Occupational Stress among University Administrators.
Blix, Arlene Gray; Lee, Jerry W.
Research in Higher Education, v32 n3 p289-302 Jun 1991
A questionnaire completed by 575 college deans, associate deans, and chairpersons found that misfit between the administrator's motivational style and job demands were related to perceived work stress and the perception of poor coping ability. The perception of poor coping ability was correlated with stress-related illnesses, and misfit was correlated with consideration to change jobs. (DB)
