    Abstract Purpose – This study analyses the concept of happiness management based on the empirical validation of the interactions between emotional wage, organisational justice and happiness at work. It complements a holistic view of the management models used in recent corporate governance. This perspective explores the dimension’s emotional wage mediating role and influences on organisational justice and happiness at work. The effect of organisational justice on happiness at work is also analysed. Design/methodology/approach – A quantitative, cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational study is proposed. A sample of 502 workers in the education sector in Costa Rica was selected. A structural equation model (PLS-SEM) was developed to test the proposed theoretical model. The SPSS-AMOS 23 and SmartPLS 4 computer programs are used for this purpose. Findings – The results show that emotional wage has a positive impact on happiness at work and that it mediates positively between organisational justice and happiness at work. Developing organisational policies to include these variables as necessary resources for corporate governance is recommended. Research limitations/implications – The first limitation of this study is due to the type of sampling, which was purposive. The kind of population and the time of execution of this study were determining factors when deciding on the mode of application of the instrument. However, an attempt to reduce the bias associated with this element could be made by expanding the sample to as many respondents as possible. The second limitation was that the data were collected within a specific time frame. Longitudinal studies address Thcould. The third limitation stems from the scarcity of literature on happiness management. In this regard, this type of research currently needs to be explored in emerging economies. It makes it difficult to determine whether the empirical results obtained in this paper can be generalised to other territories in the global village. Moreover, the last limitation is that the authors of this research have only explored the moderating role of emotional pay in the relationship between the dimensions of organisational justice and happiness at work. It would be interesting to consider other mediating variables to have a clearer picture of the organisational justice–happiness at work construct from the happiness management approach. Practical implications – As already indicated throughout this research, emotional wage, organisational justice and happiness at work are constructs that positively drive employee satisfaction, motivation and well-being. Human talent management strategies undertaken by organisations should encourage the adaptation of actions that stimulate employees’ quality of life, corporate social responsibility and ethical management practices to be more competitive in today’s markets. It requires implementing the dynamic management models that providenternal customers with a high sense of belonging, job satisfaction and commitment to their professional performance. In other words, this will require robust leadership styles and corporate cultures that stimulate employee creativity, loyalty and innovation. For this reason, management of organisations must implement human resources policies to attract and retain creative talent through happy leadership. It requires, among other things that the philosophy of happiness management becomes a critical strategic resource for companies to promote nonfinancial benefits for employees, including emotional wage (Ruiz-Rodrıguez et al., 2023). Social implications – In the current business environment, there has been a transformation in leadership styles,motivation and the development of a sense of belonging in organisations’ human capital. Based on this trend, the study of happiness management becomes a social strategy to improve the conditions, in which the organisations compete to attract highly demanded human capital. It is why this research contributes elements that have an impact on citizenship by proposing the management models based on happiness at work and quality of life. Originality/value – This study adds to the happiness management literature by including emotional wage,organisational justice and happiness at work in human resources and strategic management. It also contributes to the academic debate on the need to formulate organisational cultures that empower workers in their professional performance based on happiness and positive emotions

    Erotic capital and employees’ happiness. Do other kinds of capital matter? An examination of the interaction effect on the Spanish workforce

    Erotic capital is currently one of latest studies capital by researchers. In this extent, other kind of capitals such as social or human capital have much more investigated, especially in relation with happiness at work. However, some studies highlight how attractiveness and beauty are an intangible asset which should be taken into account for happiness promotion at work, especially in the private sector. What is more, is that prior research highlights how an effect of a specific capital can be influenced by another kind of capital. In fact, contributions show how different capitals can interact by providing divergent effects on employees’ wellbeing. Nevertheless, surprisingly such kind of contributions are largely missing, especially those referred to employees’ happiness. Moreover, studies which consider erotic capital are almost absent. Therefore, it is important to better understand how the interaction between erotic capital and human or social capital can bring higher happiness in the workplace. While it is possible to hypothesize a positive interactive effect, recent contributions highlight how potential conflicting effect can be present. We use the Spain's General Social Survey (SGSS) carried out by the Center for Sociological Research of Spain to make a quantitative analysis through moderation regression models by using SPSS software and PROCESS package in a sample of more than 5.000 employees in Spain. Results highlights that erotic capital is an important asset to promote employees’ happiness at work. Moreover, those who experiment both erotic and social (or human capital) have higher levels of happiness. However, there are negative interactive effect between capitals, outlining potential conflicting outcomes. The results are important to understand the interactive (and conflicting) effect that different kind of capital can have on happiness. The current study fosters theoretical advancements on capitals and happiness at work, especially those referred to erotic capital, which is a current gap in the literature. Moreover, it outlines managerial recommendations in order to balance the presence of different capitals at work in order to understand and present conflicting effects. The main limitations are the cross-sectional of the dataset, as well as the context reference which is limited to the Spanish country

