The Role of Support in Alleviating Stress among Nursing Assistants.
Chappell, Neena L.; Novak, Mark
Gerontologist, v32 n3 p351-59 Jun 1992
Tested the buffering hypothesis that negative effects of stressors (measured as burden, burnout, and perceived job pressure) on nursing assistants (n=245) in long-term care institutions are moderated by social support (at work and external to work). Buffering hypothesis was not confirmed, though some support for a main effects view was found. (Author/ABL)
