TL;DR: The effects on brain function associated with prenatal methylmercury exposure therefore appear widespread, and early dysfunction is detectable at exposure levels currently considered safe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of job stress dimensions based on the job demands- control model of employees of telecommunication and electric power companies in Japan: reliability and validity of the Japanese version of the Job Content Questionnaire.
TL;DR: To investigate the reliability and validity of 4 selected scales from the Japanese version of the Job Content Questionnaire, a survey was conducted on a total of 626 employees of telephone and electric companies in Japan and suggested that the JCQ scales are reliable and valid instruments for assessing job stressors in a Japanese working population.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In white-collar male daytime workers, psychological job stress factors such as interpersonal conflicts with fellow employees, job satisfaction, and social support were independently associated with a modestly increased risk of insomnia that included three different subtypes that were considered to be defining for the disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
