dc.description.abstractFrom 24 various Schools of Palakkad, Ottapalam, Trissur and Cochin Districts in Kerala, 432 School Teachers were screened using Case Study Schedule (2009), Occupational Stress Index (Srivastava and Singh, 1981) and Novaco Anger Inventory - Short Form (Novaco, 1994), out of which 200 School Teachers with High Stress / High Anger were selected as the sample. Hundred School Teachers were randomly assigned to Experimental Group and hundred to Control Group. The psychological intervention called, Positive Therapy (Hemalatha, 2004) was given to all the School Teachers in the Experimental Group thrice a week, on alternate days, for two weeks. The duration of each session was one hour. Initially, the entire School Teachers had 'High' Stress. But after the administration of Positive Therapy, for 2 weeks, the stress level was reduced to 'Moderate' level. There was a significant decline in the mean stress from 'High' to 'Moderate' level, proving the efficacy of Positive Therapy in the management of stress. The anger level got reduced due to the effect of Positive Therapy among the Experimental Group School Teachers and it further helped the School Teachers to overcome their problems and to face it boldly and successfully.en_US
