Stress Measurement

Stress measurement involves assessing how the body responds to stressors, often through physiological indicators or questionnaires. Common methods include monitoring heart rate, blood pressure, cortisol levels (a stress hormone), or using standardized surveys that evaluate emotional and behavioral responses. These tools help professionals understand the intensity and impact of stress on an individual’s health, guiding appropriate interventions or coping strategies. Effective measurement provides a clearer picture of a person’s stress levels, supporting better management and overall well-being.
