Sources of police stressors, job attitudes, and psychological distress were measured and analyzed from a sample of 103 police officers. Analysis indicated that police organizational stressors, mediated by job satisfaction and organizational goal orientation, increased psychological distress 6.3 times more than inherent police stressors. The indirect effect of organizational and inherent stressors appeared to nullify the distress-reducing potential of increased job satisfaction. Results are discussed in terms of these findings and the possible implications for further studies and intervention.
从103名警察样本中测量并分析了警察压力源、工作态度和心理困扰的来源。分析表明,由工作满意度和组织目标导向介导的警察组织压力源,导致心理困扰的程度比警察固有压力源高出6.3倍。组织压力源和固有压力源的间接影响似乎抵消了工作满意度提高所带来的减轻困扰的潜力。根据这些发现以及对进一步研究和干预可能产生的影响对结果进行了讨论。
