        This research aimed to examine the effectiveness of Progressive Relaxation Training in evaluating the stress of daily life events. 100 female students of consulting were randomly selected from Azad University and Personal Views Survey (PVS; Hardiness Institute,1985), Self-esteem Inventory (Coopersmith, 1967), and Cattell Anxiety Scale (Cattell,1958) were administered. After random assignment of participants to a control and an experimental group, the experimental group received 10 weekly sessions of progressive relaxation training (Jackobson, 1934). Next, the Hassles and Uplifts Scale (Delongis et al, 1982) was administered to both groups. Data showed that by controlling the levels of self-esteem, hardiness and tension, the experimental group, after receiving the relaxation training, appraised the daily life events as less stressful than the control group that did not receive the training.      Manuscript profile
