Positive psychological capacities in the workplace are an area on which considerable research has been done over the last few years. These capacities include self-efficacy, hope, optimism and resilience and are collectively referred to as 'psychological capital'. Due to the importance of the role of individual's attitude towards work and due to dearth of studies on the Psychological capital in India, the present study was undertaken to find out the influence of positive psychological capital and work attitude on the work performance of ITES employees. The sample consisted of 147 individuals from reputed a ITES company in Chennai city. Convenient sampling procedure was used to collect data. Pearson's correlation, student t-test and ANOVA were the statistics used to analyze the data.Keywords

The present study explored the role of job attitude in relation to perceived occupational stress, interrole conflict, and psychology wellbeing of women police. The study also examined the influence of demographic factors such as job experience, family structure, number of transfers, and number of dependents on all psychosocial variables studied. The sample was chosen from a sampling frame of 181 women constables, who satisfied the criteria of marital status. Data were obtained from a sample of 72 married women constables and head constables of the Chennai City police department. Data were analyzed by using correlation analysis and t-test. The sample was divided into two groups as low and high job attitude based on the mean scores in job attitude scale. Correlation analysis among the variables revealed that job attitude was negatively related to both occupational stress and interrole conflict. Moreover, job attitude was positively related to psychological well-being. Occupational stress was negatively related to psychological well-being of women police. It was found that interrole conflict did not significantly influence the occupational stress and psychological well being of women police. Moreover, those with more job experience perceived low occupational stress and better psychological well-being. Women police with more number of dependents perceived greater interrole conflict than those with lesser number of dependents. Further, the number of transfers and type of family did not influence job attitude, perceived occupational stress, interrole conilict,and psychological well-being of women police. The study had implications for further research in police force and in developing effective interventions to reduce occupational stress and to enhance psychological well-being of women police.Keywords
