The Relationship between PTSD and Sleepiness on Perceived Stress and Counterproductive Workplace Behavior.

We therefore studied the interaction between PTSD and sleepiness on stress and CWBs. Results indicated a significant positive prediction of perceptions of stress and a linkage between PTSD and CWBs.
