| 抄録 | The Problem. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a stress management intervention program based in Eastern philosophy in the amelioration of stress among Taiwanese managers. The stress management intervention program assessed was Zen Buddhist-based.
Procedures. A pre-test/post-test research design characterized the study. Stress perceptions of the members of two sample groups (a control group and an experimental group that participated in a Zen-based stress management intervention program) were measured at the inception of the intervention program, and again at the completion of the program. Differences in stress perception levels between the two measurements were determined, and quantitative procedures were applied to determine the significance of the differences between the sample groups. A second post-test was performed 60 days subsequent to the completion of the program to determine if changes induced by the intervention program dissipated.
Findings. The results of the research indicated that a Zen-based stress management program can lead to significant decreases in perceived levels of job-related stress, but that such positive effects likely will develop over some extended period of time as opposed to producing immediate results. The results also indicated that specific demographic and organizational variables (subject gender, subject education, subject marital status, organizational job level, firm size, and subject religious preference) act as intervening variables in relation to the level of benefit that likely will be derived from participation in a Zen-based stress management intervention program.
Conclusions. A stress management program based in Eastern philosophy can be an effective intervention in organizations based in Eastern societies. Specifically, a Zen-based stress management intervention may be expected to be effective within a society with a large Buddhist population segment.
Recommendations. Organizations in both the private and public sectors located in Taiwan should be encouraged to implement stress management intervention programs for employees. Organizations implementing such interventions, but to measure program outcomes over the long-term.
