Abstract: | Stress that relates to the work environment has received increasing attention. However, research on gender differences and
work-related stress is limited. Previous research has shown that female correctional officers tend to experience higher levels
of stress than do their male counterparts. However, this research found that female and male correctional officers experience
similar levels of stress as measured both objectively and subjectively. Ulis result should not be surprising given the existing
working conditions in most prisons today. |
