ABSTRACT:
The prevalence of occupational stressors in physical education faculties/departments as a function of sex, age, marital status, family status, years of work experience in higher education, and type of appointment was examined through use of the Stress Diagnostic Survey (Ivancevich & Matteson, 1988a). This mulitdimensional self-report inventory consists of 17 dimensions, which are further subdivided into organizational stressors (macrostressors) and individual stressors (microstressors). The sample reported moderate degrees of stress in comparison to the normative data with the macrostressors being greater sources of stress than the microstressors. Quantitative overload was rated the highest followed by time pressure and rewards. Qualitative overload was rated lowest followed by role ambiguity and role conflict. Sex was associated with the greatest number of stressors - gender discrimination, quantitative overload, and time pressure. Females perceived these three stressors to be significantly greater sources of stress than did males.
