This two year longitudinal study of managers investigated whether the level of interaction with other individuals was a job stressor that influences coronary risk factors. The results presented here show that increased levels of interaction were associated with increased serum triglyceride and increased serum uric acid levels. It is suggested that past research positing stress effects from responsibility for people may be due to interaction levels rather than responsibility per se. It was also found that Type A behavior and physical activity levels moderated these effects. While it is difficult to say that personal interaction, as a job stressor, contributes very significantly to either coronary risk factors or coronary heart disease the evidence supports the hypothesis that the amount of interaction has some specific stress effects.
这项针对管理者的为期两年的纵向研究调查了与他人的互动程度是否是一种影响冠心病风险因素的工作压力源。此处呈现的结果表明，互动程度的增加与血清甘油三酯升高及血清尿酸水平升高相关。有人提出，以往认为对他人负责会产生压力影响的研究，可能是由于互动程度而非责任本身。研究还发现，A型行为和身体活动水平会调节这些影响。虽然很难说作为工作压力源的人际互动对冠心病风险因素或冠心病有非常显著的影响，但证据支持这样的假设，即互动量会产生一些特定的压力影响。
