Product Information

Comprehensive Stress Management integrates research and theories concerning the inevitable occurrence of stress, with an emphasis on the interrelation of stress and illness. It empowers students to learn what stress is, evaluate their level of stress, and apply to their own lives the tools and skills to manage that stress. The book examines a variety of topics relevant to college students, including intrapersonal and interpersonal stressors; physiological reactions to stress; spirituality and stress; occupational stress; and family stress. Lab Assessments at the conclusion of each chapter help students relate what they have learned to their personal lives by encouraging them to identify specific attitudes, behaviors, and coping skills as well as target areas for improvement.

McGraw Hill eBooks and digital platforms use an Evergreen delivery model with a release-centered process that makes it easy to keep courses fresh, engaging, and relevant.
