Abstract

This paper aims to study the effect of gender on adoption of the stress management techniques and to compare which of the technique is best as per the views of the respondents from the academia. This quantitative study uses a questionnaire approach to assess the stress management views of academicians of Indore city. For this a sample of 33 academicians were taken. From the results we have found that gender does not affect the efficacy of stress management techniques. We have also conclude that the four stress management techniques have same effect and the difference which is appeared in data is due to chance or is due to fluctuations of sampling. It will be helpful to academicians to improve efficiency and maintain work life balance as well as minimize the stress on the workplace. Whilst a great deal of research has been conducted into the stress management and the techniques, little has examined the stress management of academic people, techniques used and the congruency of the techniques.
