Stepfamily Stress Index (SSI)

What is the Stepamily Stress Index (SSI)?

The SSI* is a 140 item multiple-choice inventory that:

  • identifies the major stress sources in your stepfamily,
  • reveals how you personally experience and express these stressors, and
  • assesses the resources available to reduce the stressors identified.

The SSI instantly provides a printable report that:

  • explains each of the areas assessed,
  • shows how your results compare to others living in a stepfamily setting, and
  • offers a range of suggestions for addressing each of the areas of concern.

  • Selecting either of the above options indicates you agree with the terms detailed in our End User Agreement.

*The SSI is based upon over 20 years of clinical work and research completed by the Stepfamily Foundation of Alberta [www.stepfamily.ca] involving hundreds of stepfamilies.
