Research topic:

The research group investigates the effects of work related stress on physical and mental health, and the possibilities of the prevention or the reduction of the negative health effects. For this purpose our workgroup develops and/or validates relevant questionnaires, performs epidemiological research, develops and implements stress management interventions, and studies their efectiveness. Several doctoral works are related to this topic: Szilvia Ádám (2009), Gyöngyvér Salavecz (2011), Zoltán Cserháti (PhD student), Katalin Nistor (PhD student), Anikó Nistor (PhD student). Our workgroup has created an information website about work stress: www.munkahelyistresszinfo.hu, and a free on-line questionnaire, recommended by the National Labour Office, that measures psychosocial stress at the workplace www.munkahelyistresszkerdoiv.hu . More information about the stress management interventions can be found at www.eletkeszsegek.hu .
