    • To describe the strategies used to face stress by the group as a whole or by the great majority, in order to correct, mitigate or avoid / escape from these situations of stress. To order each one of these strategies to face stress based on their frequency of use. To make an assessment on the efficacy of each one of the strategies to face stress.
    • To describe the main consequences or effects of stress.
