Stress--The Individual and the System.

Reed, Bruce D.

Educational Management & Administration, v13 n2 p82-89 Sum 1985

Challenges popular conceptions of stress as a negative condition, arguing that reasonable amounts of stress are necessary and desirable. Explains how stress-causing relationships between individuals and their environments can be perceived positively as relationships between role-occupying persons and the systems in which those roles have vital functions.
