Does Elevated Job Stress Affect Smoking Levels?:
A 70 page expanded version of a much smaller paper
researching the hypothesis that smokers in high-stress jobs
tend to smoke more in response to stress than do smokers
in jobs with lower stress levels. Though there was no existing
research with which to guide the study, it still obtains solid and
statistically valid results that unquestioningly prove that a
smoker's response to a high-stress job is that of smoking
more than usual. Existing literature emphasizes the relationship
between stress and depression, and also that between smoking
and depression. Biochemical and psychological research has
concluded that there is a strong relationship between smoking
and clinical depression, though it is unclear which contributes
to the other. This survey does not specifically address depression,
but it does give valuable insight to the relationship of stress-related
smoking and workplace stress. Includes 4 charts and 4 tables.
