The stress experiences and their impact upon the daily lives and mental well-being of English Premier League professional (soccer) football coaches were explored using an in-depth qualitative design. Eight participants were interviewed using a semi-structured approach with thematic and causal network analysis revealing that (a) a range of contextually dependent demands were experienced and interpreted in relation to their situational properties; (b) many demands were appraised and emotionally responded to in a negative manner; (c) a range of coping strategies were adopted to cope with stress experiences, with many reported as ineffective; and (d) stress experiences often led to negative implications for their daily lives and eudaimonic and hedonic well-being. Positive adaptations to some demands experienced were reported and augmented perceptions of mental well-being. The findings of this study make a novel and significant contribution to understanding the interrelationships between the principal components of the stress process and the prospective links between stress and mental well-being.

使用深入的定性设计，探索了压力经历及其对英超职业（足球）足球教练的日常生活和心理健康的影响。使用半结构化方法，通过主题和因果网络分析对八名参与者进行了访谈，结果表明：（a）体验并根据其情境属性解释了一系列上下文相关的需求；（b）对许多要求进行了评估，并以消极的方式在情感上做出了回应；（c）采取了一系列应对策略来应对压力经历，其中许多被认为是无效的；（d）压力经历常常对他们的日常生活以及过分快乐和享乐的生活造成负面影响。据报告，人们对所遇到的某些需求进行了积极的适应，并增强了人们对心理健康的认识。这项研究的发现为理解压力过程的主要组成部分与压力与心理健康之间的预期联系之间的相互关系做出了新的重大贡献。
