QPSNordic - the General Nordic Questionnaire for Psychological and Social Factors at Work: n:995Index
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The study consisted of construction and testing of a questionnaire, QPSNordic, which is a common Nordic questionnaire for psychological and social factors in working life. The study was financed by the Nordic Minister Counsellor (Nordiska Ministerrådet) and the Nordic working environment institutes in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. Three books and one user manual have been published in the Nordic Minister Counsellor's publication series NORD. In addition, user manuals have been released in the language of each involved country. There are reports on the study and the validity check process in each country. The reports contain reviews on the intelligible and the theoretic background to the psychological and social factors which were chosen to be measured by QPSNordic. The relevant work related psychological and social factors are defined, their theoretic background is described and their association with health and well-being is presented. The basic principles for the selection of factors to QPSNordic were their relevance and importance for work, health and well-being. The multidisciplinary composition of the project group with experts from different specialties affected the choices in both content and methodology. Data bases from earlier Nordic questionnaires made the ground for the selection of questions in the questionnaire. The new QPSNordic consists of multiple-choice questions about following psychological and social factors in work: job requirement and control, predictability and mastery in work, social factors, leadership, organisational culture, interaction between work and private life, centrality of work, commitment to the organisation and work motivation. The validity check process contained the data collections from four Nordic countries. The first data collection (n=1015) was made to study the factor structure of the questionnaire. Twenty-six scales were created. The second collection (n=995) was made to test the intelligible and predictable validity of the scales. Inner consistence and retest reliability was estimated for each scale. The final version of QPSNordic contains 129 questions whereof 80 make up the 26 scales. Purpose: QPSNordic is designed to use as an instrument for studying psychological, social and organisational working conditions: 1) In organisation development and interventions, 2) in research of association between work and health and 3) in documentation of changes in working conditions.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
