Sex Differences in Work Stress
回顾了工作压力中性别差异的实证证据,发现女性更易报告心理困扰,男性更易患严重身体疾病,并提出了未来研究议程。
This paper reviews the empirical evidence of sex differences in stress dynamics and proposes a framework for examining the sources of these differences. Nineteen studies indicate that women tend to report higher rates of psychological distress and that men are more prone to severe physical illness. Explanations for these findings are posited and reviewed. They indicate gaps, ambiguities, and inconsistencies in the existing research. An agenda for future research is suggested.
