Acknowledgments From Irvin Sam Schonfeld


The decision to write a book about occupational health psychology has a history, and that history illuminates why the book was written. The story of the book begins several years ago when Nancy S. Hale, who became my editor at Springer, made a surprise visit to my office at City College. She asked me to write a book about occupational health psychology.

I agreed to write the book because I have been conducting research in occupational health psychology (OHP) since before I knew the existence of such a term. I came to the subject matter of what would become OHP as a result of the convergence of a number of influences. One influence, naturally enough, was my own work experience. My first job was that of a math teacher in a dangerous urban public school. In that job, I had informally observed the corrosive effects of job stress, although at the time I had not imagined that one day I would be conducting research on job stress. The job stressors I observed were in the form of disrespectful behavior among students toward teachers, student-on-student violence, and student-on-teacher violence.

I left teaching to pursue a doctorate in developmental psychology. I was particularly interested in cognitive development, and conducted research on the foundations of childrens cognitions about quantity. After earning a PhD, I failed to obtain the academic position I wanted, and took a job as the director of evaluation in the Office of Special Programs in a school district. My job required me to evaluate grant-supported educational programs and, more importantly, to write grant applications to help support new district initiatives. The head of the office, the individual to whom I reported, was a man who was a very effective grant-writerwhich meant that the superintendent would never fire him. He, unfortunately, was a screamer. With a ferocity I hadnt seen outside of a schoolyard, he once berated a secretary; as a result, she broke down in tears in the middle of the office. I observed another woman, the school districts administrator for math programs, someone whom I had personally tried to protect, begin to shake and stammer, and then break into tears
