Abstract
AbstractThis paper investigates the construct validity of the psychological well‐being subscale of the ASSET (An Organizational Stress Screening Tool) stress measure. The data is taken from a study looking at the stress experienced by the social workers and supporting administration workers within a social work department of a UK local authority. The results indicate that the scale has good convergent validity with an existing measure of minor psychiatric disorders, the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ12). It is concluded that ASSET is a comprehensive stress measurement tool with clear benefits for both research and clinical and organizational practice surrounding the experience of work‐related stress.
