The aim of this study is to analyze the rela tionships between both online social support and group identification with health complaints and life satisfaction. Participants were 500 adult exam applicants for Secondary and Primary Ed ucation professor positions, who participate in a specific forum on the Web. A mediation model was tested using Structural Equation Modeling analysis. Our data showed that online social support partially mediates the effects of emo tional exhaustion on health complaints and life satisfaction. At the same time, effects of group identification are totally mediated by online so cial support. Finally, results and avenues for fu ture research are discussed. |
