WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Stress-FIE Test - Symptoms and Signs
This self-report measure is designed to provide a brief appraisal of current stress-related burden and its functional impact. Stress-FIE organizes responses into broad domains reflecting physiological, informational, and emotional aspects of stress.
The instrument includes 35 items and typically takes about 7 minutes to complete. Items ask respondents to endorse the frequency or intensity of common stress manifestations, supporting a structured summary of stress across the covered domains.
Stress-FIE may be used in clinical or consultative settings to inform case formulation, guide discussion of stressors and coping resources, and support monitoring of change over time. It is attributed to Richard S. Lazarus and Susan Folkman.
