Book A Study of the State trait Anxiety Inventory and the Assessment of Stress Under Simulated Conditions

Download or read book A Study of the State trait Anxiety Inventory and the Assessment of Stress Under Simulated Conditions written by and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One approach to the measurement of stress in ATC and other aviation personnel is through assessment of anxiety. One means of accomplishing this is to use the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), a 40-item self-report technique. In order to determine if stress can be simulated on the STAI, the responses of 283 subjects obtained under normal instructions were compared to their responses obtained when asked to make it appear as if they were experiencing a high degree of stress. It was found that while both the A-State (current anxiety level) and A-Trait (anxiety proneness) scales were influenced by this response set, the effect was greater for the A-State scale. Using the A-State raw score alone as an index of bias resulted in 95.7% accuracy in protocol classification. A two-step procedure, using eight items and the A-State raw score, was subsequently devised which reduced false-positive classifications of legitimate psychiatric patient profiles from 49% to 38% with no reduction in discriminatory power for 'normal' records. The application of the index to clinical and research settings in aviation was discussed. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O Inventário de Ansiedade Traço-Estado (IDATE) apresenta duas escalas cujopropósito é o de quantificar a ansiedade enquanto estado (IDATE-E) e a ansiedadeenquanto traço (IDATE-T). O estado de ansiedade consiste numa condição cognitivoafetivatransitória enquanto que o traço de ansiedade representa uma característica maisestável da personalidade. Vários estudos indicam que estrutura latente da escala IDATETapresenta dois fatores. Diferentes interpretações destes dois fatores têm sido levantadas. Uma delas aponta para um fator composto por itens com conteúdo semântico queexpressam a presença de ansiedade, tensão ou preocupação enquanto que o outro fatorparece estar relacionado com itens cujo conteúdo semântico expressa a ausência deansiedade, tais como tranqüilidade, estabilidade e satisfação. Entretanto, outros estudossugerem que um destes fatores estaria mais diretamente relacionado à depressão. Frente aesta discussão, o propósito do presente estudo foi o de reavaliar a estrutura fatorial destaescala a partir de três amostras brasileiras com características distintas: a) estudantes deduas Universidades da cidade do Rio de Janeiro; b) estudantes do último ano do ensinomédio da cidade de Brasília; c) militares em processo de avaliação. Os resultadosindicaram a existência de estruturas fatoriais distintas do IDATE-T em função da amostraestudada. Amostras formadas por universitários e alunos do ensino médio apresentaramuma estrutura fatorial favorável à interpretação de um componente de ansiedade e outrode depressão. Por outro lado, a amostra formada por militares em processo de avaliaçãofavoreceu uma interpretação mais especifica dos IDATE-T, onde os dois fatores parecemestar associados à presença ou à ausência de ansiedade. Aspectos teóricos relacionadoscom a capacidade que instrumentos têm em distinguir constructos relacionados comansiedade e depressão são discutidos.

Book Stress and Police Personnel

Download or read book Stress and Police Personnel written by Leonard Territo and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 1981-01-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation of articles on job-related stress in policing addresses the complexities of the stress syndrome among police officers and advocates the incorporation of a stress intervention and management component into police officer training programs. The volume is designed for practical use by police officers and administrators. Articles are arranged in topical sections and begin with an orientation and introduction to the general subject, providing terminology and background to some of the principle psychological, physiological, and social consequences of stress. Job stress and some of its more destructive manifestations in police officers, such as alcoholism, divorce, other family problems, and suicide are examined. In addition, specific and unique stress experienced by women and minorities in law enforcement is also discussed. Recommendations are given concerning the most effective ways that both the officer and the law enforcement agency can deal with these problems. Articles on stress and the police administrator concern factors in the managerial task and function that contribute to stress. Among them are upward mobility with accompanying loss of supportive relationships among colleagues, family, and friends; the risks of decisionmaking with consequences affecting the lives of many people; and political pressures in balancing resources against goals and objectives. Under the topic of stress and the family, articles look at the toll exacted on wives, children and relatives of police personnel by the stressful aspects of police work, of which the high divorce rate is but the most visible consequence. The concluding section presents organizational and individual programs for coping with stress, illustrated by stress control and counseling programs available to officers, administrators, and families in the police departments of Miami, Dallas, and Chicago. A retirement counseling program for police officers is also discussed because of the unique nature of police retirement, which occurs early and isolates former officers from agency friends and informal peer groups that have served as a source of personal support. Tabular data and endnotes accompany individual articles. The appendix contains a listing of police stress training films. An index is also supplied.
