Quality of Life in Riot Police: Links to Anger, Emotion Regulation, Depression, and Anxiety

Modelling the factors affecting Quality of Life among Indian police officers: a novel ISM and DEMATEL approach

“…The revealed factors are like those found in other similar studies. Our findings are consistent with findings of the previous studies like da Silva, Hernandez [ 24 ], who recommended that Military Police personnel should exercise regularly to improve their “physical fitness, health, job performance, and quality of life.” High levels of job stress or occupational stress are relatively more common among police officers who are depressed, and those who are depressed have a lower QOL in broad sense [ 2 , 21 ].…”

Emotional labor, occupational identity and work engagement in Portuguese police officers

Occupational Stress and Anger: Mediating Effects of Resiliency in First Responders

“…Smith et al ( 2005 ) found that occupational stress increased cardiovascular symptoms via anger.