    Sería muy pobre el legado de la historia si está solamente sirviera para evaluar el tiempo y los acontecimientos pasados. La historia debe servir para mejorar el presente y, sobre todo, para superar en el futuro los errores pretéritos. Por otro lado, tenemos una historia que, en ocasiones, se nos presenta de manera maniquea, construida a través de un discurso excesivamente simplificado, en el que se nos hurtan con demasiada facilidad a cuestiones que, pareciendo de menor significación, son esenciales, o al menos, de destacable importancia, si es que han formado parte de una concatenación que tiene como resultado final el gran acontecimiento

    Recursos tecnológicos aplicados a un nuevo marco del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Un enfoque educativo de un proyecto sobre las representaciones culturales de paisajes

    Este texto trata de profundizar en un nuevo modelo del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje en el que se enseñe a los estudiantes como funciona su proceso de aprender. En este modelo, creemos que profesor y estudiantes pueden disfrutar del aprendizaje; la clave está en que debe aplicarse un enfoque basado en la indagación. El estudiante realiza búsquedas de información siguiendo un proceso interactivo de aprendizaje en el cuál, como protagonista, debe configurar la información que se va a encontrar asociada a lugares y que deberá buscar en archivos históricos digitales, bibliotecas virtuales, webs especializadas, filmografía, guías turísticas en Internet, redes sociales, etc. En base a ello se mostrarán hechos, lugares o referencias geográficas que son consideradas como representaciones culturales del paisaje y que pueden ser de interés general. Para ello se les provee de una herramienta para recuperar paisajes pasados en base a la recopilación de la información realizada, que combina el potencial de la tecnología 3D, ideal para la visualización de contenidos, y las producciones audiovisuales, un medio de enorme potencial para el aprendizaje. El objetivo de este trabajo es mostrar los planteamientos conceptuales y didácticos para su modelización tridimensional en reproducciones experimentales, en un proceso que parte de la recopilación de información y que termina con su integración en una base de datos con formatos digitales en 3D. Consideramos que la reconstrucción de paisajes y la modelización de escenarios a través de la organización la información es un método novedoso para el aprendizaje de conceptos sociales, culturales y geográficos. A través de los modelos generados y del conocimiento subyacente en ellos el estudiante habrá conectado el pasado con el presente mediante la indagación y explicado la historia de un lugar, un evento, una tendencia o un patrón en un contexto geográfico

    EU recovery funds: a new Marshall Plan for Europe after the pandemic?

    No full text
    This chapter looks at the European Union’s recovery funds from an economic and critical perspective. The aim is to find out whether their design, distribution, and implementation will help EU countries emerge from the pandemic crisis. To this end, we will look at the design and implementation of the funds to try to understand how they actually work and who will ltimately benefit from them. We will also reflect on the problems and contradictions that accompany them. The conclusion, necessarily tentative given the incipient stage of development of this initiative, is that it is not a sufficient tool to solve the serious problems plaguing the working class in the EU. On the contrary, these funds constitute a strategy aimed at rescuing big usiness through a massive transfer of resources that will surely lead to a new wave of austerity, the social and economic consequences of which could be dramatic.Universidad de CadizDepto. de Economía Aplicada, Estructura e HistoriaFac. de Ciencias Económicas y EmpresarialesTRUEpu

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
