Measurement of Stress

1983
The Stanford acousto-elastic stress measurement program is reviewed in this paper. A computer-controlled scanned transducer system has been used with longitudinal wave and shear wave trnasducers. Recently an EMAT surface wave measurement has also been employed.

The Measurement of Stress

2005
Measuring the level of stress in organizations and the potential risks of stress associated with jobs is an important part of preventing and coping with it. An organization needs to know if any of its employees could be vulnerable or at risk. By measuring stress, employers will raise their awareness of its causes and help those suffering from excessive

Measures of stress in epidemiological research

Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 2010
A comprehensive assessment of psychosocial stress often poses significant challenges due to diversity in conceptualization of stress. Consequently, a number of instruments that measure psychosocial stress, its stressors, and its impact at the individual, organizational, and societal levels have been developed.

The psychopathology and measurement of environmental stress

Community Mental Health Journal, 1967
Recent research on environmental stress is reviewed with emphasis on human subjects and on psychopathology. Theoretical and methodological issues are considered with reference to the need for increased attention to stress in clinical research. A new brief interview procedure for measuring recent and current environmental stress is described.

Interferometric stress birefringence measurement

Applied Optics, 1992
We describe a sensitive method for measuring the stress birefringence of an optical window that utilizes a phase-measuring Fizeau interferometer incorporating a variable retarder and a nonpolarizing beam splitter. When we test a material in an interferometer cavity, the wave front transmitted through the material is deviated by the surfaces ...

Stress measurement by electrical means

Electrical Engineering, 1946
THE ADVENT of electric strain gauges1 suitable for the measurement of mechanical performance on a strength basis not only has widened the field of the electrical engineer with regard to equipment and techniques but gradually has imposed upon him a responsibility to the aeronautical or mechanical engineer in his role as interpreter.

Measuring Stress in Police Officers

Psychological Reports, 1988
Based on interviews with all 27 members of a police department, 15 sources of stress were identified, such as lack of leadership, lack of support from the courts, and poor pay. Police officers rated each of these sources on a scale of stressfulness from one co four.' The stress of 63 male officers (M,,, = 33.3 yr., SD = 8.0) from two ocher small ...

Measurement of Stress

2018
The assessment of stress is essential in clinical approaches as well as in psychosomatic research, particularly for exploring the relationship between stress and diseases. Such assessment has been done in terms of stimulus-oriented, response-oriented, and interaction-oriented measurement.

Measures of Stress

2019
In this chapter, we abandon the purely kinematic aspects of the motion of bodies and will focus on the actual forces causing the motion. Two distinct types of forces are recognised in continuum mechanics: body forces are conceived as acting on the particles of a body, and the surface (or contact) forces as arising from the action of one part of a body ...
