The Macroeconomic Context of Job Stress
Abstract
Using data from the 1973-1977 Quality of Employment Panel Study, we test a model that conceptually links research on macroeconomic causes of stress with research on job structure causes of stress among employed workers. Results from LISREL 7 (Jöreskog and Sörbom 1989) indicate that, while both macroeconomic and job structure variables have significant cross-sectional and longitudinal effects on stress, the macroeconomic effects are almost entirely indirect in their effect on job structures. In particular, higher occupational unemployment rates increased stress and lowered life satisfaction indirectly through reduced decision latitude and increased job demands. Overall, results suggest that macroeconomic changes, such as recessions, can affect individual stress because they lead to changes in routine job structures that represent increased and continued exposure to stressful conditions.

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.
