These seminars are specifically designed for PhD students in the Netherlands and Belgium. Each seminar will be organized by a different WAOP professor. 
Attending a seminar will provide you with 1 ECTS per seminar, and you can follow as many as you want.

Joint Seminar 1/2, 2019-2020: Fostering worker health and well-being: A day-to-day perspective, by Ute Hülsheger (Maastricht University) and prof. Fred Zijlstra (Maastricht University). 

Short-term work stress and recovery related processes play an important role in the maintenance of long-term well-being and health (Meijman & Mulder, 1998). In the present workshop we will therefore shed light on short-term processes related to health and well-being that unfold within days, from one day to the next, or over the course week(s). Adopting this short-term dynamic perspective, we will focus on processes involved in recovery from work (e.g. rumination/worrying, sleep, psychological detachment), emotional labor and mindfulness and consider predictors and outcomes of such processes. We will review recent research and discuss methodologies and analytical approaches that allow studying such research questions (experience-sampling, event-reconstruction).
