“…That resonates with holistic models of health and health promotion mentioned in a public health context, which include a whole array of factors influencing health in the shape of determinants (Erk, 2011 ; Hanson, 2004 ; Korp, 2016 ; Pellmer et al, 2012 ; Scriven, 2013 ; www.who.int ). When it comes to articles, the plurality relation often invoked in papers addressing the overall topic of health as frame of reference (Boers & Cruz Jentoft, 2015 ; Burkert et al, 2015 ; Jaberi et al, 2019 ; Pons-Vigués et al, 2017 ; Svalastog et al, 2017 ), comparable to the focus on well-being in articles representing the quality relation.…”

“…The subjectivity/objectivity relation is mentioned in most teaching materials (except Pellmer et al, 2012 and Scriven, 2013 ), the majority of articles (Agenor et al, 2017 ; Bergland & Kirkevold, 2001 ; Brülde, 2000 ; Burkert et al, 2015 ; Grundmann, 2014 ; Jaberi et al, 2019 ; Kahn & Juster, 2002 ; Kimiecik, 2011 ; Kingma et al, 2011 ; Sointu, 2006 ) as well as in the results of the Google-search. An example for the subjectivity/objectivity relation is the presentation of so-called health-cross as mentioned in three references (Hallberg, 2010 ; Hanson, 2004 ; Korp, 2016 ).…”

Purpose: Although the relation between health and well-being is deemed conceptually important, it is diverse and intractable. The aim of this small-scale study is to reveal different possible relations of the concepts of health and well-being, interrelation of these relations and consequences of implied normative expectations in the relations. Method: Primary data originate from course literature in Swedish health education. Additional data included scientific articles and website content (collected from WHO and via Google) and were analysed with objective hermeneutics. Results: Congruent, complementary and coincident relations were found. In congruence, health and well-being are synonyms. Complement relations contain: "quality" with well-being as overall aim, "plurality" with health as umbrella term, "well-being as positive health", "enhancement" with health and well-being potentially boosting each other and "subjectivity/objectivity" with objective health complemented by subjective well-being. In coincidence, health and well-being are counter-intuitively regarded unlinked, which may challenge expectations concerning health promotive activities. Independent and affiliated relations were identified. Conclusion:In congruence and complement, health and well-being are mostly aligned whereas in coincidence, their quality may be decoupled. In the discursive climate of second modernity, the relation of health and well-being tends to conflict and ambiguous coincidence, demanding ambiguity tolerance as key skill.

“…This so-called person-centred approach (in contrast to the variable-centred approach; see Muthén & Muthén, 2000) focuses on similarities or relationships among individuals (rather than relationships among variables) and can serve to reveal the unobserved heterogeneity within the population and to identify a typology of health problems within the working context. Burkert et al (2015), for example, used both negative (e.g., psychosomatic ailments, back pain, irritation) and positive (e.g., self-efficacy, social orientation and participation, spiritual meaning) health indicators, in order to identify a health typology within a large sample of wage and salary earners. They revealed four distinct health clusters: (1) a cluster of physically healthy wage and salary earners with signs of mental issues such as demotivation and a limited desire to grow, (2) an overall healthy cluster (i.e., few health impairments and high levels of positive health indicators), (3) a cluster with a high tendency to wear out (i.e., increased levels of psychological impairments such as burnout symptoms), and (4) a cluster with multiple health issues and low levels of positive health indicators.…”

BackgroundWhile evidence highlights the detrimental health consequences of adverse working conditions, effect sizes vary by the stressor examined. In this study, we aimed to explore the differential effects various constellations of job demands have on prevalent symptom clusters.MethodsWe analysed self-reported data from a nationwide Austrian survey (N = 16,466), based on a cross-sectional design. By means of latent class analysis, a set of items was used to assess the burden from several job demands as well as the frequency of occurrence of mental and physical symptoms in order to identify stress profiles and symptom clusters, respectively.ResultsAnalysis revealed four subgroups that each demonstrated a typological response pattern regarding job demands and health symptoms, respectively. The revealed stress profiles were found to be strongly related to the symptom clusters, while the effects differed considerably depending on the types of demands experienced.ConclusionThe current study presents an alternative method of examining the stress-health link by using a combined person- and variable-centred approach. The findings suggest a hierarchy in stress exposure with the most pronounced health consequences found for a synchronous burden from physical, psychosocial and organizational demands.
