Work organization conditions and prescribed psychotropic drug use in Canada: The moderating role of personality traits
Authors: Sabine Saadé and Alain Marchand
Overview
Abstract (English)
This study examined the moderating role of Canadian workers’ personality traits between work organization conditions and prescribed psychotropic drug use. Longitudinal data were derived from Statistics Canada’s National Population Health Survey. Controlling for several cofounding variables, the multilevel analysis revealed that self-esteem, internal locus of control, as well as sense of coherence decreased prescribed psychotropic drug use by 4%, 9%, and 3%, respectively. The results indicated that a worker’s personality traits do not moderate the association between work organization conditions and prescribed psychotropic drug use.
