GARCIA-RUBIANO, Mónica  e  FORERO-APONTE, Carlos. Labor stress and psychological contract as relational elements of organizational change. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.1, pp.149-162. ISSN 1794-9998.  https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2018.0001.11.

The goal of this research was to identify the relationship between work stress and psychological contract in the process of organizational change in employees of four companies in Bogotá. We used the Colombian adaptation of the questionnaire of occupational roles by García - Neira, Piraquive, Salazar, & García (2012), the inventory of psychological contract, version 2 and the organizational change measure. Then, we performed a correlational cross-sectional analysis corroborated with a simple regression analysis. Organizational change was found to positively correlate with most subvariables of psychological contract, and negatively with stress. Finally, psychological contract seemed to explain organizational change at a higher predictive level than work-related stress. These results are a theoretical and empirical contribution that may be used by organizations to understand how to approach organizational change.
