- Non-patients attributing annoyance to either smells (smell annoyed; SA, n= 29) or electrical equipment (electrically annoyed; EA, n= 17), or both (generally annoyed; GA, n= 38), were monitored for 2 weeks through daily self-ratings of arousal (stress), sleep disturbances, health complaints, worry about hypersensitivity reactions, avoidance behaviors, and attributions of health complaints to electrical equipment and smells. In parallel, a demographically matched reference group was followed (n= 56). GA persons reported higher arousal (stress), more subjective health complaints, and more sleep disturbances than the other groups. About 60% in the GA and EA groups reported intentional avoidance behavior, compared to 31% in the SA group and 2% of the referents. Worry and attribution to environmental factors was also more frequent among GA persons than in the other groups. Thus, even at sub-clinical levels, environmental annoyance generalized to several triggers seems to be associated with behaviors commonly observed among patients with idiopathic environmental intolerance.

Aktuell forskning i Arbets- och organisationspsykologi vid Institutionen för Psykologi, Lunds Universitet

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- I denna text skisseras forskningen vid avdelningen för Arbets- och organisationspsykologi vid Institutionen för Psykologi, Lunds Universitet. Avdelningen består idag av två doktorander, ett 10-tal forskare/lärare samt några mer löst tillknutna kollegor. Samarbete sker med flera interdisciplinära forskningsmiljöer på Lunds Universitet. Exempelvis är avdelningen idag representerad i två fakultetsöverskridande forskningsmiljöer: ”Metalund” och ”Centre for Healthy Indoor Environments(CHIE)” vilka primärt samlar forskare från de medicinska och tekniska fakulteterna. Därtill medverkar avdelningen till det nystartade ”SamTech – en tankesmedja om teknik och samhällsvetenskap”. SamTech är ett samarbete mellan Samhällsvetenskapliga fakultetens olika institutioner och syftar till att styrka det samhällsvetenskapliga perspektivet på teknikfrågor. Till dessa samarbeten kan läggas alla de nationella och internationella kontakter som enskilda forskare inom avdelningen har upparbetat genom åren och underhåller via deltagande i olika forskningssamarbeten. Forskningen i arbets- och organisationspsykologi i Lund sker som sig bör i nära samverkan med det omgivande samhället och angränsande akademiska discipliner. Innehållsmässigt speglar forskningen arbetslivets många skiftningar och nyanser samt enskilda forskares varierande intressen och specifika kompetenser. Just nu forskas det bland annat om metoder för att identifiera tidiga tecken på utmattning, skolledares arbetsmiljö och hälsa, lärares arbetsmiljö och hälsa, arbetsmiljöni hemtjänsten, kollegialt stöd och arbetsmotivation, ohövlighet i arbetslivet, kreativt ledarskap och främjande av kreativitet i grupp, bristfälligt ledarskap och skadeprevention. Nedan redogörs kortfattat för några forskningsprojekt som pågår, är nyligen avslutade eller har just påbörjats.

Effects of the implementation of an 84-hour workweek on neurobehavioral test performance and cortisol responsiveness during testing.

Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health. - : Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health. - 0355-3140 .- 1795-990X. ; 29:4, s. 261-269

- OBJECTIVES: This study examined whether long workhours in combination with an extended workweek (12 hours/7 days), as requested by the workers, impaired attention and cognitive performance and whether the degree of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) activation was related to the response to the performance tasks. METHODS: A group of 41 male construction workers between 21 and 60 (mean 39) years of age who worked 84 hours a week, with alternate weeks off, was compared with a group of 23 male construction workers between 24 and 65 (mean 43) years of age who had a traditional 40-hour work schedule. Neurobehavioral test performance, self-ratings of fatigue and sleepiness, and salivary cortisol levels were evaluated in a counterbalanced repeated-measures design. RESULTS: The 84-hour group did not show any signs of reduced test performance or elevated fatigue and sleepiness. The 84-hour group had faster reaction times on day 7 than on days 1 and 5. Although the expected activation of the HPA axis was only found in the total study sample when workdays 1 and 5 were collapsed, the HPA activation can be considered normal. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that an 84-hour work regimen in response to requests from workers does not induce more performance deficits than an ordinary 40-hour workweek. An extended work schedule of 84 hours cannot in the short-term be considered to affect basic mental capabilities negatively.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- There is little research on the personalities and emotional stability of persons who report being bullied or witnessing bullying at work. Men and women (N = 247) from 19 to 64 years of age and in manual labour completed a questionnaire concerning the psychosocial work climate, bullying and personality. Three groups were defined: bullied (N = 14), witnesses (N = 31) and non-bullied respondents (N = 202). The Swedish universities Scale of Personality was used to assess personality traits related to the three major dimensions of neuroticism, extraversion, and aggressiveness. Bullied persons had higher scores on all six scales within the neuroticism dimension as well as higher irritability (aggressiveness dimension) and impulsiveness scores (extraversion dimension), when compared with their non-bullied work colleagues. To conclude, bullied persons display a self-image that is dominated by mistrust and embitterment as well as irritability and impulsiveness. Accordingly, when dealing with bullying at work, the need for ego-supportive actions should be considered in conjunction with more organisational, collective oriented action.
