Abstract:
After the seminal study of turnover, by Mobley (1977), others (Hom, Griffeth, & Sellaro, 1984, Hom & Griffeth, 1988; Steers & Mowday, 1981) have placed a major emphasis upon perceptions of the external labor market (expected utility of search and evaluation of alternatives), intentions to search, actual job search activities and the results of that search upon the turnover decision. Yet, empirical research has tended to ignore the role that the job search plays in turnover. The present study operationalized the concepts of: perceptions of the external labor market, the individuals job search and the results of the job search upon the individuals decision to quit. Subjects were 106 alumni of a branch campus of a large Midwestern university. Respondents were employed in a variety of managerial and professional positions. Data were collected through phone interviews and turnover was assessed over a thirteen-month period Turnover was accurately predicted by the evaluation of alternatives, the intention to search, the expected utility of the search and thoughts of quitting. Each accounted for unique variance in the prediction of the intention to search, the expected utility of search and quitting, and thoughts of quitting.

Abstract:
Background: Disapproval of smoking from close others, observation of others' quitting activity and denormalisation of smoking in the broader community can provide an environment that helps smokers to quit. However, it remains unclear which social norms have the greatest influence, and if there is a similar impact on quitting-related cognitions and behaviors among lower and higher socioeconomic status (SES) smokers. Aim: This study sought to examine the influence on quitting-related cognitions and behaviors of a variety of social norms: subjective (perceived disapproval of smoking among close family and friends); internalized injunctive (feeling embarrassed about being a smoker); and close descriptive norms (living in a household with someone who, successfully or unsuccessfully, tried to quit in the past 12 months). Methods: A telephone survey was conducted among 1454 Australian adult smokers between 2012 and 2014 who were followed-up ∼1 week after the baseline interview. Logistic regression analyses examined prospective associations of baseline social norms with quitting-related cognitions and behaviors at follow-up. Analyses were adjusted for baseline demographic characteristics, addiction level, tobacco control policies (cost increases, plain packaging implementation and mass media campaign exposure) and quitting-related outcomes measured at baseline. Differences in associations between lower and higher SES smokers (based on educational attainment and area-based disadvantage) were examined through interaction terms and stratified analyses. Results: Sixty-three percent of participants perceived disapproval from family and friends, 30% felt embarrassed to be a smoker, and 12% lived with a recent quitter. Baseline disapproval, embarrassment and household quitting activity were each associated with having quitting as a high priority and with setting a firm date to quit in the next month. Both disapproval and embarrassment also predicted engaging in behaviors to limit smoking, and only embarrassment was associated with increased likelihood to talk about quitting with family or friends and to make a quit attempt. No associations were found between social norms and being highly confident to quit and seeking help to quit. Associations were mostly comparable for lower and higher SES smokers, with no significant negative effects of social norms on quitting thoughts and behaviors overall or among subgroups. Conclusion: Within the strong tobacco control environment in Australia, smokers from lower and higher SES groups who perceive that their family and friends disapprove of their smoking, feel embarrassed to be a smoker and/or who live in a household with a recent quitter are more likely to prioritize quitting and intend to quit soon. These findings also indicate that the internalized injunctive social norm (i.e., feeling embarrassed) was the strongest predictor of smokers' quitting related behaviors, including making a quit attempt.

Abstract:
Background: Futile or potentially inappropriate care (futile/PIC) has been suggested as a factor contributing to clinician well-being; however, little is known about this association. Objective: To determine whether futile/PIC provision is associated with measures of clinician well-being. Design: Cross-sectional, self-administered, online questionnaire. Setting: Two New York City Hospitals. Participants: Attending physicians, residents, nurses, and physician assistants in the fields of internal medicine, surgery, neurology, or intensive care. Exposure(s): Provision of perceived futile/PIC. Measurements: Main outcomes included (1) clinician burnout, measured using the Physician Worklife Study screen; (2) clinician depression, measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire; and (3) intention to quit, measured using questions assessing thoughts of quitting and how seriously it is being considered. Results: Of 1784 clinicians who received surveys, 349 participated. Across all clinicians, 91% reported that they either had or had possibly provided futile/PIC to a patient. Overall, 43.4% of clinicians screened positive for burnout syndrome, 7.8% screened positive for depression, and 35.5% reported thoughts of leaving their job as a result of futile/PIC. The amount of perceived futile/PIC provided was associated with burnout (odds ratio [OR] 3.8 [16-30 patients vs 1-2 patients]; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.1-12.8) and having thoughts of quitting (OR, 7.4 [16-30 patients vs 1-2 patients]; 95% CI: 2.0-27), independent of depression, position, department, and the number of dying patients cared for. Conclusions: A large majority of clinicians report providing futile/PIC, and such care is associated with measures of clinician well-being, including burnout and intention to quit.

