Do learning strategies mediate the relationship between personality and stress?

We have all felt stress at work at some point in our lives. It has been estimated that over 105 million working days are lost each year because of work-related stress, and OPP’s own research found that over 70% of UK workers find their work stressful. However, whilst low-level stress affects most people, this doesn’t have to lead to distress for any one individual. Using the right coping strategies can cut the link between stress and distress; manageable amounts of pressure can then have a positive impact and enhance motivation and increase engagement.
