| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A study on the health and working status of precarious researchers was conducted. According to the results of its survey with part-time lecturers, those researchers gaining their income solely as a part-time lecture showed poor self-rated health or more serious psychological distress (SPD) as well as received health check-ups frequency than full-time researchers also working as a part-time lectures. Using logistic regression, we identified a positive association between precarious employment and poor self-rated health and SPD after adjusting for age, sex and work-carriers. This study has revealed that the poor health of non-regular researchers is associated with their stress and low income due to the unstable employment status.
