Summary: Teachers' job demands and resources are crucial for retaining teachers in schools. Analyses of Talis 2018 data from 24 European countries using the Job Demands and Resources model revealed that a safe school climate and a collaborative and participative school culture were the main job resources, while feelings of distress and perceived barriers for professional development were the main job demands. These findings were consistent for teachers at different stages in their careers, but varied for satisfaction with their school, career choice, and the teaching profession in general.

Summary: Through two studies, it was found that individuals with higher education levels have more job resources but also face more job demands, leading to increased job stress and decreased job satisfaction, offsetting the positive gains associated with resources. There are important trade-offs underlying the relationship between education and job satisfaction, and gender and self-employment status can influence this association.

Summary: Teachers play a crucial role in implementing artificial intelligence (AI) in education. This study explores the readiness of teachers in AI use, with four components - cognition, ability, vision, and ethics - and investigates their interrelationships and implications for teachers' work. Findings indicate that cognition, ability, and vision positively influence ethical considerations in AI use. The four components of AI readiness predict AI-enhanced innovation, which in turn predicts teachers' job satisfaction. Cluster analysis reveals different groups of teachers based on their AI readiness levels. This study emphasizes the importance of AI readiness for teachers and provides implications for successful AI-enhanced education.

Summary: This study expands the existing literature on over-education by examining the consequences of job mismatch on job quitting. It is the first study to explicitly test the impact of job satisfaction and on-the-job training on quit behavior using longitudinal data. The results suggest that over-education, especially when accompanied by low job satisfaction and under-utilization of skills, increases the likelihood of job quitting. However, providing training opportunities can help retain initially mismatched workers. These findings have implications for understanding mismatch data, retention strategies, and resource allocation.

Summary: This study examines the mediating role of job performance in the relationship between positive and negative affective states and job satisfaction of academics in Malaysian universities and colleges. It also performs a gender comparison analysis to address organizational diversity and extends the results. The data collected from 2337 academics are analyzed using the Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM) method. The results show that positive and negative affect have meaningful impacts on job satisfaction. The empirical evidence supports the mediating role of job performance only in the positive affect-job satisfaction linkage. Additionally, the permutation-based multigroup analysis reveals a significant difference between male and female academics regarding the positive affect-job satisfaction relationship. The implications and future directions are discussed.

Summary: This article provides a systematic review and thematic synthesis of interventions to increase retention of early career nurses during the pre-registration period. The results suggest that some interventions may lead to increased retention, but the conclusions are limited by the quality of reporting and scarcity of data. It is recommended to consider maximizing students' exposure to clinical practice and the potential benefits of interventions with alternative approaches such as psychological wellbeing programs.
