Abstract

Male passengers regularly commuting to Stockholm by train were interviewed, before and after the introduction of petrol rating in 1974. One group travelled the whole length of the route, the other travelled halfway. Subjective experience was gauged by self ratings, and physiological stress was measured by catecholamine concentration in urine. Results showed that discomfort increased as the train approached Stockholm and the number of passengers rose.
