National surveillance of psychosocial risk factors in the workplace: An international overview (2007, background): “Further, recent evidence suggests that acute and chronic workplace stressors have different effects on outcome variables such as traumatic stress, psychological strain, fatigue, and job satisfaction (e.g., Brough, 2004; van der Ploeg, Dorresteijn, & Kleber, 2003).”
Validation of the Job Demands-Resources model in cross-national samples: Cross-sectional and longitudinal predictions of psychological strain and work engagement (2013, background): “The literature acknowledges that the inclusion of job-specific job demands, in addition to generic job demands, are valuable in the prediction of work-related health and performance outcomes (e.g. Brough, 2004; Brough and Frame, 2004; Tuckey and Hayward, 2011).”
Managing Occupational Stress in a High-Risk Industry (2007, methodology): “…progressed the most within the police stress literature where measures of specific job stressors experienced by police officers have demonstrated a better ability to account for adverse psychological outcomes in comparison with more generic job demands measures (Brough, 2004; Hart et al., 1993).”
Police suicide: prevalence, risk, and protective factors (2013, background): “Research has also suggested that the police organizations have generally been unsupportive and unresponsive to employee needs (Brough, 2004; Carlier et al., 1997; Plaxton-Hennings, 2004; Violanti and Aron, 1995).”

Employees without a Cause: The Motivational Effects of Prosocial Impact in Public Service (2008, background): “…is possible that employees may feel overwhelmed by excessive pressure and responsibility (Bolino and Turnley 2005; Grant 2008b), manipulated by managerially driven interventions (Alvesson and Willmott 1992), or traumatized by exposure to severe distress of beneficiaries (Brough 2004; Regehr 2001).”
Doing Good at Work Feels Good at Home, but Not Right Away: When and Why Perceived Prosocial Impact Predicts Positive Affect (2012, background): “These jobs offer considerable opportunities to experience prosocial impact, but at the same time, they are highly stressful (Brough, 2004; Halpern et al., 2009) and therefore require that employees capitalize on the positive experiences they encounter in their daily work (see Folkman & Moskowitz,…”
