Abstract: Crises tend to be crucial political events with the ability to determine the public’s faith in political actors.

TL;DR: The aim was to synthesize existing research on daily hassles in professional first responder settings into a theoretical model, and five superior categories emerged in the analysis: Individual antecedent and continuously framing factors, Environmental antecedents, Appraisal and coping processes, Daily hasSles and Outcome.
Abstract: Occupational groups such as firefighters, military officers, paramedics and police officers are exposed to a combination of acute, severe and accumulated everyday stress. Drawing on the daily hassles perspective on stress, the aim was to synthesize existing research on daily hassles in professional first responder settings into a theoretical model. A systematic mixed studies review with an integrated design was undertaken. The selection process resulted in 40 articles meeting the inclusion criteria. The selected papers represented two literature reviews, one qualitative study, eight longitudinal studies and 29 cross-sectional studies. Five superior categories emerged in the analysis: Individual antecedent and continuously framing factors, Environmental antecedent and continuously framing factors, Appraisal and coping processes, Daily hassles and Outcome. Suggestions for future research are presented.
