While it's true that volatile-pay work is extremely stressful, this seems like a cherry-picked study to be able to write a flashy headline to people rightly concerned over a hot-button issue. They could have just as easily just said that volatile pay causes anxiety and stress, which IMHO you don't need a study for, just like we don't need a study saying that eating less increases hunger symptoms.
Anxiety and stress itself is a well-known cause of all these above issues, and there are a multitude of other work-related stresses than just volatile pay.
