How business professionals view their stress.
Differences in stress for business professionals by sex, age, marital status, stress levels, job classification, having children and pets were investigated. Subjects were 80 business professionals who responded to the Tennessee Stress Scale-L inventory which provides three subscales (Stress Producers, Coping Mechanisms, and Stress Symptoms) and Total Stress. Significant differences were found between 40 men and 40 women and among stress level groups on Stress Producers, Stress Symptoms, and Total Stress scores.
