  Purpose: The purpose of this research is to study the relationship between perceptions of the work environment's factors and the librarian's work alienation in the Islamic Azad Universities of Tehran libraries. Methodology: The research method is Analytical survey. The statistical population consists of the 119 librarians of the Islamic Azad Universities of Tehran libraries. There are 100 questionnaires (84%) of the all 119, which were completed and returned. This study examines the rate of relationship between perceptions of the work environment's factors including Job Characteristics (Elbow Room, Task Identity, Feedback, Job Challenge), Occupational Role (Role Ambiguity, Role Conflict, Overload), and the librarian's work alienation. Findings: The research results show that the librarians under survey have a satisfaction of their workmates in common. There isn't any significant relationship between work alienation and demographic characteristics, but there is a significant relationship between work experience and the job characteristics. According to the results of this research, librarians of this research community aren't generally foreign with their labor, but the most of their grievances are about their participation in decision making, and role overload. Conclusions:Role ambiguity, role conflict and pressure have a negative correlation with the score of work alienation. Therefore, with an increase in each of them, the work alienation increases too. On the other hand, has a positive significant relationship with it, so that, with an increasing in task identity, the work alienation reduces Manuscript profile

  The aim of this study was to model job characteristics and job stress with the mediating role of emotional contagion among female medical staff in Tabriz hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic. The method of the present study was descriptive-survey and the correlational research design was structural equation modeling. The statistical population of this study was all female medical staff of Tabriz hospitals in 2021-2022. Among these staff, 262 women medical staff were purposefully selected by voluntary sampling. The research instruments included job characteristics questionnaire (JCHQ), emotional contagion questionnaire (ECQ) and job stress questionnaire (JSQ). Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between job characteristics with emotional contagion (0.414), emotional contagion with job stress (-0.307) and job characteristics with job stress (-0.146) (P &lt;0.01). Also, the mediating role of emotional contagion between the path of job characteristics and job stress (-0.127) was significant (P &lt;0.01). On the other hand, the reliability and validity of the research model also showed that the research model is at a desirable level. Given the results, the government should consider increasing investment in the health care system to reduce job stress in health care workers who face higher workloads. Manuscript profile
