Homework: Stress Management Workshop, Evaluation, and Descriptive Narrative
As a health psychology professional, it is likely that you may participate in the analysis and modification of behaviors and thought-processes to improve responses to stress. The components of the Project for this course prepare you to identify the stress management needs of a specific population and provide the most appropriate stress management techniques based on the stressors involved. Another component of the Project provides practice in the development of stress management handouts and a stress management workshop presentation. Then in the last component of the Project you develop a workshop evaluation to analyze the effectiveness of stress management techniques presented in an engaging learning environment, such as a group workshop. Finally, these components of the Project taken together prepare you to assist clients in the adoption of effective stress management techniques to reduce the impact of stress.
