Job insecurity is now one of the major stressors affecting well-being at work. In academia, researchers appear to be in the most precarious position. To explore the relationship between job insecurity and well-being at work, we analyzed a sample of research fellows belonging to STEM disciplines in Italy. Using a latent profile approach, we identified three "hidden" subgroups: "Safe & Sound"; "Safe not so Sound" and "Neither Safe or Sound." Compared to previous studies, our results show that even within a population of STEM researchers that tends to have good levels of employability and mobility, there are subgroups of people characterized by greater job insecurity and low work commitment, who suffer from emotional exhaustion and cynicism at work level, i.e., more exposed to the risk of burnout.
工作不安全感如今是影响工作幸福感的主要压力源之一。在学术界，研究人员似乎处于最不稳定的地位。为了探究工作不安全感与工作幸福感之间的关系，我们分析了意大利STEM学科领域研究员的样本。我们采用潜在剖面分析方法，识别出三个“隐藏”亚组：“安然无恙”组、“表面安全”组和“既不安全也不幸福”组。与之前的研究相比，我们的结果表明，即使在STEM研究人员群体中，他们往往具有较高的就业能力和流动性，但仍有一些亚组人群存在较高的工作不安全感和较低的工作投入度，他们在工作中会出现情绪衰竭和玩世不恭的态度，即更容易出现职业倦怠风险。
