Stress

The stress (S) outcomes focus on how to deal with perceived or real mental pressure and tension.

There are three stress outcomes:

• S1: Describe stressors.
• S2: Discuss physiological, psychological and social aspects of stress.
• S3: Evaluate strategies for coping with stress.

Note that any example responses are not necessarily worth full marks, but exist simply to provide an idea of how an example looks.
