Study employs a pretest/posttest control-group design and uses the Teacher's Stress Inventory (TSI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) to assess the effects of a five-week standardized meditation (SM) class on the perceived occupational stress of full-time teachers. Results support hypothesis that SM significantly reduces teachers' perceived stress even when used only two to five times per week. (Author/JDM)
