TLDR
Moderate levels of stress were found to exist, with five individual variables (hardiness, age, education, years in nursing education and exercise) and five organizational variables combining to best predict the occurrence of work-related stress.Abstract:
Factors predictive of work-related stress in 287 female nurse educators were studied in a randomly selected sample of 18 U.S. (NLN) accredited schools of nursing. The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Form Ed, the Hardiness of Personality Inventory, the Blair Exercise Activity Index, a demographic tool and an administrator-completed questionnaire were used. Moderate levels of stress were found to exist, with five individual variables (hardiness, age, education, years in nursing education and exercise) and five organizational variables (student contact hours for part-time faculty, task complexity, economic environment of school, number of full-time faculty and percentage of tenured faculty) combining to best predict the occurrence of work-related stress.read more
