Abstract
This article examines the reliability of the Occupational Stress Indic ator (OSI) in its Chinese version as well as factor structures for thr ee of its scales - stressors, coping and job satisfaction. Estimates o f reliability obtained by item-total correlation coefficients and Cron bach's alphas are quite acceptable. Factor analyses using the principa l components technique have also found psychologically meaningful stru ctures.
