This handbook brings together an international group of experts to
offer a comprehensive resource on occupational stress. Including
both theoretical and practical perspectives, it examines ways to
reduce and treat stress, as well as the physiological,
psychosocial, and neural underpinnings of it. Through 24 original
and carefully selected essays, the authors offer new insights,
resources, and tools to better understand, manage and treat stress
in a professional environment. The book’s chapters are divided
into 5 parts that address the conceptualisation of stress; present
theoretical models (including the contribution of animal models);
examine the psychological and physiological aspects of stress and
ways to assess it; delve into psychosocial risks at work and their
assessment (means and methods); and investigate how to cope with
stress at work, including resilience training. Aspects such as the
effects of leadership, simulation training, and stress-tests for
hiring are also presented and discussed. The volume ends by
exploring broader considerations regarding stress and culture,
stress and occupational sectors (with a chapter focusing on
studentship), and the pharmacology of stress. This handbook is an
essential reference for researchers in organisational psychology,
as well as business and management and education, who are
interested in stress. Healthcare workers and therapists who treat
stress will also find an invaluable resource in this far-reaching
yet accessible collection.
