  abstract = {A straight relationship between stress and outcomes is well documented, but scarce studies adequately tested the range of mediated, moderated and additive effects of variables on outcomes that may strengthen or weaken this relationship. The present study based on Bass Model of Leadership, investigating the moderating impact of transformational and laissez-faire leadership on job stress and health relationship. The study also examines the predicting role of leadership and different role stressors with reference to health. The study was carried out on a randomly selected sample of 240 (88 males and 152 females) medical doctors. They were administered questionnaires including Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), Role Stress Inventory (RSI) and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ). Multiple hierarchical regression analyses revealed that transformational and laissez-faire leadership styles significantly moderate the relationship between stressors and health. Furthermore, multiple regression analyses indicated that role ambiguity and role conflict have significant impact on health, whereas, role overload showed no significant effect.
