I’m addressing the premise of your question. If someone’s mental health is affected by technical, then that role is not well suited for them. No one should have to work a job where their mental health is constantly in jeopardy.

Agreed. But you’re using the term mental health as mutually exclusive to mental unhealth (unhealthiness?). I’m asking what the effect size is (assuming that there is an effect) and whether it can be modeled on a curve.

Edit: (addendum). It should go without saying that many people work in environments that are to some degree unhealthy for them and don’t have the luxury of switching.
