Abstract
Workplace stress is caused by an employee^s interaction with aspects of his job. The effects of stress are not only negative but also positive depending on a person^s perception. Merging Affective Events Theory, Transactional Stress Model, as well as Human Capital Theory provide useful ideas for different emotional reactions (both positive and negative) to challenge stressors and hindrance stressors. Cognitive processes stress will affect discretionary behavior (citizenship behavior and counterproductive behavior) with the onset of emotional reaction of attentiveness, anxiety, and anger. The role of experience will strengthen the cognitive processes. This study aims to test empirically the relationship of challenge stressors and hindrance stressors to behavioral discretionary with the participation of personalities and experience. In addition, this study aims to look at the differences in the effect of the length of the period of employment. The study population was all employees and owner of MSME^s in Magelang. This study uses a Likert scale of measurement.

Hypothesis testing is done by using Partial Least Square (PLS). The results of this study indicate that employee respondents never experience hindrance stressors, as well as having a strong cognitive process so that no potential to hindrance stressors. While owner respondents potentially have to hindrance stressors, and have strong cognitive processes so that the effect of stress more towards positive behavior, as well as having a weak anxiety reaction.
