Abstract
LEMOS, Mariantonia et al. Factores psicosociales asociados al estrés en profesores universitarios colombianos. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2019, vol.15, n.1, pp.61-72. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2019.0015.05.
Objective: to evaluate the psychosocial factors associated with stress in a sample of professors from a private Colombian university. Method: Correlational descriptive study of an intentional sample of 61 professors (age range 25 to 63 years, 65,6 % men). The patient’s health questionnaire PHQ-9, Generalized Anxiety Questionnaire GAD-7, Perceived Stress Scale PSS-14 and a questionnaire of psychosocial work factors were used. In addition, blood pressure measurements were taken. Results: 21,3 % of professors had significant levels of stress. There are more need to work at home, family-work and work-family interference in professors with stress, while control is lower. It should be noted that these teachers also have greater emotional symptoms. The final model showed that the need to work at home and the family - work interference explain 45,6 % of the variance in teachers’ work stress.
