Abstract

Police officers are exposed to operational stressors while on duty, including child abuse, domestic violence, car crashes, and homicides (Jetelina et al. in JAMA Netw Open 3(10), 2020). Repeated exposure to these stressors is associated with the development of mental illness ((Jetelina et al. in JAMA Netw Open 3(10), 2020). Organizational stressors, including lack of support/validation, demand, job pressure, administrative/organizational pressure, and long working hours, may be an even greater source of stress for police officers (Purba and Demou in BMC Public Health, 2019). Exposure to such organizational stressors can result in psychological distress, burnout, and suicidal ideation (Purba and Demou in BMC Public Health, 2019). However, there is a dearth of research on invalidation and the role it plays in the development and maintenance of mental health outcomes among law enforcement officers. It is unclear how invalidation from supervisors, colleagues, and the general public, moderates the relation between occupational stressors and the development of mental health outcomes. The current study is the first attempt to evaluate whether perceived emotional invalidation moderates the relationship between mental health outcomes and occupational stress. Results could inform our understanding of the role emotional invalidation from supervisors, colleagues, and the general public has on the mental health outcomes of law enforcement officers after experiencing occupational stress.

感知到的情感失效是否会调节执法人员的职业压力与心理健康结果之间的关系？

摘要警察在执勤时会面临工作压力，包括虐待儿童、家庭暴力、车祸和凶杀（Jetelina 等人，发表于《美国医学会杂志》网络版 3(10)，2020 年）。反复暴露于这些压力源与精神疾病的发展有关（Jetelina 等人，发表于《美国医学会杂志》网络版 3(10)，2020 年）。组织压力源，包括缺乏支持/认可、需求、工作压力、行政/组织压力和工作时间长，可能是警察更大的压力源（Purba 和 Demou，载于 BMC Public Health，2019 年）。暴露在这种组织压力下可能会导致心理困扰、职业倦怠和自杀倾向（Purba 和 Demou，载于 BMC Public Health，2019 年）。然而，关于无效性及其在执法人员心理健康结果的发展和维持中所起作用的研究却十分匮乏。目前还不清楚来自上司、同事和公众的失效如何调节职业压力与心理健康结果之间的关系。本研究首次尝试评估感知到的情绪失效是否会调节心理健康结果与职业压力之间的关系。研究结果可以帮助我们理解来自上司、同事和公众的情感无效对执法人员在经历职业压力后的心理健康结果的影响。
