背景技术背景：本研究的目的是验证挪威版的努力-回报不平衡问卷（ERI-Q）。方法：1803名挪威中型城市的员工回答了ERI-Q，并检查了与健康相关的变量，如自我报告的一般健康状况，心理困扰，肌肉骨骼投诉和工作相关的倦怠。声音的心理特性被发现为这个挪威版本的ERI-Q。当对四种类型的员工进行ERI和过度承诺两个维度的分析时，结果表明，ERI和过度承诺的高价值组合的员工比其他人更不利的健康得分。低努力回报和过度承诺分数的员工有更有利的健康分数。员工的过度承诺和努力-回报的规模，应该有相反的影响健康（即，低过度承诺与高的努力-回报的分数，反之亦然）的分数，有健康分数之间的某处其他两个groups.CONCLUSION：满意的心理测量特性被发现的大部分潜在因素的ERI-Q。研究结果还表明，它可能是富有成效的，以探讨员工的健康状况与不同的组合的努力回报和过度承诺。
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to validate a Norwegian version of the Effort-Reward Imbalance Questionnaire (ERI-Q).METHODS: One thousand eight-hundred and three employees in a medium-sized Norwegian municipality replied to the ERI-Q, and health-related variables such as self-reported general health, psychological distress, musculoskeletal complaints, and work-related burnout were examined.RESULTS: Sound psychometric properties were found for this Norwegian version of the ERI-Q. When the two dimensions of ERI and overcommitment were analyzed in four types of employees, the results showed that employees characterized by a combination of high values on ERI and overcommitment had more unfavorable health scores than others. Employees with low effort-reward and overcommitment scores had more favorable health scores. Employees with scores on the overcommitment and the effort-reward scales that are supposed to have opposite effects on health (that is, the combination of low overcommitment with a high effort-reward score and vice versa), had health scores somewhere in between the two other groups.CONCLUSION: Satisfactory psychometric properties were found for most of the latent factors in the ERI-Q. The findings also indicate that it may be fruitful to explore health conditions among employees with different combinations of effort-reward and overcommitment.
