The two main psychosocial models on work and CVD
The job strain model
– demands– control– support
The effort reward imbalance model
– effort (extrinsic)
– rewards (money, esteem, career opportunities)– personality (instrincis effort – overcommitment)
Good – but not excellent – empirical support for the two models

Issues in research
and prevention
![Page 16: Tage S. Kristensen Psychosocial Department National Institute of Occupational Health Copenhagen, Denmark 27th International Congress on Occupational Health.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051018/56649e445503460f94b38294/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The cardiovascular tradition from Framingham and onwards.
Physiological:
• Cholesterol
• Fibrinogen
• Triglycerides
• Glucose
• Blood pressure
• Heart rate
• Obesity
Behavioral:
• Smoking
• Physical inactivity
• Type A
• Salt intake
• Diet
• Alcohol
Risk factors are individual.
![Page 17: Tage S. Kristensen Psychosocial Department National Institute of Occupational Health Copenhagen, Denmark 27th International Congress on Occupational Health.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051018/56649e445503460f94b38294/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The individualistic bias of cardiovascular epidemiology and prevention
Sampling: Representative samples of individuals
Variables: Physiological and behavioral factors
Risk factors: Individual characteristics (e.g. high cholesterol) or behaviors (e.g. smoking)
Preventionstrategies: Interventions aiming at the individual:
High risk intervention or mass intervention
![Page 18: Tage S. Kristensen Psychosocial Department National Institute of Occupational Health Copenhagen, Denmark 27th International Congress on Occupational Health.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051018/56649e445503460f94b38294/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The missing connection between cardiovascular and occupational medicine
Occupational medicine
focuses on:
Cancer Lung diseases Musculoskeletal disorders Reproductive disorders Allergies– but not CVD
Preventive cardiology
focuses on:
Tobacco Cholesterol Blood pressure Physical activity Diet– but not work environment
![Page 19: Tage S. Kristensen Psychosocial Department National Institute of Occupational Health Copenhagen, Denmark 27th International Congress on Occupational Health.](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051018/56649e445503460f94b38294/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The basic dimensions of stressors at work
The ”Copenhagen Stress Model”
• Influence (with regard to the conditions of daily work)
• Meaning(purpose and connection to the overall production)
• Predictability(relevant information about future changes and events)
• Social support(from supervisors and colleagues)
• Rewards(salary, appreciation, and possibilities for a good and secure future)
• Demands(quantitative and qualitative)
