Stress and Stress Management Strategies Among Botswana Women Lecturers.
Loate, Irene M.; Marais, James L.
South African Journal of Higher Education, v10 n2 p92-100 1996
A stress inventory administered to black women faculty at seven Botswana colleges and universities (n=201) found the greatest stressor to be student class boycotts, followed by uncertainties about their institution's future and dual roles. Almost two-thirds experienced fatigue. The most successful stress management technique was positive thinking. A relationship was found between time management and number of children. (Author/MSE)
