High and low stress at work: Case of World War II

If the boss tries to defend the stress, is the worker in a stressful environment better? Or what if your boss plays and emphasizes stress? The answer depends on the specific situation of manpower and boss. But in one context, for any evidence and speculative answer ODED STARK provides “stress in the air: speculation.” (Economic and human biologyDecember 2024). In green:

1949 Study American soldier: Battle and the aftermathVolume II, Stouffer et al. In order to solve this stress during World War II, we will present a detailed explanation of the US fighter pilot’s attitude toward the policies and practices of the US Air Force Command. 2022 ager et al. It can be used to document the side and influence on the stress of the German fighter pilot and to identify the response to the German Air Force Command during World War II. Based on these two studies, in this paper, I have a fighter pilot stress profile in the two Air Force. The figure that appears is that there is a distinct difference between the approach of the two commands. Because of this diversity, the US Air Force Command explicitly gave up and reduced the stress of the fighter pilot, but the German Air Force Command guessed the stress of the fighter pilot, implicitly cultivated and designed.

The Stark pointed out that the US Air Force Command is well aware of how the performance is reduced through the stress and additional missions experienced by the fighter pilot. They tried to solve stress in various ways. One way was to set the limit. “The limit of the mandatory tour of the fighter pilot was a 300 -hour battle flight, which was generally achieved in an active combat work of six to seven months.” This limit was pre -published and socially sanctioned. In addition, Stark quotes Stauffer for the continuous evaluation of the fighter pilot. As soon as an anxiety reaction to combat flight was found, the man was immediately removed from the combat obligation as a fighter pilot. ” -The people removed from the combat duty can be assigned by less dangerous flight. Lastly, the US flight attendants were rewarded in terms of completed total mission, and medals were generally awarded after the mission tour was completed, not whether the specific mission was particularly dangerous.

During World War II, the German Aviation Command took a different approach. It encouraged competition among fighter pilots, and partially decorated and promoted, depending on whether the mission was particularly dangerous. Stark adds: “STOUFFER et al. Studies showed that the US military was well aware of the problem of psychiatric and combat breakdowns and felt compassion (in 1943, until 1943, or in a private hospital closer to the treatment of psychiatrists), the German army was not hostile to mental breakdown.

It is easy to assume why the organization can take a different approach to stress management. In any context (financial market?), Some kinds of risks can be especially conservative. In the exhibition, the attacker may have a reason to encourage risk supervision. On the other hand, the party will want to handle the stress (expecting a surge in war production) differently. Even before the war began, the culture of creating an American fighter pilot in World War II would have been quite different from the culture of producing a German fighter pilot.

Therefore, the point of the stark does not mean that there is no best approach to the organization to motivate workers in a stressful environment. However, it may be useful to explicitly think about whether a given work environment pursues stress or stress increase and whether a trade off can occur.
