Summary: Nursing students' stress, protective factors, and psychological well-being (PWB) were examined in a cross-sectional correlational study in the Philippines. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test a hypothetical model of their interrelationships. The results showed that stress negatively impacted protective factors and all protective factors positively influenced PWB. Social support mediated the relationship between stress, resilience, mindfulness, and PWB. Resilience acted as a significant mediator between stress, self-efficacy, social support, and PWB. Mindfulness mediated the relationship between stress, social support, self-efficacy, and PWB. Self-efficacy played a mediating role between resilience and mindfulness. The proposed model can be used by nursing institutions and educators to develop programs that enhance nursing students' protective factors and improve their well-being.

Summary: This study examines the impact of learning burnout on university students' English learning effect in the online environment. By using a large sample questionnaire survey and structural equation modelling, the study measures the interactions between students' English online learning burnout (EOLB), academic self-efficacy (AEE), and teacher emotional support (TES), and analyzes their effects on students' online learning satisfaction. The results show that AEE plays a mediating role between EOLB and learning satisfaction, and TES plays a moderating role between EOLB and AEE, ultimately influencing students' online learning effect in behavior, cognition, and emotion. Based on these findings, the study provides suggestions for alleviating learning burnout among university students, which can optimize English online teaching design and learning practice.

Summary: Work-family conflict is a significant source of stress in predicting teachers' burnout, and cognitive variables play a key role in how humans adapt to stress. This study examined the mediating role of cognitive appraisal in the relationship between work-family conflicts and burnout among teachers. The results indicated that cognitive appraisal partially mediated the relationship between work-family conflict and burnout, with the mediation effect being consistent across different genders and ages. It is important to consider cognitive appraisal in understanding teachers' adaptation to work-related stress.

Summary: This study examines the impact of perceived overqualification (POQ) on career indecisiveness and explores the underlying factors. The findings suggest that POQ is positively related to career indecisiveness and negatively related to career self-efficacy. Career self-efficacy plays a mediating role in the relationship between POQ and career indecisiveness, while social support moderates this relationship. Addressing POQ and enhancing career self-efficacy can help reduce career indecision among employees.
