Mental, emotional and physical exhaustion has been increasing in humans due to work related stress. Many studies have been conducted on various variables contributing to and counteracting job stress. In our study, we aimed to examine the effect of different demographic and personal variables on job stress and its correlation with self-control in a hospital setting.
Our cross-sectional study involved 220 healthy staff members from Beijing hospital. Job stress and self-control were measured via the Chinese versions of the House and Rizzo Work Scale and the Self-Control Scale, respectively.
Participants with male gender and those with leading positions of authority reported higher job stress and poorer self-control (P < 0.01). Smokers also showed poorer self-control (P < 0.05, Bonferroni corrected P > 0.05). Poor physical and mental health conditions were observed to be significantly related to poor self-control (Bonferroni corrected P < 0.01) and higher job stress (Bonferroni corrected P < 0.05). Moreover, negative correlation was found between job stress and self-control and its dimensions (P < 0.001). Furthermore, job stress group and leadership position could interact to influence self-control, healthy habit, and resistance to temptation.
We concluded that gender difference, leadership position, physical and mental health conditions all can affect work stress and an individual's self-control. Moreover, self-control dimensions like impulse control and attention to work correlated to job stress. Furthermore, the interaction between job stress and leadership could affect self-control and its dimensions. Future studies can be focused on using these variables to cope up with the ever increasing work related stress in the modern world.
由于工作相关的压力，人类的精神、情感和身体疲劳一直在增加。许多研究已经针对导致和对抗工作压力的各种变量进行了研究。在我们的研究中，我们旨在检查不同人口统计学和个人变量对工作压力的影响，以及其与医院环境中自我控制的相关性。
我们的横断面研究涉及北京医院的 220 名健康工作人员。通过 House 和 Rizzo 工作量表的中文版和自我控制量表分别测量工作压力和自我控制。
男性参与者和具有领导权威地位的参与者报告了更高的工作压力和更差的自我控制（P <0.01）。吸烟者的自我控制也较差（P <0.05，经 Bonferroni 校正 P >0.05）。较差的身心健康状况与较差的自我控制（经 Bonferroni 校正 P <0.01）和较高的工作压力（经 Bonferroni 校正 P <0.05）显著相关。此外，工作压力与自我控制及其维度之间存在负相关（P <0.001）。此外，工作压力组和领导地位可以相互作用，影响自我控制、健康习惯和抵制诱惑。
我们得出结论，性别差异、领导地位、身心健康状况都可以影响工作压力和个人的自我控制。此外，自我控制的冲动控制和对工作的注意力等维度与工作压力相关。此外，工作压力和领导地位之间的相互作用会影响自我控制及其维度。未来的研究可以集中于使用这些变量来应对现代社会中日益增加的工作相关压力。
