Occupational Stress and Coping with Stress: A Critique
批判了职业压力研究中四个核心概念(压力、紧张、应对行为、应对风格)在概念化和操作化上的模糊性,指出这导致了研究混淆,并提出了改进未来研究方法的建议。
This paper considers problems in the conceptualization and operationalization of four concepts in occupational stress research: stress, strain, coping behavior, and coping style. The paper argues that a lack of conceptual and operational clarity in each of these areas has led to confusion in both the conduct and the interpretation of occupational stress and coping research, citing examples from the literature to support and illustrate this argument, as well as re-analyzing previous research. Recommendations are made for future research methodology which may overcome or limit some of the conceptual and operational problems examined.
