Examining Job Stress and Satisfaction Among Digital Forensic Examiners

A significant body of research has developed focusing on the occupational reactions of police officers and criminal justice system employees. Few studies have, however, examined the way that digital forensic analysts working with computerized evidence experience and respond to work stress. This study addresses this gap in the literature through an analysis of job satisfaction and stress in the work experiences of a sample of 56 digital forensic analysts. The findings suggest that analysts experience a moderate amount of work stress, high levels of job satisfaction, and utilize prosocial coping strategies to deal with these stresses.
