Summary: | This study examined stressors of 274 police officers and associations with coping responses, overall mental health and Asian Subjective Wellbeing (ASWB). Police stressors were identified using in-depth interviews and survey of a representative sample of the Singapore Police Force (N = 10). The main police stressors were Work, Public Expectations, Health, Sleep, Work-Life Integration and Personal stressors. Correlation analyses showed all stressors positively correlated with mental health problems, while only Health, Sleep and Personal stressors were positively correlated with ASWB; all stressors were positively correlated with Problem-Focused, Non-Problem-Focused and Religious-based coping; Problem-Focused coping was positively correlated with ASWB; Non-Problem-Focused coping was negatively correlated with ASWB and positively correlated with mental health problems; Religious-based coping was positively correlated with family ASWB. |
