Such stress may be triggered by physiological or social needs. This may be manifested in terms of behavior, mental and unexplained ailments.

The stressors predominantly include competition for limited resources in sports, struggle for leadership, fear of losing leadership positions, differences in opinions, inadequate incentives, and the like.
