Özet

Objective: Beside the well-established biological and behavioral risk factors, psychosocial factors have been accepted as important risk factors for coronary heart diseases (CHD). While there is abundant evidence for the association between job strain and CHD in developed countries, more research needed on this association in developing countries. This study aims to examine the association between job strain and the risk of CHD and metabolic syndrome among the 30-64-year-old employed individuals.
