Abstract:
This paper describes the construction of a self-report checklist designed to examine experiences of stressful routine occupational events and life events, coping responses and psychological distress among law enforcement officers. The checklist items were derived from existing scales and are designed to examine a cognitive phenomenological model of stress and coping and testing the goodness of fit hypothesis.
