摘要
The main purpose of the present study was to investigate the alleviation effect of daily uplifts (positive incidents) on the stress responses of college students. A new "Daily Hassles and Uplifts Scale" was designed and administered along with the Stress Response Scale, in order to examine the effect of daily hassles and uplifts on the stress responses of college students. The Daily Hassles and Uplifts Scale is composed of 40 items; factor analysis revealed that it consists of 6 factors : Hassles in Relation to Oneself, Hassles in Personal Relations, Hassles in College Life, Hassles in Private Life, Uplifts (positive incidents) in Relation to Oneself, and Uplifts in Personal Relations. Multiple regression analysis supported previous results that showed that an increase in daily hassles harms health. The present study also found that an increase in daily uplifts promotes health.
