Malaysian women rank 16th most stressed in the world, according to a recent study on the stress levels which women worldwide are subjected to.
Indian women rank as the world’s most stressed (87 per cent), says the study, prepared by the information and media company, Nielsen.
They are closely followed by Mexican women (74 per cent) and Russian women (69 per cent).
In the developed countries, the stress level is the highest for women in Spain (66 per cent), France (65 per cent) and Italy (64 per cent). Malaysian women (44 per cent) rank 16th in the list while women in Thailand (45 per cent) share the 15th spot with South Korea (45 per cent). Japanese women (52 per cent) rank 12th while mainland Chinese women (51 per cent) rank 13th.
The study, which researched social behavioural patterns of women in 21 developing and emerging economies, revealed that women all over the world felt stressed out, with those in the so-called emerging countries facing greater stress than their counterparts in the developed countries.
According to India’s Economic Times, the greater stress levels of women in the newly industrialised countries could be attributed to the fact that in recent years, for example, in India, the corporate sector and the jobs had developed at an extremely fast pace.
