| Research Abstract |
It was possible to develop valid and reliable self-report instruments that could measure stressors that cut across different occupations, that is, "generic" stressors. The work emphasized the aspects of people and environments that were possible to modify through learned behavior. The result was the Occupational Stress Inventory (OSI).
The work was motivated by the fact that little had been done to measure how individuals mobilize productive responses to occupationally induced stress. We developed three interrelated instruments based on the following model of social roles and stress. We reasoned that an individual's perception of the social roles they assume is of critical importance in their reaction to that stress. The OSI scales may be useful, then, for assessing problems within workgroups or organizations, for individuals assessment and counseling, and for family discussions or therapy. Interventions may be undertaken in any of the three demains measured in the model.
