| What is a Stress
Test?
Simply
speaking an emotional stress test
is a series of questions, when answered honestly, assist in measuring
the amount of stress you are experiencing in comparison to other people
who have taken the same test. Additionally, a test such as the one on StressIQ.com
(designed by a medical doctor)
will offer comparison data based on it's own internal stress scale in
addition to a comparative rating against thousands of
completed tests by other anonymous users.
Instructions
- Hopefully you have chosen a time
and place where you will not be disturbed, it's important not to rush
through this test. It should should only take about 15 minutes.
- The following questions are broken down into 10 categories and
relate to your current living circumstances. You should answer them with
the last 6 months in mind. If an item does not seem to apply to you,
just do your best to associate with it.
- You will be asked to rate your feelings on a scale from 1 to 5,
with 1 always meaning; no, false or never and 5 being; yes, true or
always, and of course 2 being almost never, 3 being sometimes, and 4
being most of the time.
- Most of the time you will have an intuitive impression about
where to rate an item and this is usually the most accurate answer for
you. Please remember there is no correct answer and you cannot pass or
fail.
- At the top of every category there is a brief but important
introduction to help you better understand the questions, please read
each of these as you progress through.
Upon completion, you will have the opportunity to create a free
account that offers you the ability to easily retake the test in the future,
review past scores, experience new products, and optionally receive
stress related information. |
