Perceived Stress Scale 壓力知覺量表
(Chinese translation for reference only 中文翻譯僅供參考)
A more precise measure of personal stress can be determined by using a variety of instruments that have been designed to help measure individual stress levels. The first of these is called the Perceived Stress Scale.
The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) is a classic stress assessment instrument. The tool, while originally developed in 1983, remains a popular choice for helping us understand how different situations affect our feelings and our perceived stress. The questions in this scale ask about your feelings and thoughts during the last month. In each case, you will be asked to indicate how often you felt or thought a certain way.
這份量表是在詢問在最近一個月來，您個人的感受和想法，請您於每一個題項上作答時，去指出您感受或想到某一特定想法的頻率。雖然有些問題看是相似，實則是有所差異，所以每一題均需作答。而作答方式盡量以快速、不假思索方式填答，亦即不要去思慮計算每一題分數背後之意涵，以期確實反應您真實的壓力知覺狀況。