Abstract:
This study examined information technology professionals' perception of employee organizational commitment (OC) and its relationships to turnover across various industries in Thailand. Perceived job alternatives and thoughts of quitting were included to examine their influence on turnover intention both directly as independent variables and indirectly as mediators. Hypotheses tested were 1) the direct relationship between organizational commitment and turnover intention among IT personnel from various Thai companies, 2) the relationship between thoughts of quitting and turnover intention, 3) the relationship between perceived job alternatives and turnover intention, 4) the indirect relationship between organizational commitment and turnover intention through mediator - thoughts of quitting and 5) the indirect relationship between organizational commitment and turnover intention, as mediated by perceived job alternatives. The survey questionnaire used instruments that were already translated into Thai from previous research (Wongrattanapassorn, 2000). The original items in English were included with each item in the Thai language to provide respondents with additional information on the meaning of constructs. In addition to demographic items, the survey questionnaire contained four measures, one for each of the four variables: organization commitment (Allen & Meyer, 1990), thoughts of quitting (Peters, Jakofsky & Salter, 1981), perceived job alternatives (Peters, et al., 1981), and turnover intention (Hom, Griffeth & Sellaro, 1984). An accompanying letter with the hyperlink to the questionnaire page was sent via e-mail to 300 IT professionals who were randomly selected from the subscribers of Computerworld Thailand magazine and also those who attended IT seminars organized by Computerworld Thailand. Two hundred and eight responses returned, providing an acceptable response rate of 69.3 percent. Correlation and regression were used to test hypotheses. Results revealed that there was no direct relationship between overall organizational commitment and turnover intention. However, there was a negative direct relationship between continuance commitment and turnover intention. There was also no correlation between thoughts of quitting and turnover intention. There was a positive relationship between perceived job alternatives and turnover intention. For the mediating effect between organizational commitment and turnover intention, the results revealed that thoughts of quitting did not mediate the relationship as well as perceived job alternatives.

Abstract:
Beginning teachers’ job perceptions Over the last decade, the lack of qualified teachers in schools has been the subject of both research and political debate in many countries. In this study, we have investigated the factors that predict beginning teachers’ perceptions of job satisfaction, stress, and thoughts about quitting the job. The sample consisted of a total of 597 beginning teachers (65% women) from Norway. The results show that women experience higher job satisfaction and more stress at work than men do. The beginning teachers who said teaching was their first choice of career reported higher satisfaction with the profession and had fewer thoughts about quitting. Furthermore, the results show that beginning teachers are more satisfied than their more experienced colleagues with the profession and their school, a trend that was also reported by TALIS 2013. When it comes to beginning teachers’ own competence, the results show that self-efficacy in classroom management is significantly related to both higher satisfaction with their school and less stress. Regarding organizational factors, the findings show that commitment to and support from the school organisation are significantly related to higher satisfaction with the workplace. The study has several implications for school leaders and decision makers.

Abstract:
To move toward recovery after a first episode of psychosis, young people must focus on both their mental and physical health. Staying away from tobacco products, alcohol, and marijuana and other drugs; having a healthy diet; getting plenty of exercise; sleeping well; and having social support from family and friends are all necessary parts of a healthy lifestyle. Even those who have already begun to use substances can quit, and though difficult, in the end quitting will improve their mind and body. Even if the young person is not ready to quit completely, reducing substance use is always helpful. One way to introduce new healthy behaviors is by setting achievable weekly goals and tracking progress along the way to keep motivated.

Abstract:
In shipbuilding, outfitting is the process of installing non-structural components, like equipment, pipes, cables, ducts, etc., which can run through several structural compartments. Pre-outfitting is defined as outfitting activities that take place before hull erection, thus during panel, section and block assembly. The outfitting process is characterized by interferences between yard and many subcontractors, disturbances by unexpected delays, and technological constraints concerning the installation of main propulsion machinery. Scheduling of this process is therefore quite complex and a difficult topic to research. According to extensive literature study, there have been some relevant paper published more than twenty years ago[1],[2],[3],although since then the topic has not received much attention.. Traditionally, the initial outfitting process planning is generated largely manually by experts with the help of computer software, like Microsoft Project and Primavera. These tools allow some limited plan checking and evaluation. As soon as special simulation tools, for example based on eM-Plant or, Arena, are fully developed, plans can be tested, analyzed and optimized in a more accurate way. Even though the digitalization of downstream work is being developed, the initial plan depends greatly on experts. They have to be trained and then gain their expertise from practice. It generally takes over five years for someone to acquire sufficient expertise in a particular area[4]. Furthermore, the knowledge the experts gained by their years of experience may be lost, due to retirement and personnel quitting the company. Hence, it is indispensable to make such tacit knowledge explicit through models. It means that in order to optimize the facilities, maximize the production efficiency and minimize the building time, it is necessary to develop a system to automatically generate plans for outfitting processes, which can also support the simulation models afterwards for verification purposes. The research discussed in this paper looks into the possibilities to automatically generate an outfitting sequence and planning, based on two approaches. The first approach is an analytical approach, where the focus lies on the most convenient installation sequence on a system or compartment level. This sequence considers all relations between activities within one system and with activities of other systems, and relations within one compartment and its adjacent compartments. Then a mathematical approach is discussed. Physical constraints between the pipes, ducts, cable trays, etc. are introduced and represented. A model is made to generate an installation sequence of these components in one compartment.
