  Societal stress may cause far reaching political, economic and even
geological effects. Nevertheless, it is still scarcely investigated, contrary
to social stress, which an individual faces in their interactions within a
society. It is natural to suppose that in its adaptation, society demonstrates
the same objective laws that biological population does, since they are, in
fact, the closest systems. In the survey, the hypothesis is tested that the
collective stress effect holds true in society, which must appear (as it
happens according to correlation adaptometry method in biological systems) in
escalation of both correlations between societal characteristics and their
dispersion. Both tends are observed in Ukrainian society during 2009-2012, as a
result of political elections that affect societal anxiety.
