PSS Estimator – Accurate Cost Calculation Tool

This tool helps you accurately estimate your Peak Seasonal Sales based on various input factors.

How to Use the PSS (Perceived Stress Scale) Estimator

This PSS Estimator allows you to input your perceived stress levels based on 10 specific items. Each item should be rated on a scale from 0 to 4, with 0 meaning “never” and 4 meaning “very often”. Please fill out all fields to get the most accurate result.

How It Calculates the Results

The PSS Estimator calculates your stress level by combining both positive and negative responses. Positive responses (Items 4, 6, 8, and 9) and negative responses (Items 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 10) determine your final score. The formula used is:

Final Score = (Sum of Negative Responses - Sum of Positive Responses) + 20

Limitations

This PSS Estimator gives you an overall perception of your stress level but does not provide a clinical diagnosis. For professional advice and diagnosis, please consult a medical professional.
