Abstract
This newly developed stress-management program evolved from study of the three major trends in stress research: psychological, physiological and sociological. Primarily geared to managers in an industrial setting, this program helps the individuals to reduce physiological tension via autohypnosis and alter stress-producing behaviors through a number of cognitive restructuring techniques. A variety of philosophical issues are raised that relate to ‘type A’ behavior focusing on ‘the hurry syndrome’, aggression and a general balance in ‘life tasks’. In addition, there is an educational component and participants are acquainted with their ‘health probabilities’ in terms of life style, weight, smoking and other factors. This multimodal program follows participants over a 2-year period to reinforce psycho-behavioral changes.
