A Review and an Integration of Research on Job Burnout
Article
Full-text available
 * Oct 1993

 * CYNTHIA L. CORDES
 * Thomas W. Dougherty

Burnout is a unique type of stress syndrome, characterized by emotional
exhaustion, depersonalization, and diminished personal accomplishment. Although
burnout has been shown to be potentially very costly in the helping professions,
such as nursing, education, and social work, little work has been done thus far
to establish its generalizability to industry. This article reviews the
literature on burnout and provides a conceptual framework designed to improve
the understanding of burnout. Propositions are presented that are aimed at
clarifying the dynamics of burnout, including determinants of and
interrelationships among the three burnout components.

Development and Validation of the Secondary Traumatic Stress Scale
Article
Full-text available
 * Jan 2004

 * Brian E. Bride
 * Margaret M. Robinson
 * Bonnie L. Yegidis
 * Charles R. Figley

Objective: To describe the development and validation of the Secondary Traumatic
Stress Scale (STSS), a 17-item instrument designed to measure intrusion,
avoidance, and arousal symptoms associated with indirect exposure to traumatic
events via one's professional relationships with traumatized clients. Method: A
sample of 287 licensed social workers completed a mailed survey containing the
STSS and other relevant survey items. Results: Evidence was found for
reliability, convergent and discriminant validity, and factorial validity.
Conclusions: The STSS fills a need for reliable and valid instruments
specifically designed to measure the negative effects of social work practice
with traumatized populations. The instrument may be used to undertake empirical
investigation into the prevention and amelioration of secondary traumatic stress
among social work practitioners.

Managing the Risk of Workplace Stress: Health and Safety Hazards
Article
 * Jan 2003

 * Sharon Clarke
 * Cary Cooper

Working in a stressful environment not only increases the risk of physical
illness or distress, but also increases the likelihood of workplace accidents.
While legislation provides some guidelines for risk assessment of physical
hazards, there remains limited guidance on the risks of psychosocial hazards,
such as occupational stress. This book takes the risk management approach to
stress evaluation in the workplace, offering practical guidelines for the audit,
assessment and mitigation of workplace stressors. Based on research and case
studies, this book provides a comprehensive source of theoretical and practical
information for students and practitioners alike. It includes chapters on:
environmental stress factors psychological stress factors work-related accidents
job stress evaluation methods With its up-to-date approach to a fascinating area
of study, this is key reading for all students of organizational psychology and
those responsible for workplace safety.

Predicting post-traumatic growth and post-traumatic stress in firefighters
Article
 * Mar 2014
 * AUST J PSYCHOL

 * Deanne Armstrong
 * Jane Shakespeare-Finch
 * Ian M. Shochet

Emergency service workers (e.g., firefighters, police, and paramedics) are
exposed to elevated levels of potentially traumatising events through the course
of their work. Such exposure can have lasting negative consequences (e.g.,
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)) and/or positive outcomes (e.g.,
post-traumatic growth (PTG)). Research had implicated trauma, occupational and
personal variables that account for variance in post-trauma outcomes yet at this
stage no research has investigated these factors and their relative influence on
both PTSD and PTG in a single study. Based in Calhoun and Tedeschi's model of
PTG and previous research, in this study regression models of PTG and PTSD
symptoms among 218 firefighters were tested. Results indicated organisational
factors predicted symptoms of PTSD, while there was partial support for the
hypothesis that coping and social support would be predictors of PTG.
Experiencing multiple sources of trauma, higher levels of organisational and
operational stress, and utilising cognitive reappraisal coping were all
significant predictors of PTSD symptoms. Increases in PTG were predicted by
experiencing trauma from multiple sources and the use of self-care coping.
Results highlight the importance of organisational factors in the development of
PTSD symptoms, and of individual factors for promoting PTG.

Stress, Mental Health, and Burnout in National Humanitarian Aid Workers in Gulu,
Northern Uganda
Article
 * Dec 2012
 * J TRAUMA STRESS

 * Alastair Ager
 * Eba Pasha
 * Gary Yu
 * Barbara Lopes Cardozo

This study examined the mental health of national humanitarian aid workers in
northern Uganda and contextual and organizational factors predicting well-being.
A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 376 national staff working for 21
humanitarian aid agencies. Over 50% of workers experienced 5 or more categories
of traumatic events. Although, in the absence of clinical interviews, no
clinical diagnoses were able to be confirmed, 68%, 53%, and 26% of respondents
reported symptom levels associated with high risk for depression, anxiety
disorders, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), respectively. Between one
quarter and one half of respondents reported symptom levels associated with high
risk regarding measured dimensions of burnout. Female workers reported
significantly more symptoms of anxiety, depression, PTSD, and emotional
exhaustion than males. Workers with the United Nations and related agencies
reported fewest symptoms. Higher levels of social support, stronger team
cohesion, and reduced exposure to chronic stressors were associated with
improved mental health. National humanitarian staff members in Gulu have high
exposure to chronic and traumatic stress and high risk of a range of poor mental
health outcomes. Given that work-related factors appear to influence the
relationship between the two strategies are suggested to support the well-being
of national staff working in such contexts.

Transforming the pain: A workbook on vicarious traumatization. A Norton
professional book.
Article

 * Karen Saakvitne

In your profession, do you help or work with people who have been traumatized?
Do you listen to stories of abuse, suffering, or trauma from your clients every
day? If so, you know it is impossible to hear and bear witness to trauma
survivors' experiences and not be changed. You know firsthand the personal cost
of the work you do and the struggle to make sense of powerful, often painful,
feelings and altered beliefs. This transformation of a helper's inner experience
is called vicarious traumatization (VT); it is an inescapable effect of trauma
work. "Transforming the Pain" is the first workbook to address VT. It is
designed to take care of the helper—to help you assess, address, and transform
your own VT. [This book] defines and describes the VT process and offers
reassurance that you are not alone with these painful experiences. It includes
self-assessment worksheets, and guidelines and specific exercises for addressing
VT and improving self-care. It is designed to be used by a wide range of
professionals and paraprofessionals, including, but not limited to, therapists,
police, medical personnel, crisis workers, and clergy. After working with [this
book], you will find that you have a new awareness of the ways your work affects
your life as well as new skills and tools for improving your emotional
well-being. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved)

Stress and staff support strategies for international aid work
Article
 * Jul 2010

 * Penelope Curling
 * Kathleen B Simmons

This article will explore a variety of stressors affecting humanitarian aid
workers operating in an increasingly challenging environment and review
structures for aid worker support. It will summarise the findings of a workplace
stress survey conducted in 2009 by a large international aid organisation and
provide a comparative analysis with the 2003 stress survey carried out within
the same organisation. The article presents the results of respondent self
evaluations relating to key sources of stress in humanitarian aid work and
includes an analysis of results by sub-group, comparing staff operating in
humanitarian emergencies and those working in the relative safety and security
of headquarters environments, male and female, and national and international
staff. Finally, the article offers a review of the effectiveness of a range of
organisational staff support strategies, including a peer helper programme.

STATISTICAL INTERNATIONALISM: FROM QUETELET'S CENSUS UNIFORMITY TO KISH'S
CROSS-NATIONAL SAMPLE SURV...

November 2016 · Statistical Journal of the IAOS
 * Catherine Michalopoulou

Cross-national comparability of census data as uniformity was intensely debated
from the First International Statistical Congress (ISC), held in Brussels at
Quetelet's initiative in 1853, until an agreement was reached at the Eighth ISC,
in St. Petersburg, in 1872. However, not much progress was made until the last
