How do you handle stress?

The SMQ® (Stress Management Questionnaire) is not a psychological test. It's a tool developed by Stressmaster® to help you gain a general view of how well you are handling the stress in your life.

The SMQ® assesses eight key stress warning signs:

• anger
• perfectionism
• time-urgency
• disappointment
• negative mood
• underachievement
• tension
• physical problems

There is also a companion test that a spouse, friend, or colleague can take to give you a "second opinion" about how well you are doing. Or, you can have friends take the test for themselves then compare your scores to theirs.
