The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and the validity of the Korean Occupational Stress Scale(KOSS) in occupational therapists. The data were collected from 214 occupational therapists by using the Korean Occupational Stress Scale. The gathered data were conducted the factor analyses and validation process to ascertain the validity. The results of this study suggested that to estimate occupational stress of occupational therapist, modified version of the KOSS which was consist of eight subscales might be more an appropriate measurement scale than the original version of the KOSS which was composed of seven subscales. Eight subscales of the scale were occupational climate, organizational system, insufficient job control, lack of reward, job demand, interpersonal conflict, job ability and job insecurity, and out of these, job ability was newly added for occupational therapist. Also the results indicated that Cronbach's alpha score of this measurement tool was 0.84, and it means that internal consistency of this scale has good reliability, and the number of questions are also valid. This study has significance to suggest necessary psychometric characteristics of the occupational stress scale for job stress study in occupational therapist.

Psychophysical method는 육체의 자극과 그 자극에 반응하는 인간의 감각과의 관계를 다루는 것으로, 드는 작업시의 하중에 관한 외국의 연구에서 자주 사용되고 있는 방법중의 하나이다. Psychophysical method를 사용하면 8시간 작업을 실제로 하지 않고서도 훨씬 적은 시간의 실험을 통하여 8시간 작업시와 근사한 결과를 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있다. 따라서 이 방법은 시간과 경비를 줄인다는 이점이 있어 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 외국인과 스트레스를 느끼는 정도, 그리고 신체적 차이가 있는 한국의 피실험자에게도 psychophysical method가 적용 가능한가를 알아보기 위하여 우리나라 작업자와 학생에 대하여 연구를 하였다. 20분과 8시간 동안의 드는 작업을 실시한 결과, 작업자군은 20분 동안의 드는 실험에서 8시간 동안의 작업이 육체에 주는 스트레스의 96%를 예측할 수 있었으나 학생군에 있어서는 76%밖에 예측하지 못하였다. 따라서 우리나라에서는 작업 경험이 부족한 학생들에게 psychophysical method를 적용할 경우 보정이 필요하나, 작업 경험이 풍부한 작업자들에게는 용이하게 적용할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting occupational therapist's job stress through meta-analysis. Methods : In order to achieve the purpose of the study, 15 studies that examined job stress of occupational therapists were selected for analysis. The general characteristics of individual papers and the magnitude of the effect of related variables on job stress were calculated. The effect size of related variables on job stress and sub-factors (Fisher z) were calculated. Results : The results were found that the effect size on job stress was not significant in the variables of education level, salary and age. The largest effect size was found to be turnover intention (ES=1.161). There was no significant effect size in sub-factors of interpersonal conflict, organization system and insufficient job control. There was a significant effects in physical environment, lack of reward, job insecurity, job demand and occupational climate. Conclusion : The results of this study were suggested that an approach depending on sub-factors is needed to reduce job stress of occupational therapists. Satisfaction, burnout, and self-efficacy, which are psychological factors, are considered to be needed a program for psychological empowerment in order to reduce the job stress of the occupational therapist with a medium effect size according to individual sub-factors.
