The APA reveals the results of its annual survey investigating the stress levels of Americans, what causes their stress, and how they cope with it. Common stressors for 2024 include:

  • U.S. politics
  • health care
  • violence and crime
  • the environment
  • global tension/conflict
  • gun laws and regulations.

The report also focuses on how the strained political climate and election is impacting stress. (Post-election survey results were released in December 2024.)
