Looks like they made up some list of things they think should be stressful, gave them arbitrary point values, and scored each occupation.
The authors of the study are CareerCast.com. Not exactly an authority.
No doubt, being a soldier or a firefighter has got to be stressful. But this "study" won't prove it.
- skwirl 13y agoSince "stress" is rather subjective, I don't know what study would ever prove it.
- bollockitis 13y agoOne could correlate stress with things like depression, suicide, anxiety disorders, divorce, addiction, etc, but that would be a very difficult study to perform.
- normloman 13y agoCould you measure employee's cortisol levels throughout their work day? Is that feasible?
