Guidelines/Instructions
The NIH Toolbox Perceived Stress Survey is a self-report measure administered to ages 13-85, as well as a parent-report measure for ages 8 to 12. Both versions are administered as computer-adaptive tests. It assesses how unpredictable, uncontrollable, and overloaded respondents find their lives. Items administered use a 5-point scale, with options ranging from never to very often. Higher scores are indicative of more perceived stress.
Preferred Question Text
In the past month, please describe how often have you felt difficulties were piling up so high that you could not overcome them?
