          Abstract

          Resumen Evaluar los efectos positivos de los factores psicosociales del trabajo es una permanente iniciativa de investigadores y profesionales. El objetivo del estudio es examinar psicométricamente la versión ultra reducida del Utrech Work Engagement Scale (UWES-3). Participaron 200 trabajadores de 21 a 53 años procedentes de la ciudad de Lima (Perú). Las evidencias de validez corroboradas fueron su estructura interna y su relación con otros constructos; los coeficientes alfa de Cronbach (α), Omega (ω) y H fueron los estimadores para la confiabilidad. Como resultados, se demostró la unidimensionalidad del UWES-3 y su asociación negativa con el síndrome de burnout; los niveles de confiabilidad en los tres estimadores fueron altos. Los resultados iniciales de validez y confiabilidad del UWES-3 pueden considerarse satisfactorios e incentivan a la continuidad de su estudio en el trabajo peruano.

          Abstract Researchers and practicing professionals are continually assessing the positive effects of psychosocial factors at work. This study psychometrically examined use of the ultra-short version of the Utrech Work Engagement Scale (UWES-3). Two hundred workers in Lima, Peru participated, ranging from 21 to 53 years of age. We corroborated the validity of the scale, according to its internal structure and relationship with other constructs; Cronbach alpha (α), omega (ω) and H coefficients were the reliability estimators. Results confirmed the unidimensionality of the UWES-3 and its negative association with burnout syndrome; scale reliability, based on the three estimators, was high. The initial validity and reliability results of the UWES-3 can be considered satisfactory and encourage its continued use in the Peruvian workforce.

            Job demands–resources theory: Taking stock and looking forward.

            The job demands-resources (JD-R) model was introduced in the international literature 15 years ago (Demerouti, Bakker, Nachreiner, & Schaufeli, 2001). The model has been applied in thousands of organizations and has inspired hundreds of empirical articles, including 1 of the most downloaded articles of the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology (Bakker, Demerouti, & Euwema, 2005). This article provides evidence for the buffering role of various job resources on the impact of various job demands on burnout. In the present article, we look back on the first 10 years of the JD-R model (2001-2010), and discuss how the model matured into JD-R theory (2011-2016). Moreover, we look at the future of the theory and outline which new issues in JD-R theory are worthwhile of investigation. We also discuss practical applications. It is our hope that JD-R theory will continue to inspire researchers and practitioners who want to promote employee well-being and effective organizational functioning. (PsycINFO Database Record
