Answer to Question 2
ANSWER:
There are six major steps in a stress-coping program. The first step (assessment) involves identifying the sources and effects of the stress. The second step (goal setting) involves identifying which stressors are changeable and which are not and then setting goals appropriate to reducing the effects of the stressors. The third step (planning) requires coming up with a specific sequence of steps to take to reduce stress. The fourth step (action) involves actually implementing the steps that have been planned. The fifth step (evaluation) involves determining whether the program has produced results. The final step (adjustment) involves the alteration of the coping program, if necessary to achieve better results.
