By using SCL-90 and EPQ, the research investigated 189 cadets in the epidemic period of SARS.
The result showed:1)The score of 7 factor and total score of SCL-90 of the cadets were higher
than peacetime. 2)The percentages of those who have various mental health problems were
between 1.1% and 10.6%. 3)The score of depression and anxiety of the female cadets was notably
higher than that of the male cadets. 4)There was also difference in personality character between
those who have the mental health problems and those who have not. These findings may
contribute to the mental health education in the army.

To investigate the reliability and validation of the Chinese version of Job Stress Survey (C-JSS),
the two-step process was conducted. First, 106 employees in two cities completed the translated
version of JSS to develop the C-JSS. Second, in a survey with 467 employees in six cities, the
results showed that the Cronbach’s alpha coefficients of C-JSS was .87, and correlated .69 with
the Sources of Stress Scale of the Chinese OSI-2(Occupational Stress Index), and correlated -.32
and -.28 with Mental and Physical Well-Being respectively. These findings indicated that the
C-JSS was reliable and valid for assessing job stress in Chinese society.
