The Development of a Short-Term Stress Management Programme for Students.
du Toit, B. H.
South African Journal of Higher Education, v10 n1 p175-82 1996
In response to perceived need, the University of Pretoria (South Africa) implemented a stress management program for students using relaxation and visualization techniques and emphasizing development of study skills. Case studies of six participants in 1986 found both quantitative and qualitative improvement in all stress management areas except locus of control. Video and computer programs were developed from the program. (MSE)
