Positive psychology has been receiving great importance because of its stress management nature. The present study also derives some variables from the same because employees working in health care services are overlaid by workload, time pressure, sleep deprivation, irregular meals, staff conflicts and role conflicts, etc. Therefore, the aim of present research study is to investigate whether psychological Capital (PsyCap) contributes to the variance in Psychological well-being among Post Graduate doctors working in Government Medical College (GMC), Srinagar, Kashmir. The study was conducted on 100 post graduate doctors’including 55 male and 45female doctors within the age range from 24 to 45 years. The PsyCap was assessed by Luthans, Avolio and Avey’s (2007) 12 items scale. It further consists of four subscales, i.e., Hope, Self Efficacy, Resilience and Optimism. To assess Psychological Well-being the Ryff and Keye’s Psychological Well-being Scale (1995) of 18 items was used. It measures six dimensions of Psychological Well-being. The results revealed that PsyCap contributes12% to the variance in psychological wellbeing among Post Graduate doctors working in Government medical College, Srinagar, Kashmir. Further, the study also revealed that there is no difference in PsyCap as well as in psychological wellbeing so far as gender is concerned.Keywords

The purpose of the present research study is to develop a scale for Psychosocial Safety Climate (PSC) based on Dollar and Bakker's (2010) model of PSC that can be used to assess PSC among medical professionals in the Asian context, with special reference to healthcare settings in Kashmir. A sample of 341 medical professionals (doctors & nurses) was derived from Government Medical College and its associated hospitals, which include seven hospitals across the Kashmir valley. A total of 16 items scale was formulated on the basis of strong research and theoretical backgrounds. Exploratory factor analysis and Confirmatory factor analysis were carried out to find factor structure and confirm the same respectively. The findings revealed a three-factor structure consisting of management support, management communication, and management priority and participation explaining 53.3% of the variance. A confirmatory factor analysis revealed an acceptable model fit with CMIN/df = 2.29, GFI = 0.92, CFI = 0.93, and RMSEA = 0.06. The findings of the study corroborate that the scale holds well in the present context and therefore can help in creating a psychologically safe environment to work in.Keywords
