What statement is true concerning stress and personal psychological makeup of managers and supervisors?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option C — Managers and supervisors are more likely to exhibit type "A" behavior, and this behavior is more likely to subject them to stress over long periods.
Type A individuals are characterized by high levels of competitiveness, urgency, and ambition, traits frequently found in management roles. This psychological profile often leads to chronic stress due to the constant pressure to achieve, high workload demands, and the tendency to perceive situations as challenging or threatening over extended periods.
