PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

To determine the associations of the prevalence of hostility and stress at work among women in an open urban population.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

A cross-sectional epidemiological study was conducted on a representative sample of women aged 25-64, formed on the basis of electoral lists of citizens of the city of Tyumen in the amount of 1.000 people, the response was 70.3%. Determination of levels of hostility and some parameters of stress at work was carried out according to the standard WHO questionnaire MONICA-psychosocial.

RESULTS

Among the women of the open population of a medium urbanized city of Western Siberia, a significant prevalence of hostility was determined. In the 5th decade of life, a consistent trend was established for the priority of a high level of hostility over its average level and an average level of hostility over its low level. Manifestations of stress at work over the period of the previous 12 months were taken into account on the basis of the following parameters: about 35% of women noted a change in specialty, responsibility at the workplace as high, more than 50% of women demonstrated a positive attitude towards their work. The age trend showed a significant increase from the 4th to the 5th and from the 6th to the 5th decade of life in terms of the change in specialty. In women of the open urban population with a high level of hostility, associations with stress at work were revealed — minimal dynamics in changing the specialty, increased responsibility with the most positive attitude towards work.

CONCLUSION

The revealed associations of a high level of hostility with factors of chronic social stress will help to outline ways of preventing cardiovascular diseases in women in a medium-sized city of Western Siberia, taking into account the identified trends.
