This procedure allows us to record stress in everyday life with a compact pocket computer in a process-related way close to the event. Cogniti ve , affective and behavioral aspects are considered. At present th e procedure is being validated with data from a process -oriented questionnaire developed beforehand a nd conceived on the sam e theoretical basis. Effects of reactivity and influences of variables concerning defence styl es and self-attentiveness are tested.
