Despite increasing interest related to the role of graduate students in economic and social development, science policy scholars have overlooked the role of stress and its broader impact on the conduct of science. To motivate future empirical research, this study systematically reviews the literature on antecedents and the impact of stress among graduate students, examining thirty-four journal articles published from 2000 to 2018. We find that not only do multiple definitions of stress exist, but also that scholars have neglected broader theoretical implications and comparative dimensions of the phenomenon. While this outcome can be explained partially by the paucity of different national and disciplinary perspectives, these factors nonetheless hinder the design and implementation of effective interventions that can help graduate students reduce and manage stress levels and thus improve the conduct of science. We introduce a conceptual model of our findings and discuss implications for future research and policy.

压力下：对研究生的压力及其影响的系统评价

尽管人们越来越关注研究生在经济和社会发展中的作用，但科学政策学者却忽略了压力的作用及其对科学行为的更广泛影响。为了激发未来的实证研究，本研究系统地回顾了有关研究生的前因和压力影响的文献，研究了2000年至2018年发表的三十四篇期刊文章。我们发现，不仅存在多种压力定义，而且学者们忽略了这一现象的更广泛的理论含义和比较范围。尽管可以用不同的国家和学科观点来部分地解释这一结果，但是，这些因素阻碍了有效干预措施的设计和实施，这些干预措施可以帮助研究生减少和管理压力水平，从而改善科学行为。我们介绍了研究结果的概念模型，并讨论了对未来研究和政策的意义。
