title: [Anti-stress intervention with a health and social service clientele.].
abstract: The present study concerns an anti-stress intervention involving a social and health services clientele. This category of the population represents the individuals who are statistically the most affected by stress. The anti-stress intervention used consists in assisting the individual to work towards the modification of his "stressors" and to permit him to reduce psycho-physiological tension as a result of the practice of progressive relaxation. Results demonstrate that a portion of this clientele is effectively more anxious than the mean of the population and that the intervention permits a significant reduction of situational anxiety as measured by the STAI.
