Item PERSONALITY TRAITS, WORK FAMILY BALANCE AND BURNOUT IN PRACTICING PSYCHOLOGISTS(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2022) Maryam Javed; FA14-BPSY-005; Zainab Raza; LHR TP 5407The purpose of the current study is to investigate the relationship between personality traits, work family balance, and burnout in practicing psychologists. It was hypothesized that there is a relationship between personality traits, work family balance, and burnout in practicing psychologists. Moreover, personality traits would moderate the relationship of work family balance and burnout in practicing psychologists. A correlational research design was used in this study. The sample comprised of 60 psychologists; and was taken from Lahore though purposive and snowball sampling technique. The Ten Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) (Gosling, Rentfrow, & Swann, 2003); Work Family Balance Measure (Carlson & Grzywacz, 2007); and Copenhagen Burnout Inventory (CBI) (Kristesen, Borritz, Villadsen, & Christensen, 2005) were used to assess the personality traits, work family balance, and burnout respectively. Pearson product movement correlation analysis and hierarchal regression model were used to assess study objectives. The results showed that work family balance was negatively correlated with burnout. Moreover, age was negatively correlated with client related burnout. Furthermore, the findings indicated that personality trait (conscientiousness) moderates the relationship of work family balance and burnout. Limitations, implications, and future directions of the current study were discussed.Item PERSONALITY TRAITS, WORK FAMILY BALANCE AND BURNOUT IN PRACTICING PSYCHOLOGISTS(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2018) Maryam Javed; FA14-BPSY-005; Ms. Zainab Raza; LHR TP 5407The purpose of the current study is to investigate the relationship between personality traits, work family balance, and burnout in practicing psychologists.

It was hypothesized that sleep disturbance would have a positive relationship with aggression and healthy food habits would have a negative relationship with aggression. A secondary hypothesis was formulated that cognitive control would mediate the relationship of sleep disturbance and food habits with aggression. To conduct the study, a correlational research design was used. The sample of the study comprised of 157 adolescents in age range of 12-18 years; they were selected from secondary and higher secondary grades from different private and government schools and colleges of Lahore. The sample were selected through cluster random sampling technique. The Adolescent Food Habits Checklist, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Color word interference test taken from Delis Kaplan Executive functions system (D-KEFS; Delis, Kaplan, & Kramer, 2001), and Aggression Scale (Mathur & Bhatnagar, 2004) were used to assess the healthy food habits, sleep disturbance, level of cognitive control, and the level of aggression respectively. Pearson product movement correlation analysis and mediation model using Baron and Kenny’s guidelines were calculated to assess study objectives. The results showed that sleep disturbance were positively correlated with aggression and healthy food habits were negatively correlated with aggression. Moreover, the healthy food habits were negatively correlated with error measure of cognitive control (more errors represented poor cognitive control). Furthermore, the findings indicated that cognitive control (error measure) mediated the link between healthy food habits and aggression (Soble z test = -1.74, p <.05). Limitations, implications, and future directions of the current study were discussed.Item PARENTAL PRACTICES AS A PREDICTOR OF SELF-REGULATION AND SOCIAL COMPETENCE AMONG ADOLESCENTS(Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2018) Tooba Kanwal; SP14-BSPSY-007; Dr Shameem Fatima; LHR TP 5404The objective of this study is to assess the direct and indirect relationships between parental practices (punishment and reward), self regulation, and social competence among adolescents. To conduct the study, a sample of 194 adolescents, ranging in age from 12 to 17 years (M age =14.53, Sd = 1.04), were selected from different schools. It was hypothesized that parental punishment would be significantly negatively correlated with self regulation and social competence; and parental reward would be significantly positively correlated with self regulation and social competence. A secondary hypothesis was to assed whether self regulation mediate the relationship between parental punishment and social competence; and whether self regulation mediates the relationship between parental reward and social competence. The random sampling technique was used to approach the participants. The four susbcales taken from Parent-Child Relationship Scale (Rao, 2000) namely symbolic punishment, object punishment, symbolic reward, and object reward, and social competence, Teen Survey (Child Trends for the Flourishing Children Project), and self regulation scale (Schwarzer, Diehl & Schmitz, 1999) were used to assess parenting practices of punishment and reward, self regulation and social competence respectively. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and Mediation analysis using SPSS and Process software. Results showed that specific parenting practices were significantly correlated with self regulation and social. Results from mediation analyses indicated that self regulation mediated the relationship of mother physical reward and father object punishment with social competence among adolescents. It is concluded that punishment and reward are important factors in adolescent psychological and social adjustment
