Alertness assessed by the psychomotor vigilance test (PVT) is a key dimension of sleep health. Impaired PVT performance is associated with depression and burnout, but its relation to self-rated health (SRH) remains unclear. In this cross-sectional study, 378 physicians (268 men, 110 women) at Juntendo University Hospital completed a questionnaire and a 3-min PVT after duty hours. Participants were dichotomized as \"healthy\" or \"unhealthy\" group based on SRH. PVT lapses (reaction time ≥355 ms) and mean reciprocal reaction time (rRT) were categorized into quartiles. Multivariable logistic regression estimated odds ratios (ORs) for poor SRH with covariates including the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS) and the 20-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D ≥20). Compared with the lowest quartile, the highest quartile of lapses showed an adjusted OR for poor SRH of 4.50 (95% CI, 1.68-12.02), and the lowest quartile of mean rRT yielded an OR of 3.76 (1.36-10.37). These associations remained robust after further adjustment for night-shift duration, snoring, caffeine intake, and either KSS or CES-D. PVT-assessed alertness independently predicts physicians' SRH, suggesting its utility for health monitoring among hospital physicians.","PeriodicalId":13531,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Health","volume":" ","pages":"334-344"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13387843/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145437829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While ample research exists on IPC practices, the majority neglects the psychosocial aspects of work, particularly job characteristics and safety-related organizational climates. This study utilized a two-wave multilevel panel study design with a 4-month interval, involving 379 participants across 23 critical care units in Malaysian hospitals. Grounded in the Conservation of Resources theory, we examined how job demands (i.e., workload, emotional demands, and job complexity) influence IPC practices and how three types of safety climate constructs-safety climate, psychosocial safety climate, and psychological climate-moderate the effects of job demands on IPC. Contrary to our predictions, none of the job demands were directly associated with IPC practices. However, we found that only the safety climate moderated the relationships between workload and job complexity with IPC practices. These findings suggest that each type of safety climate uniquely buffers the effects of specific job demands on IPC practices. Hospital management should implement tailored interventions to serve distinct functions in mitigating the impact of job demands on IPC adherence.","PeriodicalId":13531,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Health","volume":" ","pages":"369-382"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13387842/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145648439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This retrospective cross-sectional study evaluated whether routinely collected physiological indicators could support exploratory stratification of positive TMT responses within a treadmill prioritization (TP) framework. Occupational surveillance records were analyzed among rotational shift workers in the Indonesian oil and gas industry between January 2024 and December 2025. Universal TMT was performed in 3,631 workers (3,544 male, 87 female), with 40 positive TMT responses. Associations were evaluated using multivariable Firth logistic regression, and a reduced exploratory model including hemoglobin and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was internally validated using bootstrapping. Higher hemoglobin was independently associated with lower odds of positive TMT response (adjusted OR 0.73; 95% CI 0.58-0.94). The reduced framework demonstrated moderate discrimination (optimism-corrected AUC 0.72) and visual calibration agreement. Within the derivation cohort, 409 workers (11.3%) were classified as low-risk, with no observed positive TMT responses. These findings suggest physiological reserve markers may provide exploratory stratification information alongside conventional risk indicators. However, the TP framework remains hypothesis-generating and should not modify TMT intervals or reduce testing before external validation.","PeriodicalId":13531,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148430138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Feelings of impostorism, persistent self-doubt, and fear of being exposed as a fraud, despite evident competence, can be detrimental to physicians' mental health and well-being. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and severity of the impostor phenomenon (IP) among physicians, identify its key determinants, and explore its association with job burnout. A total of 730 physicians from various specialties completed a questionnaire that included demographic, occupational, and clinical data, the Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale (CIPS), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory. More than two-fifths (43.6%) of physicians reported frequent or intense impostorism. CIPS scores correlated positively with the emotional exhaustion and depersonalization dimensions of job burnout and negatively with personal accomplishment. In multivariable regression analysis, having only a bachelor's degree, surgical specialization, non-private practice, short work experience (≤5 yr), and high job burnout were independently associated with frequent/intense IP, with adjusted prevalence ratios of 4.9, 1.1, 2.5, 2.3, and 3.1, respectively. These findings underscore the need to raise physicians' awareness of IP and foster a supportive workplace environment, especially for those at higher risk.","PeriodicalId":13531,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148411700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we conducted a questionnaire survey to investigate how social welfare workers perceive the risk of occupational accidents, with a focus on FSLs, and to examine the effects of age on risk perception. Respondents (n=294) rated their estimated likelihood of experiencing five major types of occupational accidents across six levels of injury severity. The results indicated that the FSL risk was not consistently underestimated relative to other accident types. However, when the subjective risk was compared with the objective accident frequency, the non-fatal FSL risk was systematically underestimated, whereas the fatal FSL risk was overestimated. Perceived risk of leaving work for more than 3 months due to non-fatal occupational accidents also decreased with age across accident types, with younger workers reporting the highest estimates and older workers the lowest. These findings suggest that underestimation of FSL risk is specific to certain injury severities and that age-related differences in risk perception are robust. Understanding how workers perceive fall risk may contribute to the development of age-sensitive interventions to improve fall prevention in the social welfare sector.","PeriodicalId":13531,"journal":{"name":"Industrial Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2026-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148368162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
