Study since 2005

"When we talk about stress, most people think about how we react to problems that are difficult to deal with. Sometimes these problems are major "life events" that are unexpected or unusual. The family may be having financial difficulties. Parents may be going through a divorce. Teens may be breaking up with a boyfriend or girlfriend. Perhaps the teen has been hurt in an accident. Other problems are more common day-to-day difficulties". We are reading and researching about children about stress, having a temper, or just the way the teen looks at the adult as if the teen knows everything. Ya right!!!!!!!! I have done some reading online and found a research about teen and stress levels I have enclosed the web site for you. Here is the web site http://medind.nic.in/iba/t05/i1/ibat05i1p11.pdf. After reading this, the study was done in one location and not at different colleges at all. Which maybe if they would have tested in different schools, they might have gotten a different scale or even just different reaction by the student or it might have stayed the same, but either case it was one school.

How does stress attacks the body. I found a web site that answers those questions, http://psychcentral.com/news/2010/01/22/how-stress-attacks-the-body/10876.html. Stress is something that we all will go thru and will have for the rest of our lives. There is no one person that does not have some sort of stress. You might think will I don’t have stress but you probably do. You are thinking about a test or if a guy/girl likes you. How do you get her/his phone number? Do I go to work/school? Just simple question that you think of everyday is a stress. You might not know it. Please understand that this is my opinion on my finds and what I have said.

  1. Jenn, good find for a study on stress. I wonder if the study was duplicated for teenagers (highschool students) instead of college aged students if the results would change at all?? Another good research project that could rise out of this would be the exercise study that group four discussed in class.
