  • Title: Stressful events, work-family conflict, coping, psychological burnout, and well-being among police officers.
    Author: Burke RJ.
    Journal: Psychol Rep; 1994 Oct; 75(2):787-800. PubMed ID: 7862787.
    Abstract:
    This study examined a research model developed to understand work attitudes and emotional and physical well-being. Data were collected from 828 police officers (including 738 men and 62 women) using questionnaires completed anonymously. Five groups of predictor variables identified in previous research were considered: individual demographic and situational variables, stressful events, work-family conflict, coping responses, and psychological burnout components. Considerable support for the model was found. Work attitudes and psychological well-being were more strongly predicted than were physical health and lifestyle behaviors.
