Abstract

A method of managing and controlling stress in a person engaged in a goal oriented, cognitive task involves simultaneous measurement of a physical parameter of the person which varies in accordance with the level of the person's stress and the productivity of the person performing the task. A programmed computer calculates the stress point for the person beyond which productivity decreases and provides a visual display of the physical parameters and stress point on a cathode ray tube.
