Abstract:
682 rugby referees from Wales, Scotland, and England rated their stress associated with refereeing on a 3-item scale. Mean ratings for the total sample and each group were between "very little" and "a moderate amount." Results support earlier studies, suggesting that most sport officials do not experience much stress while officiating.
