摘要

目前进行了相关研究，以评估女性警官的工作场所骚扰、工作负荷过重和心理困扰之间的关系。据推测，工作场所骚扰、工作负荷过重和心理困扰之间存在正相关关系。该样本由100名年龄在21-40岁之间的女警察组成，她们是通过有目的的抽样技术从拉合尔的不同警察局和培训中心挑选出来的。自我翻译的乌尔都语版负面行为问卷（Einarsen，Hoel，&Notelaers，2009）、Reilly的角色过载量表（Reilly，1982）和Kessler心理困扰量表（Kessler et al.，2009）用于评估研究变量。相关分析表明，工作场所骚扰与工作负荷和心理困扰呈正相关。此外，回归分析显示，工作场所骚扰是心理困扰的积极预测因素。这项研究对警察制定骚扰控制策略和有效的工作时间以减少女性员工的心理困扰和促进健康的工作环境具有启示意义。

Workplace Harassment, Work Overload, and Psychological Distress in Female Police Officers

Current correlational study was carried out to assess the relationship among workplace harassment, work overload, and psychological distress in female police officers. It was hypothesized that there would be a positive relationship between workplace harassment, work overload, and psychological distress. The sample comprised of 100 female police officers with age range from 21- 40 years selected from different police stations and training centers of Lahore by using purposive sampling technique. Self-translated Urdu version of Negative Acts Questionnaire (Einarsen, Hoel, & Notelaers, 2009), Reilly’s Role Overload Scale (Reilly, 1982), and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (Kessler et al., 2009) were used to assess study variables. Correlational analysis revealed that workplace harassment was positively correlated with work overload and psychological distress. Moreover, regression analysis revealed that workplace harassment was a positive predictor for psychological distress. The study has implications in police force to develop harassment control strategies and effective work hours to reduce psychological distress and promote healthy work environment for female employees.

期刊介绍： Pakistan Journal of Psychological Research (PJPR) is published biannually by the National Institute of Psychology, Quaid-i-Azam University, Pakistan. Its first issue was published in Summer, 1986. Since then two issues, one in summer and the other in winter, have been appearing every year. The Journal provides an outlet for fully documented researches addressing educational, social, developmental, and other areas of Psychology. Preference is given to empirical articles, which deal with the application of psychological knowledge in understanding the problems of national and international importance. The Journal welcomes contributions from all corners. However, participation from the developing countries is eagerly sought in view of its under-representation in research journals published in the West. The PJPR maintains an international editorial board of Consulting Editors belonging to different countries, with expertise in a large number of areas. It employs a double-blind reviewing process i.e., the authors are not identified to reviewers and reviewers are not made known to authors. The contents of PJPR are being abstracted by the Proquest, and in PsycInfo. PJPR is included in the List of Social Sciences Journals recognized by Higher Education Commission, Pakistan.
