Summary
One of the biggest barriers to recognition, prevention, and treatment of stress-related disorders has been the troubled waters of stress measurement. This chapter describes the dilemmas faced by anyone who tries to carefully measure the stress process to guide clinical care. Some of these dilemmas are rooted in the complexities of the stress response system itself. And this chapter describes the options for simple stress measurements.
