Which kinds of work stress are related with which types of depression? Workplace satisfaction and subtypes of depression in rural Australians

Abstract

Although the association between Job Satisfaction (JS) and depression has been reported at a global level, relatively little is known about that relationship in terms of specifi c aspects of JS and subtypes of depression. To investigate this issue, eighty-eight employed participants from rural Australia answered questionnaires about JS and depression, plus background factors such as hours worked at paid employment and at unpaid employment.
