Abstract

The Nottingham Stress-Arousal Checklist (SACL) was used to compare stress and arousal levels within a group of 36 Scottish general practitioners (GPs) before and after an out-of-hours primary care centre opened in 1995. Overall, GPs reported significantly lower stress and higher arousal scores with the new service.
