升職可能有害健康
While some 13 million Americans are out of work these days, those still with jobs might have a strange new thing to worry about--getting a promotion can be bad for you, a new study suggests。
British researchers found that when people get promoted, they suffer on average about 10 percent more mental strain and are less likely to find the time to go to the doctor。
"Getting a promotion at work is not as great as many people think. Our research finds that the mental health of managers typically deteriorates after a job promotion, and in a way that goes beyond merely a short-term change," said Chris Boyce of the University of Warwick. "There are no indications of any health improvements for promoted people other than reduced attendance at GP surgeries [i.e. doctors visits], which may itself be something to worry about rather than celebrate."
Other research has found stress can be deadly, raising the risk of everything from the common cold to cancer. Other recent revelations about stress:
* Stress makes us forget things.
* Happily married women suffer less stress.
* Job stress in particular has been shown to fuel disease.
Those who were promoted reported on average a 20 percent fall in their visits to a doctor following their promotion. The researchers figure this owed to the stress of the new job and the sudden lack of time。
The research, using data from an annual survey of Brits, included information about about 1,000 people who had been promoted. The findings will be presented later this month at a conference of the Royal Economic Society.

雖然大約有1300萬的美國人現在沒有工作，不過那些有工作的人現在可能要去擔心一件奇怪的事情：根據一項新的研究顯示，升職可能對你有害。
英國的研究人員發現，當人們獲得提升時，他們平均會增加10%的精神壓力，而且還往往找不出時間去看醫生。
“在工作上獲得提升并不像很多人想的那么棒。我們的研究發現，經理的心理健康往往在提升之后下降，而且在某些方面，這不僅僅是個短期的變化。 ”Warwick大學的Chris Boyce說，“沒有任何一種跡象顯示在獲得提升之后，健康水平也會提高。唯一的變化是去看醫生的次數變少了，而這本身可能也是需要擔心而非慶祝的事情。 ”
其他的研究發現，壓力可能是致命的，它會提升包括從普通的感冒到癌癥在內的所有疾病的患病機會。近期發現的其他一些和壓力有關的因素包括：
* 壓力讓我們健忘。
* 婚姻幸福的女性壓力較小。
* 工作壓力尤其容易使疾病惡化。
升職的人表示，升職后他們去看醫生的次數減少了20%。研究者們認為這是由于新工作的壓力和時間的突然減少造成的。
根據英國年度調查資料所進行的這項研究，涵蓋了大約1000名剛獲提升的人。這項研究結果將會在這月底的皇家經濟協會的會議上發表。
