Occupational Stress Inventory-Revised
|
The Occupational Stress Inventory-Revised (OSI-R) is a concise measure
of three domains of occupational adjustment: occupational stress,
psychological strain, and coping resources. The original research
edition
of the OSI was designed to (a) develop an integrated theoretical
model
to link these three important dimensions, and (b) develop generic
occupational stress measures that would apply across different
occupational
levels and environments.
Applications
• Employee selection and placement.
• Work attitudes, turnover, and absenteeism.
• Work-related stress.
• Behavioral correlates of coronary diseases.
• Managerial counseling and development.
Description
The OSI-R is a battery composed of three questionnaires which measure
occupational stress, psychological strain and coping resources. The
instrument yields scores on 14 different scales ranging from "Role
Overload" and "Interpersonal Strain" to "Self-Care". The OSI-R is
comprised of 140 items
in total, written at a seventh grade reading
level. Respondents indicate on a
5-point rating scale the frequency of a
stress-related event. Total
administration time for the OSI-R is 30
minutes. The OSI-R was normed
on more than 900 adults in 130 different
occupations.
Reliability and Validity
The revised version of the OSI-R manual and several research studies
provide strong support for the reliability and validity of this
carefully
constructed assessment.
Internet
