Models of Shiftwork and Health: An Examination of the Influence of Stress on Shiftwork Theory
Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1997This paper critically reviews models of shiftwork and health and provides a historical overview of changes in the conceptualization of the association between them. Models are hypothetical and conceptually broad, becoming more so as they move away from linear, chronobiological to multidirectional, psychological conceptualizations.
