Abstract

Objective: The present study was designed to explore the relationship between perceived stress and depression of bus drivers in Jiangsu province and the moderated mediation effects of neuroticism and job burnout on them.
Methods: A total of 1 703 bus drivers finished online questionnaires including the Perceived Stress Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, Beck Depression Inventory, and Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory Brief Version Neuroticism.
Results: (1) Stress perception of bus drivers has a significant positive predictive effect on depression. (2) Job burnout plays a mediating role in the relationship between stress perception and depression. (3) Neuroticism has a moderating effect on the front-half path, back-half path, and direct effect of the mediation model.
Conclusions: Compared with those with low neuroticism, bus drivers with high neuroticism are more likely to suffer from job burnout when they feel stressed, which in turn leads to depression more quickly. Relevant departments can make decisions according to the proposed measures.
