RESUMO

The aim of this study was to assess the well-being of health workers linked to the Centro de Reabilitação e Readaptação Dr. Henrique Santillo (Crer), relating it with the accession to a belief in a just world and the locus of control. Belief in a just world is related to the fact that people believe that what is received is by merit, and when they are punished, it is also by merit. Locus of control is the way the individual perceives the relationship between their efforts and the outcome of these efforts, and who has this notion of relationship is internally oriented, and those who do not, is externally oriented. From the studies reviewed, it is assumed that participants who show high belief in a just world would, therefore, have high levels of well-being and the inverse also happens, low belief in a just world, low level of well-being. As to the relationship between locus of control and well-being, participants with internal locus of control would present high level of well-being and those with external locus of control would have low level of well-being. Took part in the study 146 professionals, ranging from high school to university level. The questionnaire consisted of socio-demographic data, scales of physical well-being and psychological locus of control and belief in a just world. The results showed that participants have a high level of well-being, high belief in a just world, high external locus of control, low belief in a just world and low internal locus of control. The results of multiple regressions showed a positive relationship between external locus of control and well-being, and a negative relationship between internal locus of control and well-being. There were no significant results in the relationship between belief in a just world and well-being. These results are discussed emphasizing the differences within the literatures about it are due, more to, how the instruments were built than the theoretical inconsistency.
