionnaire for Physicians were adapted from general measures developed by Kirby, Knapper, Evans, Carty, and Gadula. These questionnaires were administered to a random sample of Ontario physicians. Consistent with the results of Kirby et al., three dimensions of approaches to work were observed: Deep, Surface-Rational, and Surface-Disorganized. Three dimensions of Workplace Climate were also found, Supportive-Receptive, Choice-Independence, and Workload. Results indicate that physicians adopt primarily a Deep approach to work, but that there is a smaller tendency toward Surface-Disorganized learning, one that is strongly correlated with perceptions of heavy workload. The Deep approach was associated with work environments perceived to be Supportive-Receptive and offer Choice-Independence. The use of these questionnaires in research and pract...

Postal survey of approaches to learning among Ontario physicians: implications for continuing medical education
BMJ (Clinical research ed.), 2002Co-Authors: M Dianne Delva, John R. Kirby, Christopher Knapper, Richard BirtwhistleAbstract:Abstract Objectives: To understand the approaches to learning of practising physicians in their Workplace and to assess the relation of these approaches to their motivation for, preferred methods of, and perceived barriers to continuing medical education. Design: Postal survey of 800 Ontario physicians. Participants: 373 physicians who responded. Main outcome measures: Correlations of approaches to learning and perceptions of Workplace Climate with methods, motives, and barriers to continuing medical education. Results: Perceived heavy workload was significantly associated with the surface disorganised (r=0.463, P Conclusions: Perception of the Workplace Climate affects physicians9 approaches to learning at work and their motivation for and perceived barriers to continuing medical education. Younger, rural, family physicians may be most vulnerable to feeling overworked and adopting less effective approaches to learning. Further work is required to determine if changing the Workplace environment will help physicians learn more effectively. What is already known on this topic Throughout their careers physicians face enormous challenges in managing the growth of medical knowledge Students who perceive choice, independence, and good teaching at university take a deep, integrative approach to learning whereas those who feel overworked or overwhelmed tend to learn by rote What this study adds Feeling overwhelmed at work is associated with a disorganised and superficial approach to learning and perception of many barriers to continuing medical education Physicians who believe they have choice, independence, and support in their work take a deep approach to learning, are internally motivated, and use independent learning methods Younger, rural, and family physicians are most likely to feel overworked

Examining the Relationship Among Teachers' Working Conditions, Stress, and Professional Trajectory
Handbook of Research on Professional Development for Quality Teaching and Learning, 1Co-Authors: Paul G. Fitchett, Sally Lineback, Christopher J. Mccarthy, Richard G. LambertAbstract:Teacher attrition can have a disruptive effect within a school, negatively impacting student learning. Moreover, teachers' reported working conditions are an important factor in determining whether they leave or stay within the field. The majority of research examining Workplace Climate in schools fails to consider the perceptual nature of these reports and how they might be related to teachers' risk for stress and other occupational health measures. This chapter provides an overview of the research relating teacher working conditions to teacher mobility and other Workplace dispositions. Then, the authors present the transactional stress model as an alternative to traditional approaches for examining teacher mobility. Policy implications for educational agencies, schools, and teacher education are then presented.
