| Abstract | If parents, school personnel, or other caring adults want to reduce the number of stressors or the amount of stress experienced by school children, these adults must first recognize childhood stress, identify children's stressors, and evaluate the stress. This literature review reveals how adults can accomplish these goals by defining stress, linking stress to health, and reviewing assessment techniques available for use with children. Adult perception still controls both investigation and assessment. Until recently, researchers seldom asked children about their experiences of stress, and research hypotheses came from studies on adult stress. Techniques available for use in assessing stress in children include behavioral observation, physiological assessment, adult rating scales of children, child self-report inventories, and interviews with children. Comprehensive use of these techniques, while including the children's perspective, makes possible the accurate and authentic assessment of stress in children. Reducing stress, thereby maintaining or improving school children's health, can follow. (Contains 38 references.) (Author/SLD) |
