Abstract: In recent years research on organizational happiness has been increasing but instruments to measure
happiness at work, considering organizational factors, are scarce. This study aims to validate a scale
to measure organizational happiness among physiotherapists and its relationship with patient
satisfaction. For that we will implement an Organizational Happiness Scale to physiotherapists and
the Physical Therapy Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire to their patients. At the end two major
outcomes will be achievable: (i) the study of validation and reliability of a happiness organizational
scale to be used among physiotherapist and, (ii) to understand if happiest physiotherapists have more
satisfied patients. Previous research demonstrates the positive impact of satisfaction on patient
rehabilitation. This study will provide knew knowledge on the contribution of a happy
physiotherapist professional for that.2015-01-01T00:00:00ZHealth Care Professionals Happiness and Patient Satisfaction. The case of Physiotherapists

Abstract: Research on organizational happiness has been increasing in recent years but there is still need to develop instruments to
measure happiness at work, considering organizational factors. These studies aim to start this work, proposing a scale to
measure organizational happiness. We conducted two studies, following a cross validation approach. The first study, qualitative, by applying content analyses, aimed to identify the factors and variables considered essential to be happy within
the organization. The sample in study 1 consisted of 969 active professionals from Human Resources Portuguese Association database. Based on the content analyses we developed a first questionnaire. Study 2 aimed to initiate the scale validation. The questionnaire developed in study 1 was answered by a second sample of 1336 active professionals. The exploratory analysis identified four first order factors. Next step will be to proceed with confirmatory factorial analysis to validate the model and propose a final scale.2015-10-01T00:00:00ZTeenagers’ Socio and Cultural Values: Relation with Entrepreneurship
