Perceived Stress in Black and Latino Male Firefighters: Associations with Risk and Protective Factors.

However, there were both differences and similarities in the factors associated to perceived stress among the ethnic groups. Therefore, interventions to help firefighters reduce or manage stress need to take into account that factors associated with perceived stress may vary by ethnic group.
