The goal of this project was to describe the relationship between overall occupational stress (OS), categories of stressors, overall job satisfaction (JS), and facets of JS in orthodontics. Canadian orthodontists were mailed an anonymous, self-administered survey. The response rate was 51.2% (335 of 654). The survey included a list of 67 potential stressors representing 6 categories, an overall OS score, and a modified version of the Dentists Satisfaction Survey (DSS). The correlation between the overall OS score and the overall JS scale of the DSS was r = -0.392. The overall OS scores were most strongly correlated to satisfaction with personal time (r = -0.385, P <.01) and satisfaction with practice management (r = -0.334, P <.01). Work-related stressors (r = -0.301, P <.01) and income-related stressors (r = -0.268, P <.01) were the categories with the highest correlation to the overall JS scale. Orthodontists reporting low OS had significantly higher satisfaction scores on all sections of the DSS. This difference was greatest in satisfaction with personal time and practice management. The results indicate the importance of OS in determining JS in orthodontics.
本项目的目标是描述正畸领域中总体职业压力（OS）、压力源类别、总体工作满意度（JS）以及工作满意度各方面之间的关系。向加拿大正畸医生邮寄了一份匿名的自填式调查问卷。回复率为51.2%（654份中的335份）。该调查问卷包括一份代表6个类别的67个潜在压力源列表、一个总体职业压力得分，以及一份修改版的牙医满意度调查问卷（DSS）。职业压力总体得分与DSS的总体工作满意度量表之间的相关性为r = -0.392。职业压力总体得分与个人时间满意度（r = -0.385，P <.01）和执业管理满意度（r = -0.334，P <.01）的相关性最强。与工作相关的压力源（r = -0.301，P <.01）和与收入相关的压力源（r = -0.268，P <.01）是与总体工作满意度量表相关性最高的类别。报告职业压力较低的正畸医生在DSS的所有部分的满意度得分显著更高。这种差异在个人时间满意度和执业管理满意度方面最为明显。结果表明职业压力在决定正畸领域工作满意度方面的重要性。
