| Abstract: | In the study, the relationship of job stress with overall burnout and its three dimensions (e.g. emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and lack of accomplishment) and health problems among employees (here as: empls.) in Canada (N=535) and the People's Republic of China (N=685) is examined. Data were collected by means of a structured questionnaire from Canadian empls. in Montreal and Chinese empls. in Beijing. Job stressors e.g. work overload, ambiguity, conflict and resource inadequacy were significantly related to many dependent variables in both countries. Moderated multiple regressions only marginally supported the role of gender as a moderator of stressor-burnout relationship. |
