- W2586804905 abstract "The present research investigated relationship of hardiness and coping as predictor and professional life stress as outcome variable among house-job doctors in five teaching hospitals of Lahore. Pakistan.The structural problem of health care system requires serious attention (Islam. 2002). Medical professionals. especially young doctors (house-job doctors) are working in unprivileged conditions. Poor pay and bad working conditions are some of the issues which have been agitating young doctors severely. Consequently. the young doctors are left with no option but to live and work under stress. Only few empirical studies have examined prevalence of stress. causes of stress. role of hardy personality in coping with professional life stress among house-job doctors (Malik & Rehman. 2003). Thus. it was needed that the relationship between hardiness and coping strategies as predictors and professional life stress as outcome be studied among house-job doctors.The current research is important for several reasons. First. this study generated additional knowledge about the relationships between hardiness and coping as independent variables and professional life stress as dependent variable in sample of Pakistani house-job doctors. Second. study of variables influencing workplace stress is also important because stress has various devastating effects on the workplace environment and improving an individual's hardiness may increase his ability to deal with workplace stress (Jalali & Amarqan. 2015). Furthermore. inexorable stress can have serious harmful effects on an individual's physical and psychological health (Yew. Lim. Haw & Gan. 2015). Finally. in Pakistan. doctors are working in un-privileged conditions and. therefore. are more prone to develop stress. Evaluation of professional life stress and hardiness may enable employers to assist healthcare professionals in using effective stress reducing coping strategies.Seyle (1983) considered stress to be physical response. Later on. several writers referred to stress as mind-body phenomenon (Monat. Lazrus. & Reevy. 2007). Stress at work is also termed as Work-stress and occupational stress. However. these terms are synonymously used for professional life stress. Professional life stress refers to a large number of work-related environmental conditions or specific events thought to impact the health and wellbeing of the worker (Hurrell. Nelson. & Simmons. 1998. p. 368).Researchers have discovered numerous job stressors that doctors and nurses usually come across: emotional demands of patients and their families. death and dying. conflicts with administrators. inadequate staffing and work overload (McCranie. Lambert. & Lambert. 1987). Likewise. prior research findings have linked professional life stress to absenteeism. negative outcomes of illness. decreased productivity and performance deterioration (Malik & Rehman. 2003). On the other hand. hardiness and coping strategies have been found to reduce or neutralize stressors among health professionals (Monat et al.. 2007; Ghiyasvandian & Gebra. 2014; Jalali & Amarqan. 2015). These findings support the theory that stress is experienced in work situations and appraisal of stress is dependent on variety of factors including individual's hardiness and coping (Rasouli. Hossenian & Dokanee. 2012; Chai & Low. 2015).Coping refers to cognitive and behavioral efforts to manage specific external and internal demands that are appraised as taxing or exceeding the resources of the persons (Folkman & Lazarus, 1988a. p. 310). Coping helps advance sense of increased control over the situation and is characterized by dynamics and changes that are function of continuous appraisals and reappraisals of the shifting person-environment relationship (Folkman et al.. 1986). Researchers argue that the effects of stress are directly linked to coping strategies (Ghiyasvandian & Gebra. …" @default.
