Abstract
Summary. One hundred and twenty‐seven schoolteachers completed the Teacher‐Event Stress Inventory (TESI) (a measure of self‐reported teacher stress) and the Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire (MHQ) (which provides scores on six scales measuring aspects of clinically recognised psychoneurotic status: anxiety, phobic, obsessional, somatic, depressive and hysterical). The correlations between TESI scores and each of the MHQ scale scores were presented separately for male and female teachers. Eleven of the 12 correlations were positive and significant. These indicated an association between self‐reported teacher stress and psychoneurotic symptoms which appeared to be greatest in the areas of anxiety, somatic and depressive symptoms.
