Cognitive Failure and Job Strain in Naval Personnel
The Naval Service Stress Study (2007-2012) is investigating job strain, its characteristics, causes and distribution in the Service. Data from Phases Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ of the study (Jan 07, Jun 07 and Jan 08) were analysed to determine the relationship between GHQ-12 score, a job strain index measured at all three phases, and scores on the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire (CFQ) completed at Phase Ⅲ. Of 791 personnel who completed questionnaires at every phase, 43.6% had no job strain at any phase, whereas 9.9% had strain on all three occasions (‘chronic strain). High CFQ scores were associated most strongly with the total GHQ-12 score, summated over all three Phases. There was no effect of strain recency on CFQ score. The findings might be interpreted to indicate that a high CFQ score is a vulnerability factor for adverse reactions to work stress. The hypothesis that recent job strain elevates CFQ score was not supported.
