description

Abstract Previous research suggests that individual differences play an essential role in the complex process of organisational stress. The mediator role of specific individual differences and coping strategies, in the stressor – strain (effect) relationship is investigated in the present research. One sample of romanian employees (N=311) from an administrative-public service organisation participated in the study. Using the Pressure Managment Indicator (PMI, Williams & Cooper, 1998 ; PMI-RO, Brate, 2004, 2008 ), findings revealed significant mediating interactions between specific socioprofessional pressures and job satisfaction. The results have practical implications for the future research about the diagnosis, prevention, and intervention of stress in organisations.
