Major life events and daily hassles were examined in a sample of 102 university undergraduates. While the major clusters of events were related to personal loss, life-style changes, family conflict, and personal insecurity, those of hassles were related to drudgery and uncontrollable environmental irritants, personal concerns, time and work management, minor routine expenses, and the dilemma of emigration. Using life events and hassles, and hassle clusters added significantly to the sensitivity of the concurrent prediction of undifferentiated and differentiated physical and psychological symptom criteria, and consistently showed better performance as predictors. However, the independent contributions of events and event clusters could hardly be discounted. The combined effects of major discrete and minor chronic stress on health status and the limitations of the present retrospective study were discussed.
对102名大学本科生样本进行了重大生活事件和日常烦恼的调查。重大事件的主要类别与个人损失、生活方式改变、家庭冲突和个人不安全感有关，而烦恼的类别则与繁重乏味且无法控制的环境刺激因素、个人担忧、时间和工作管理、小额日常开支以及移民困境有关。使用生活事件和烦恼，以及烦恼类别，显著提高了对未分化和已分化的身体及心理症状标准进行同时预测的敏感性，并且始终显示出作为预测指标的更好表现。然而，事件和事件类别的独立作用也不容忽视。讨论了重大离散压力和轻微慢性压力对健康状况的综合影响以及本回顾性研究的局限性。
