Job Stressors, Hardiness, Ego-Resilience, and Stress Responses among Geriatric Caregivers
Abstract
As becoming an ageing society promptly, researchers investigated how job stressors,hardiness, and self-resilience are related to stress responses of professional geriatric caregivers. The participants were 204 geriatric caregivers who were employed at a geriatric hospital, whose ages ranged from 35 to 65. The psychological tests used in this research included the following: Karasek's Job Content Questionnaire, Bartone's Hardiness Scale:Short-Form, ego resilience items from CPI, and Stress Response Inventory. Results indicated that job complexity and burden of decision latitude rather than job simplicity and lack of decision latitude were included as the factor of job stressors for geriatric caregivers. Only job complexity among the job stressor sub-variables was related to stress responses. Hardiness of caregivers was related with stress, but competence, its sub-variable, did not show this kind relationship. And, moderating effect of hardiness on job stressors and stress responses was not found. Compared with hardiness, ego-resilience accounted more variance of stress responses, it plays the role of moderator in the relation of the job stressor and stress in hierarchical regression analysis. It was discussed the role of job stressors, hardiness, and ego-resilience in stress responses with previous studies.
