ObjectiveWork-related stress presents a significant impact on work performance and physical health. It has been associated with the onset of a multitude of symptoms. The main aim of this investigation is to better understand the impact of post-traumatic stress symptomatology, using a specific self-assessment questionnaire, in subjects experiencing occupational stress with the rationale to address the variegated symptoms expressed by this particular population in a post-traumatic dimensional perspective.MethodsAuthors collected socio-demographic, occupational, and clinical data. They utilized Trauma and Loss Spectrum Self Report (TALS-SR), a questionnaire investigating post-traumatic stress symptoms. The population size was 345 subjects who presented at the Occupational Health Department of a university hospital over a 3 years period (2016–2018).ResultsData analysis revealed 33.9% of subjects who met post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) criteria. Gender distribution of this set was (36.4% female, 31% male). A family history or personal history of mental disorders were related to higher scores in almost all TALS-SR domains and were related, respectively, to higher scores of criterion B “intrusion symptoms” (P = .014), criterion D “negative alterations in cognitions and mood” (P = .023), and criterion E “arousal” (P = .033) of PTSD. Differences in TALS-SR scores also emerged based on age and gender.ConclusionsPTSD symptoms manifest at a significant level in those who experience work-related stress. Personal background of individuals, both in terms of family and personal history for mental disorders, seems to increase their vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress symptoms. This study suggests the importance of evaluating occupational stress from a post-traumatic stress perspective also at an early stage.

意大利一组抱怨职业压力的受试者的创伤后压力症状

目标与工作相关的压力对工作表现和身体健康产生重大影响。它与多种症状的发作有关。这项调查的主要目的是更好地了解创伤后压力症状学的影响，使用特定的自我评估问卷，在经历职业压力的受试者中，以及解决这一特定人群在创伤后表现出的各种症状的基本原理。维度透视。方法作者收集了社会人口、职业和临床数据。他们使用了创伤和失谱自我报告 (TALS-SR)，这是一份调查创伤后压力症状的问卷。人口规模为 345 名受试者，他们在 3 年（2016-2018 年）期间在一所大学医院的职业健康部门就诊。结果数据分析显示，33.9% 的受试者符合创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 标准。该组的性别分布为（36.4% 女性，31% 男性）。精神障碍的家族史或个人病史与几乎所有 TALS-SR 领域的高分相关，并且分别与标准 B“侵入症状”的高分相关。磷= .014），标准 D“认知和情绪的负面变化”（磷= .023），标准 E“唤醒”（磷= .033) 的 PTSD。TALS-SR 评分的差异也出现在年龄和性别的基础上。结论 PTSD 症状在经历与工作相关的压力的人中表现出显着水平。个人的个人背景，无论是家庭还是精神障碍的个人病史，似乎都增加了他们发展创伤后应激症状的脆弱性。这项研究表明，在早期阶段也从创伤后压力的角度评估职业压力的重要性。
