| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this explorative study was to investigate the relationship between
stress and personality type. A sample of 44 adolescents presenting with Grades I, II
and III of acne vulgaris were selected. Measures were collected on the Life Stressors
and Resources Inventory- Youth Form (LISRES-Y) of Moos and Moos (1994) and
the Jung Personality Questionnaire (JPQ) ofDu Toit (1992). The results of this study
indicate that adolescents with acne vulgaris report higher than average stress levels in
certain life domains, and tend to be more introverted than extraverted. Implications of
these findings are discussed. | en_US |
