Why Me? A Case Study of the Process of Perceived Occupational Stress
通过一位接受心理动力学治疗的管理者的详细案例，研究职业压力从关注工作原因转向个体原因（如性格特质）的过程，发现治疗能改变压力感知，支持压力部分源于个体因素的观点。
This paper discusses occupational stress literature in terms of the movement from looking for job-related causes towards considering individual sources of stress such as dispositions and neuroticism. It goes on to consider this by a detailed examination of the personal meanings of job stress for one individual manager in psychodynamic psychotherapy. It outlines the ways in which measured job perceptions and satisfactions became more positive as symptoms decreased. The study supports the argument for some individually-related causes of stress but also shows how therapy and counseling can change perceptions, rather than treating them as dispositional and unchangeable.
