The idea that 75% of people check their papers in advance to avoid stress, based on the 78 responses of the survey, is an interesting observation, but it doesn't reveal the full feedback loop of the behavior.
Late verification of documents isn't necessarily the cause of anxiety, but rather a symptom of a broader stress management system or pre-existing constraints.
For example, if a person is already under financial pressure, administrative procrastination can be an avoidance strategy, not the primary source of their travel anxiety.
Understanding these structural dynamics would help us identify real leverage points to reduce stress, beyond just checking documents.
