There are two Print Version Forms used in most programs; they are:
SMQ Participant Form + Stressmaster Guide (34pp)
SMQ Companion Form (Assessment only)
The SMQ-Participant Form is taken for self-help purposes or used by trainers in a Stress Management or Stressmastery Program. The Companion Form is used to give a "second" opinion as to how well the participant is viewed as mastering stress from a close friend or partner.
