A validation study of the OSI on a blue‐collar sample
Abstract
The Occupational Stress Indicator is a diagnostic research tool which assesses seven different aspects of the stress—strain relationship. On the outcome or strain side, it measures job satisfaction, mental health and physical health. On the stressor or independent variable side of the equation, it assesses sources of job stress, type A behaviour, locus of control and coping styles. It has been previously validated for white‐collar and professional groups and this article describes its validation for a blue‐collar sample.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
