title: A study of occupational stressor and the incidence of disease/risk.
abstract: We have presented data correlating workers perception of their roles in an organization with the incidence of disease and/or risk of disease. The results indicate there is a significantly higher incidence of disease when particular stressors are operating. It is also evident that disease/risk occurs more frequently when workers are either under-stimulated or over-stimulated as hypothesized by Selye.
