工作中忍氣吞聲易患心臟病

　　Men who bottle up their anger at being unfairly treated at work are up to five times morelikely to suffer a heart attack, or even die from one, than those wholet their frustration show, a Swedish study has found。

　　The study by the Stress Research Institute of Stockholm University followed2,755 employed men who had not suffered any heart attacks from 1992 to 2003.

　　At the end of the study, 47 participants had either suffered an attack, ordied from heart disease, and many of those had been found to be "covertly coping" with unfair treatment at work。

　　"After adjustment for age, socioeconomic factors, risk behaviors, job strainand biological risk factors at baseline, there was a close-responserelationship between covert coping and the risk of incident myocardial infarction or cardiac death," the study's authors wrote。

　　Covert coping was listed as "letting thing pass without saying anything" and "going away" despite feelings of being hard done by colleagues or bosses。

　　Menwho often used these coping techniques had a two to fivefold higherrisk of developing heart disease than those who were moreconfrontational at work, the study showed。

　　The researchers said they could not answer the question of what might be aparticularly healthy coping strategy at work, but listed open copingbehavior when experiencing unfair treatment or facing a conflict as"protesting directly," "talking to the person right away," "yelling atthe person right away" or "speaking to the person later when thingshave calmed down."

　　The study was published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health。

　　瑞典一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，在工作中受到不公正待遇時(shí)忍氣吞聲的男性職員患心臟病或死于該疾病的幾率比公開(kāi)表達(dá)不滿的人高五倍。

　　斯德哥爾摩大學(xué)壓力研究所開(kāi)展的此項(xiàng)研究對(duì)2755名男性職員進(jìn)行了跟蹤調(diào)查。這些職員在1992年至2003年間無(wú)心臟病史。

　　但在研究結(jié)束時(shí)，有47名受訪者患上心臟病或死于該疾病。其中很多人在工作中受到不公正待遇時(shí)“忍氣吞聲”。

　　研究人員在報(bào)告中寫(xiě)道：“研究對(duì)年齡、社會(huì)經(jīng)濟(jì)因素、風(fēng)險(xiǎn)行為、工作壓力和生理風(fēng)險(xiǎn)因素進(jìn)行基線調(diào)整后發(fā)現(xiàn)，在工作中忍氣吞聲與繼發(fā)性心肌梗塞以及心源性猝死的患病風(fēng)險(xiǎn)之間存在緊密聯(lián)系。”

　　“忍氣吞聲”指的是盡管感覺(jué)自己受到了同事或老板的不公正待遇，但卻“把事情悶在心里”或“徑自走開(kāi)”。

　　研究顯示，在受到不公正待遇時(shí)經(jīng)常選擇這種處理方式的男性職員患心臟病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)比敢于公開(kāi)表達(dá)不滿的人高二至五倍。

　　研究人員稱，至于在工作中受到不公正待遇或遇到?jīng)_突時(shí)具體采用哪種健康的應(yīng)對(duì)策略這一問(wèn)題，他們也無(wú)法回答，但列舉出了幾種公開(kāi)的應(yīng)對(duì)方式，例如“直接抗議”、“立刻說(shuō)出自己的不滿”、“沖對(duì)方大喊大叫”或者“事后再與對(duì)方交涉”。

　　該研究在《流行病學(xué)與公眾健康》期刊上發(fā)表。
