Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate predictors for return to work for people struggling with common mental disorders on sick leave or at risk of sick leave. The first aim of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of a set of statements exploring different conditions at the workplace and assumptions about working with health problems, by investigating the factor structure, reliability and construct validity of these statements. The second aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of the identified factors.
Methods: A total of 797 patients from an outpatient mental health clinic were included in a naturalistic observational study. The study design was longitudinal. The participants filled out self-report questionnaires pre- and post-treatment.
Results: A principal component factor analysis with a varimax rotation identified two factors, Negative beliefs about working with health problems and Support at work, displaying high internal consistency, 0.83 and 0.84, respectively. Separately, both factors were significant predictors of full return to work after treatment. The final multivariable analysis including both factors left Negative beliefs about working with health problems as a significant predictor explaining unique variance.
Conclusions: Negative beliefs about working with health problems and Support at work are important predictors for work status after treatment and should therefore be addressed during treatment for common mental disorders to assist people return to work.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Occupational Rehabilitation is an international forum for the publication of peer-reviewed original papers on the rehabilitation, reintegration, and prevention of disability in workers. The journal offers investigations involving original data collection and research synthesis (i.e., scoping reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses). Papers derive from a broad array of fields including rehabilitation medicine, physical and occupational therapy, health psychology and psychiatry, orthopedics, oncology, occupational and insurance medicine, neurology, social work, ergonomics, biomedical engineering, health economics, rehabilitation engineering, business administration and management, and law. A single interdisciplinary source for information on work disability rehabilitation, the Journal of Occupational Rehabilitation helps to advance the scientific understanding, management, and prevention of work disability.
