Reply to comment by Unique-Public-8594 in Massachusetts is 3rd most stressed state in the US, study says by Omphaloskeptique

I wonder what the criterias are. We have a ton of students and early adult professionals here and they are expectedly to be stressed.

Criteria: based on google search terms like “stress” “deppression”, etc

Seeing how we have so many health professionals and schools this hardly seems like a proper measuring standard.

It hardly seems like a proper measuring standard no matter the context. Just googling a term doesn't mean someone suffers from that term.

But you can’t extrapolate the argument from the given data that somehow these people are more/less stressed than people who don’t search these terms.
