Organizational exit pressures and role stress: Impact on mental health
基于590名精神障碍群体之家护理人员的纵向数据，研究了组织退出压力与角色压力对心理健康的影响，发现退出压力直接导致躯体化症状，并与角色模糊交互影响焦虑和躯体化。
Abstract Hypotheses regarding role stress, chronic burden and two forms of vulnerability to mental health symptoms are tested in a longitudinal sample of 590 caregivers working in group homes for the mentally ill. In addition, an organizational exit pressure hypothesis is offered. Measures of exit pressure are identified and incorporated into predictive models of stress and mental health. Exit pressures affect somatization directly and interact with role ambiguity to affect subsequent levels of anxiety and somatization. The results suggest that selection pressures in and out of social settings should be conceptualized as part of models of stress and mental health.
