Stress in Children — Focus on Eight to Eleven Year Olds

Abstract

Stress has become the industrial disease of the 90s. Wellbeing is the in word used to market products or services when applied to reducing stress and its effect on our general health. In recent years this has been a major topic of interest with over £6 billion every year in the UK being attributed to absenteeism and reduced work performance directly caused by stress. The European Union is now drafting guidelines for member states on the prevention of occupational stress and until now the main emphasis has been towards tackling stress in the workplace.
