Most Thai women continue to work throughout
their pregnancy; however, little is known about job strain and
its relation to psychological distress. This study aimed to
examine: (1) the direct effects of job strain, perceived workplace
support, perceived family support, and coping strategies
on psychological distress and (2) the moderating effect of
perceived workplace support, perceived family support, and
coping strategies on the relationship between job strain and
psychological distress. Lazarus and Folkman’s transactional
model of stress and coping guided this cross-sectional study.
