Publisher's Synopsis
This study examines the role of personality and individual differences in the stress process, highlighting the link between various personalities and demographics in health behaviours and other stress-related outcomes. The volume will explore Type A behaviour, neuroticism, locus of control, hardiness and other individual difference factors such as sex, age, gender and social class. The book brings together current research, not only by reviewing the significant studies, but also by critically assessing their methodological approach, and indicating the direction of future research.
