Abstract

The link between work injuries and mental health challenges significantly impacts individuals, organizations, and society. However, an integrated understanding of their relationship is lacking due to fragmented research across various disciplines. Drawing from uncertainty in illness theory, our comprehensive meta‐analysis (147 samples, N = 1,457,562) clarifies the bidirectional relationship between work injuries and mental health challenges. We estimate the average strength of the association, compare temporal ordering (work injuries preceding mental health challenges, and vice versa), explore underlying mechanisms, and identify potential moderating factors. Results from a random‐effects model reveal a moderate association between work injuries and mental health challenges (k = 147, ρ = .21, 95% CI = .19, .24, 95% CR = −.11, .50). Notably, the relationship is stronger when work injuries precede mental health challenges (k = 40, ρ = .23, 95% CI = .18, .29, 95% CR = −.10, .52) compared to the reverse (k = 18, ρ = .11, 95% CI = .03, .19, 95% CR = −.23, .42). Negative cognitions and perceived job demand underlie the bidirectional relationships between work injuries and mental health challenges. These findings highlight the interconnected nature of work injuries and mental health challenges, illustrating the need for comprehensive rehabilitation approaches that integrate physical and psychological care, and paving the way for future research and interventions.
工伤与心理健康挑战:双向关系荟萃分析
工伤与心理健康挑战之间的联系对个人、组织和社会都有重大影响。然而,由于各学科的研究各自为政,人们对二者之间的关系缺乏全面的了解。借鉴疾病的不确定性理论,我们的综合荟萃分析(147 个样本,N=1,457,562)阐明了工伤与心理健康挑战之间的双向关系。我们估算了这种关联的平均强度,比较了时间排序(工伤先于心理健康挑战,反之亦然),探索了内在机制,并确定了潜在的调节因素。随机效应模型的结果显示,工伤与心理健康挑战之间存在中度关联(k = 147,ρ = .21,95% CI = .19,.24,95% CR = -.11,.50)。值得注意的是,当工伤发生在心理健康挑战之前时(k = 40,ρ = .23,95% CI = .18,.29,95% CR = -.10,.52),两者之间的关系更强,反之亦然(k = 18,ρ = .11,95% CI = .03,.19,95% CR = -.23,.42)。负面认知和感知到的工作需求是工伤与心理健康挑战之间双向关系的基础。这些发现凸显了工伤与心理健康挑战之间的相互关联性,说明了综合身心康复方法的必要性,并为未来的研究和干预措施铺平了道路。
