Purpose: Job stress is one of the major concerns of workers health. Although a few of job stress measurement tools have been used in many studies. Most measurement tools were developed decades ago. We evaluated the most recently developed job stress tool, Brief Job Stress Questionnaire(BJSQ), and examined whether it could be used for Korean workers.
Method: Using the term ‘BJSQ’, the researcher searched relevant studies in four electronic databases. In this study, the 24 selected studies were reviewed after excluding duplicate studies.
Result: BJSQ had been constantly revised and updated to reflect the changed job environment. Most of the studies using BJSQ were conducted in Japan. The reliability of BJSQ, New BJSQ, and Short Version-New BJSQ (SV-NBJSQ) were reasonable, but the evaluation of validity was insufficient.
Conclusion: New BJSQ and SV-NBJSQ were the most recently developed tools of job stress. Particularly, SV-NBJSQ has 23 items and is easy to apply to busy workers. BJSQ consists of more positive and understandable items. The number of items in Korean Occupational Stress Scale (KOSS) and BJSQ is similar, but includes different items. It would be meaningful to compare the results of job stress evaluation of Korean workers using the two tools. In order to use BJSQ for Korean workers, it is necessary to verify the reliability and validity of the tool for Korean workers.
