Firefighters demonstrate heightened rates of posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, and alcohol consumption, compared to the general population. This study examined whether firefighters who were satisfied with their romantic relationships experienced lower severities of commonly reported mental health symptoms compared to firefighters who were dissatisfied with their relationships. The sample included 200 firefighters (97% male; =41.4, =9.3) currently married or living with a romantic partner who completed self-report measures via online survey. An established cut-off score of 13.5 (Couples Satisfaction Index-4) was used to define groups. Firefighters who indicated that they were dissatisfied reported higher levels of all measured outcomes.
与普通人群相比,消防员表现出更高的创伤后应激障碍、抑郁、焦虑和酒精消费率。本研究调查了对浪漫关系感到满意的消防员与对关系不满意的消防员相比,是否经历的常见心理健康症状严重程度更低。样本包括200名消防员(97%为男性;平均年龄41.4岁,标准差9.3),他们目前已婚或与浪漫伴侣同居,通过在线调查完成自我报告测量。使用既定的13.5分(夫妻满意度指数-4)作为划分组别的分数。表示不满意的消防员在所有测量结果上的得分更高。
