Purpose: The goal of this study was to identify the current status of research on job stress conducted in Korea and to suggest directions for future nursing research. Methods: A total of 395 articles (76 nursing science, 100 health science, 219 social science) selected from 'Korean Research Foundation Registered Journals' were reviewed. The papers were classified by criteria, focusing on research frameworks, topics and methodologies. Results: There has been a rapid increase in the number of articles since the 1990s. However, the following issues were discovered: lack of theoretical frameworks about factors related to job stress, a paucity of attention to sophisticated methodologies including the development of strong measurement tools, and incoherence among the level of theory, level of measurement, and/or level of statistical analysis. Conclusion: Based on the key findings of this study the following are proposed: increased efforts to develop theoretical framework to guide empirical investigations, improvements in methodological rigor, research conduct with various job groups with different approaches such as qualitative or experimental research, and encouragement for interdisciplinary approaches to the study on job stress.

A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the association between musculoskeletal workload and psychosocial job stress variables from 100 employees from a cable making industry. It was found that the employees who had to do musculoskeletal hazardous tasks suffered higher psychosocial stress in 'decision latitude', 'job insecurity' and 'psychological job demands' also. The employees with higher level of psychosocial job stress in 'psychological job demands' and 'score of the "type A" personality' responded that they had higher 'physical job demands' from the task irrespective of its musculoskeletal hazardousness. These results confirm that musculoskeletal workload were associated with both physical and psychosocial work factors. Attention should be paid to psychosocial work factors along with physical workload to prevent musculoskeletal disorders in the manufacturing industries.

본 연구에서는 초등학교 교사의 직무스트레스를 유발하는 다양한 원인에 기초했을 때 어떤 프로파일이 존재하는지 확인하고, 확인된 잠재계층 분류에 영향을 미치는 변인이 무엇인지, 확인된 잠재계층에 따라 교사-아동 관계, 학부모 학교 참여 수준에 차이가 있는지 탐색하였다. 이를 위해 육아정책연구소 한국아동패널 11차(2018년) 자료의 초등학교 교사 709명의 자료를 사용하였으며, 잠재프로파일 분석 방법을 활용하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 초등학교 교사의 직무스트레스를 유발하는 다양한 원인(학부모와의 관계, 생활지도, 수업지도, 행정업무)에 기초했을 때 4개의 독립적인 특성을 갖는 잠재프로파일(직무스트레스 하 집단, 직무스트레스 중상 집단, 행정업무 관련 직무스트레스 중상 집단, 학부모와의 관계-생활지도 관련 직무스트레스 중상 집단)이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 잠재계층 분류에 교사의 성별, 연령, 경력, 최종 학력, 월 평균 근무 시간 중 최종 학력과 월 평균 근무 시간이 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 셋째, 잠재계층에 따라 교사-아동 관계 중 갈등 영역과 학부모 학교 참여 수준에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 잠재계층 4집단(학부모와의 관계-생활지도 중상 집단)이 다른 잠재계층보다 아동과의 갈등 수준은 높지만, 학부모 학교 참여 수준은 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 초등학교 교사가 경험하는 직무스트레스 특성은 다양한 유형으로 나타날 수 있으며, 이에 기초한 직무스트레스 해소 및 예방을 위한 맞춤형 방안을 마련할 필요가 있음을 시사한다.

본 연구는 조직유효성에 영향을 미치는 요소 중에서 최근 이슈화 되고 있으며 심리학과 교육학에서 중시되어 다루어지는 주제인 공감(empathy)을 경영학에 접목시켜 직무스트레스라는 매개를 통해 조직유효성(직무만족, 이직의도)과의 관계와 연구의 한계점을 알아보고자 한다. 수도권을 중심으로 충청도, 경상도, 전라도 등을 포함한 5개 지역에 분포되어있는 기업 직장인들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 결과는 spss 21 통계프로그램 사용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과 첫째, 공감의 하위요인 인지적, 정서적 공감 중에서 인지적 공감은 직무스트레스에서 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 공감의 하위요인 인지적, 정서적 공감은 모두 직무만족에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 공감의 하위요인 인지적, 정서적 공감에서 인지적 공감은 이직의도에 대해 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있으나 정서적 공감은 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 직무스트레스는 직무만족에 부(-)의 영향을 미치며 이직의도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것을 발견하였다. 마지막으로 공감과 직무만족 및 이직의도의 관계에 있어서 직무스트레스의 매개역할을 확인하였다. 이상의 실증연구결과를 바탕으로 연구의 의의 및 한계점, 향후 연구방향을 제시하였다.
