Stress manifestation in high school students: An Australian sample

Stress symptoms associated with main daily hassles were assessed among grades 7, 9 and 11 students in all‐female, all‐male, and coeducational Catholic high schools in Western Sydney, Australia. Factor analysis identified the stress manifestation domains of anxiety, anger, and physiological arousal. Differences in these are examined and a conceptual model of stress manifestation is proposed. Implications of the findings for school‐based stress management programs are addressed.
