It is widely recognized that stress-management is an indispensable factor to stay healthy in modern life. When starting stress-management program, it is preferable to measure stress levels and the level of stress tolerance. However, there is no reliable inventory to measure psychosocial stress. In view of this, the inventories to measure psychosocial stress and stress tolerance (IMPS and IMST, respectively) have been developed. IMPS is a 40 item-questionnaire designed to self assess psychosocial stress by asking physical symptoms and psychological responses caused by psychosocial stress. IMST is a 20 item-questionnaire designed to self assess stress tolerance by asking social support, life style and attitudes toward life. The validity and reliability of the inventories evaluated with 827 Japanese college students indicate that IMPS and IMST can be used to measure psychosocial stress and stress tolerance.
