Research Resources

Women constitute an increasingly large segment of the paid workforce. Nevertheless, investigators of work stress have focused predominantly on men and, largely, have ignored possible gender differences. This has led to findings, based on the study of male workers, being incorrectly applied to females. Further, the limited amount of research into work stress and coping that has been published has been vulnerable to criticisms. An analysis of research in this area suggested that gender moderates work stress in three ways: men and women are vulnerable to different stressors relating to work; they utilise different coping strategies to cope with these stressors, and they vary in their perceptions of the resources that they have available to help them to cope. It is important to direct research resources to further investigation of gender differences in these three dimensions. Such research is necessary for the development of effective preventative and treatment programs for occupational stress.

The study examined the effectiveness of a group- administered cognitive behavioral intervention (CBT) with depressed university students in Jordan. 84 university students were recruited and assigned randomly to control and intervention groups. Intervention impact was assessed on measures of depressive symptoms, perceived stress, and coping strategies at three times points; baseline, postintervention, 3- months postintervention. Overall, using CBT showed a significant improvement in the used measures. At postintervention, students had lower scores on perceived stress, depression, and avoidance coping and higher scores in approach coping. The findings are discussed in terms of treatment implications and recommendations for use at academic settings.
