AI Article Synopsis

  • Interest in measuring organizational justice is increasing due to its impact on well-being and emotional exhaustion, with the Organizational Justice Scale (OJS) showing strong psychometric properties in Spain's hotel industry.
  • A study involving 849 employees from various sectors utilized exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses to confirm the structure and reliability of the OJS.
  • Findings support a three-factor structure (distributive, procedural, and interactional justice) and indicate positive links between organizational justice perception and well-being, while being negatively correlated with emotional exhaustion, validating the OJS as a useful tool in research and practice.

Article Abstract

Background: Interest in measuring the perception of organizational justice has been growing in recent years due to its proven ability to produce significant organizational outcomes such as well-being and emotional exhaustion. In Spain, the Organizational Justice Scale (OJS) can be highlighted as an instrument which has shown good psychometric properties in previous research in the hotel industry. This study provides further evidence of the characteristics of the OJS using a large multi-sectorial sample.

Method: Participants comprised 849 employees from different occupational sectors. The structure of the OJS was studied by means of an exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis splitting the sample up into two random subsamples. The reliability and validity of each dimension was also analyzed.

Results: Results indicated a three-factorial structure: distributive, procedural, and interactional, offering adequate reliability and validity. As expected, positive correlations were found between perception of organizational justice and well-being, and negative correlations with respect to emotional exhaustion.

Conclusions: OJS is an appropriate tool for use by researchers and practitioners in the study of the perception of organizational justice in Spain, additionally ensuring adequate validity and reliability.

Adolescents and young adults are considered a high-risk group for internet gaming disorder (IGD). Early screening for high-risk individuals with IGD and exploring the underlying neural mechanisms is an effective strategy to reduce the harm of IGD. We recruited 219 non-internet gaming addicted college students and evaluated them with magnetic resonance imaging, followed by a two-year longitudinal follow-up.

Section 19(2) of the Health Insurance Act 1973 Prevents Prisoners Accessing Medicare: Fact or Fiction?

J Law Med

November 2024

Manager & Senior Solicitor (Grade V) | Combined Civil Law Specialist Team | Human Rights Group Legal Aid NSW.

This article explores the origins and operation of s 19(2) of the Health Insurance Act 1973 (Cth) and argues that it may not now and may never have created a barrier to Medicare access for prisoners as is commonly thought. Advocates have long asked for a s 19(2) exemption to allow Medicare access in custody. However, even if such an exemption were granted, it may not provide the access to Medicare necessary to have meaningful benefit for prisoners and may have other unintended consequences.

Is the Time Right to Enact Autonomy-Only Assisted Dying Laws?

J Law Med

November 2024

Associate Professor (Law) School of Law and Justice, University of Southern Queensland.

An increasing number of jurisdictions worldwide have enacted assisted dying laws allowing persons to end their lives with assistance. All existing frameworks have in common that they restrict access to persons who (1) act autonomously and (2) suffer from certain illnesses. The second restriction has been criticised on the basis that it makes judgments about which lives are worth living by only allowing persons with specific medical conditions, but not others, to die with assistance.
