CUEVAS-TORRES, Marilis  and  GARCIA-RAMOS, Tania. Análisis crítico de tres perspectivas psicológicas de estrés en el trabajo: Three Psychological Perspectives of Job Stress. Trab. soc. [online]. 2012, n.19. ISSN 1514-6871.

The purpose of this article is to critically examine three psychological perspectives of job stress. A literature review showed that these perspectives are the most frequently cited. The perspectives include two models of job stress: the demand control model and the effort-reward imbalance model; and one general theory of stress: the transactional theory. For each perspective, we present a general description, followed by a critical analysis of both the notions of humans and work. At the end of the article, we reached a conclusion for the critical analysis.

Keywords : Job stress; Critical análisis.
