“…These findings are congruent with the observations of Schoch and her group in their investigation regarding the effects of stress in men aged 40-75 years. They ruled out that VE was positively associated with work-related stress, specifically work overload, excessive demands at work, and work discontent (Schoch et al, 2018). Another research done among off-shore workers assigned in the North Sea and Southeastern Asia corroborates with the outcomes of this study.…”

The offshore environment is a high-risk and demanding workplace exposing crew members to various physical and psychological stressors. Health and safety programs are implemented to prevent accidents and promote well-being among personnel. This study aims to determine the association between vital exhaustion and psychosocial health among offshore workers in the Philippines. Quantitative non-experimental descriptive correlational design was used and standardized questionnaires namely: Maastricht Vital Exhaustion (MVEQ) and Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaires (COPSOQ III) were utilized to gather data from fifty-five respondents (54 male; Mage = 42.69). Majority of them are assigned in the maintenance and marine departments with an average offshore experience of 11.69 years. Offshore workers have low vital exhaustion (VE) levels and good psychosocial health (PH) scores. Highest recorded scores for PH fall under Influence and Development, Outcome Scales and Interpersonal relations and leadership. Lower mean scores in Further Parameters and Demands at work also translate to favourable PH. There was a significant relationship among four PH scales and VE levels of respondents. There was also a significant relationship between VE and the demographic profile of offshore workers in terms of job assignment and work type however there was no significant association between PH and all demographic variables considered in the study. Majority of the participants claimed that environmental conditions are well-designed and safety concerns are managed appropriately in the workplace. The responses from offshore personnel provide a clear picture of their overall health. The resilience and camaraderie among the all-Filipino crew played a major role in keeping their VE levels low and promoting good PH scores.

“…Vital exhaustion refers to a state of unusual fatigue, lack of energy, irritability, and feelings of demoralization and is considered a potential early warning sign of cardiovascular disease ( Appels and Mulder, 1989 ). Whereas the process of vital exhaustion is not yet fully understood, it may result from a failed adaptation to chronic stress ( Schoch et al, 2018 ) and is closely related to the concept of burnout. Women generally report higher levels of vital exhaustion than men, which may be due to psychological and physiological sex differences in the stress response ( Prescott et al, 2003 ; Verma et al, 2011 ; Frestad and Prescott, 2017 ).…”

Longitudinal Associations Between Core Self-Evaluation, Vital Exhaustion and Hair Cortisol in Teachers and the Mediating Effects of Resignation Tendency

et al. 2022

Work-related stress appears to be especially high among teachers. However, most research on teacher stress relies exclusively on teachers’ self-reports. Little is known about the physiological correlates of affective stress in teachers. This longitudinal study investigates the relationship between core self-evaluation and adverse psychological and physiological stress outcomes in 42 teachers. Self-report questionnaires were used to assess core self-evaluation, vital exhaustion, and resignation tendency. The concentration of cortisol was assessed using hair samples. One year after the initial measurement, vital exhaustion and hair cortisol were assessed again. Path-analytic mediational models showed that core self-evaluation strongly predicted vital exhaustion, and resignation tendency partially mediated this relationship. However, core self-evaluation did not predict hair cortisol concentration. These findings suggest that core self-evaluation plays a crucial role in preventing vital exhaustion among teachers. A positive core self-evaluation seems beneficial for teachers’ primary and secondary appraisal and an essential resource for the long-term prevention of self-reported vital exhaustion.

“…Hopefully the proposed model and the parameters involved might help in the research areas of implicit motives and affective neurosciences (Hall et al, 2010) and in practical applications (chronic stress, social support, and vital exhaustion) contributing to a better understanding of the individual differences in the experiences of stress and support, and the development of stress-related psychological health outcomes, as has been demanded for different researchers (Schoch et al, 2018;Schultheiss and Köllner, 2021).…”

“…There is evidence of the biopsychological correlates of IM through the hormonal aspects of them and how they function in immune system affecting vulnerability to illness (Hall et al, 2010). Our research proposes a model with parameters that builds on this investigation through practical applications that have been recently studied such as chronic stress, social support and vital exhaustion (Schoch et al, 2018).…”

Implicit Motives (IM) are non-conscious needs that drive humanbehavior towards the achievement of incentives that are affectivelyincited. Repeated affective experiences providing satisfying rewardshave been held responsible of the Implicit Motives building. Re-sponses to rewarding experiences have a biological basis via close con-nections with neurophysiological systems controlling neurohormonerelease. We propose an iteration random function system acting ina metric space to model experience-reward interactions. This modelis based on key facts of IM theory reported in a broad number ofstudies. The model shows how (random) responses produced by in-termittent random experiences create a well-defined probability distri-bution on an attractor, thus providing an insight into the underlyingmechanism leading to the emergence of IM psychological structures.Implicit Motives robustness and resilience properties appear theoret-ically explained by the model. The model also provides uncertaintyentropy-like parameters to characterize the Implicit Motives whichhopefully might be useful, beyond the mere theoretical frame, whenused in combination with neurophysiological methods.
