Ronchi, Don; Sparacino, Jack
Perceptual and Motor Skills, v55 n3 pt 1 p759-70 Dec 1982
The mediating effects of sex, self-monitoring, and environmental perceptions on social density on stress were examined using 53 male and 49 female dormitory residents occupying single or triple rooms. Measures of stress included blood pressure, heart rate and psychosomatic symptomatology. The "counterintuitive" results did not support the hypotheses. (Author/CM)
