A cross‐sectional study of the association between effort‐reward imbalance and psychologic distress among Japanese dietitians
OBJECTIVES: This study aims to clarify dietitians’ effort‐reward imbalance (ERI) and examine its association with psychologic distress. METHODS: A cross‐sectional survey was conducted. A total of 3593 questionnaires were distributed to dietitians in about 110 organizations and 1890 responses were re...

description | OBJECTIVES: This study aims to clarify dietitians’ effort‐reward imbalance (ERI) and examine its association with psychologic distress. METHODS: A cross‐sectional survey was conducted. A total of 3593 questionnaires were distributed to dietitians in about 110 organizations and 1890 responses were received (response rate 52.6%). Hence, a total of 1743 valid questionnaires were used in the analysis. Effort‐reward (ER) ratio was measured by a subscale of the ERI Questionnaire, and psychologic distress was measured by the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6). The association between the ER ratio and psychologic distress was analyzed by multiple logistic regression analysis with covariates. RESULTS: The mean ER ratio was 0.83 (SD = 0.53) and ERI (ER ratio >1) prevalence was 26.3%. The mean K6 score was 7.1 (5.3), and psychologic distress (K6 score ≥5) prevalence was 62.4%. The increased psychologic distress was associated with a higher ER ratio, less support from supervisors and coworkers, and lower age and household income. ERI was significantly associated with psychologic distress, even after being adjusted for covariates. CONCLUSIONS: Dietitians experience high stress, as shown by their high ER ratio and K6 scores. Their ERI was greatly associated with psychologic distress. |
