Abstract
An integrated structural model of stress in organizations was developed and tested through path analysis. Results provided qualified support for the causal assumptions underlying the model. Role frustration and short lead times were found to be potent stressors. Felt stress and low organizational commitment independently contributed to voluntary turnover.Keywords
