title: Stress and the graduate psychology student.
abstract: One hundred seventy-one students from the Minnesota School of Professional Psychology completed the Psychology Student Stress Questionnaire (Cahir & Morris, 1991) and a data sheet that requested gender, year in school, income level, relationship status, age, number of children, and number of hours spent working per week. No significant differences were found between these life situation variables and the amount of stress that the student was reporting. Significant differences in student stress levels were found across the following variables: (1) number of children a student has and relationship status; (2) number of hours a student spends on the job; (3) student's relationship status with a significant other; and (4) student's gender. Implications for training programs and future research were discussed.
