| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this investigation has been to examine the relationships among secondary traumatic stress workplace risk factors and symptoms of depression in probation officers. The results from over 167 adult probation officers who participated in The Road Back to Wellness: Stress, Burnout and Trauma in Corrections (Fisher, 2001), a 2-day live workshop coordinated through the Justice Institute of British Columbia was explored. The intentions of the statistical exploration were to aid in data interpretation and to discover whether these variables were explainable in terms of any underlying predictors. This study is part of the journey for exploring, identifying and explaining factors related to secondary traumatic stress and depression. It is ultimately designed to assist the B. C. Community Corrections Branch in gaining insight from the results of the workshop as well as for targeting clinical and organizational interventions for managing work-related secondary traumatic stress and associated symptoms. | |
