How This Calculator Works
This assessment is based on the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), a widely used psychological instrument for measuring the perception of stress. It asks about your feelings and thoughts during the last month.
Your score reflects how unpredictable, uncontrollable, and overloaded you find your life. Higher scores indicate higher perceived stress, which may benefit from stress management techniques or professional support.
