Economic stressors, alcohol use, and health-related quality of life in middle-aged adults
1359 adults ages 40-61 (65.0% women). High economic stress was associated with poor physical and mental HRQoL, and high community disadvantage was linked to poor physical HRQoL only. High alcohol use predicted high physical and mental HRQoL, and low misuse predicted high mental HRQoL only. There was no evidence of mediation, and gender, age, and race moderated a subset of model paths. The discussion considers future directions for research and im…
Profiles of economic and non-economic chronic stressors at midlife
1541 adults ages 40-61 years (35.5 % male, 48.7 % white) responded to questionnaires. Latent profile analyses revealed five stressor profiles, specifically Low Stressors (46.3 % of the sample), Mixed Stressors (22.7 %), High Sicktime Stressors (14.7 %), High Unemployment Stressors (8.5 %), and High Stressors (7.9 %). Respectively, the Low and High Stressor profiles were the most and least advantaged in terms of demographic risk factors, social su…
Effects of chronic workplace harassment on mental health and alcohol misuse
Background Research on the impacts of exposure to workplace harassment (WH) is largely cross-sectional, and existing prospective studies generally are between two and five years of follow-up, with the longest US study being 10 years. However, the effects of exposure to WH may persist longer, particularly if exposure has been chronic. This study fills this gap by examining effects of prior exposure to chronic sexual and generalized WH on psycholog…
The Enduring Mental Health Effects of Post-9/11 Discrimination in the Context of the Great Recession
While prior study has linked discrimination experienced as a result of 9/11 with economic insecurity within the context of the Great Recession, the mental health effects of this linkage are unexamined. This study examined whether economic insecurity during the recession era helps account for long-term effects of 9/11-related discrimination on symptoms of depression and anxiety using structural equation modeling techniques to assess data from a na…

Macrolevel Stressors, Terrorism, and Mental Health Outcomes
Objectives. We examined the extent to which the stress paradigm linking psychosocial stressors to mental health status has focused disproportionate attention on microlevel social stressors to the detriment of macrolevel stressors. Also, we assessed the effects of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, on subsequent mental health among participants in a Midwestern cohort study. Methods. Respondents in a 6-wave longitudinal mail survey comple…

Effects on Alcohol Use and Anxiety of the September 11, 2001, Attacks and Chronic Work Stressors
Objectives. We hypothesized that chronic stressors associated with an everyday social role (work) would interact with a traumatic macrosocial stressor (the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001) in predicting mental health status (during the fall of 2001). Methods. We used mail surveys returned as part of wave 3 of a workplace cohort study, both before and after September 11, 2001, to assess decision latitude, sexual harassment, generalized wor…
Gender Biases Underlying the Social Construction of Illness States
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a controversial illness of unknown etiology which appears to predominate among women. This article employs a feminist social constructionist perspective to critically assess the biomedical and psychosocial literatures on CFS. The authors argue that the failure to demonstrate a viral etiology of CFS led to a paradigmatic shift in research perspectives. Substantial attention became directed to psychiatric component…
Sexual harassment and generalized workplace abuse among university employees
OBJECTIVES: This study hypothesized that interpersonal workplace stressors involving sexual harassment and generalized workplace abuse are highly prevalent and significantly linked with mental health outcomes including symptomatic distress, the use and abuse of alcohol, and other drug use. METHODS: Employees in 4 university occupational groups (faculty, student, clerical, and service workers; n = 2492) were surveyed by means of a mailed self-repo…

Doing Power
Contrapower sexual harassment occurs when the target of harassment possesses greater formal organizational power than the perpetrator. Traditional conceptualizations of power underlying sexual harassment have either focused on location within organizational hierarchies or sociocultural status differences between men and women. We suggest the utility of simultaneously considering the influence of gender, race, and class on power dynamics at organi…
Politics, science, and the emergence of a new disease
Workplace harassment and the self-medication of distress
Research addressing the social causation of alcohol abuse has alluded to the tension-management or self-medication function of alcohol consumption. The use of alcohol (as well as other substances) can constitute a means to escape from, avoid, or otherwise regulate unpleasant emotions derived from undesirable social experiences (Cooper, Frone, Russell, Mudar,1995; Cooper, Russell, and George, 1988; Pohorecky, 1991; Wilsnack, 1992). This paper addr…
Chronic fatigue syndrome
Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disabling disorder that has been studied primarily in clinical settings. In the absence of an adequate epidemiological database, cultural stereotypes have influenced the characterization of chronic fatigue syndrome as "the yuppie flu," similar to the 19th century characterization of neurasthenia as a disease of the affluent. The limited epidemiological data available and the overall medical-sociological literature ca…

Developing Instruments for Cross-Cultural Psychiatric Research
The growth of cross-cultural psychiatry is now occurring at a time when psychiatry in general is emphasizing diagnostic clarity and the use of quantifiable and reliable methods of collecting clinical and research data. It is now imperative that cross-cultural psychiatry also examine its methods for developing instruments for use in cross-cultural research. This paper outlines a method for developing instruments designed in one culture for use in …

Politics, science, and the emergence of a new disease
Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) emerged as a diagnostic category during the last decade. Initial research suggested that CFS was a relatively rare disorder with a high level of psychiatric comorbidity. Many physicians minimized the seriousness of this disorder and also interpreted the syndrome as being equivalent to a psychiatric disorder. These attitudes had negative consequences for the treatment of CFS. By the mid-1990s, findings from more repr…
