Abstract

This study used a comprehensive occupational-health survey and univariate analyses to identify relationships with demographic variables, perceived stress, Axis I psychopathology, and physical health among public-school teachers. Racial/ethnic differences are present among these groups as Hispanic public-school teachers are more prevalent to developing a psychosocial disorder versus Non-Hispanic public-school teachers.
