Individual Stress Management Interventions:: Evaluation of Techniques

Abstract

With the increased interest in work‐related stress that has evolved in the last several years has come a corresponding interest in stress management techniques and interventions. The effectiveness of four individual stress management techniques (relaxation training, biofeedback, cognitive techniques, and exercise) are considered and some of the weaknesses of much of the current stress management evaluation research are identified. Finally, some suggestions are made for improving the overall quality of such research.
