Document Summary

Transactional conception of stress is a pattern of cognitive appraisals, physiological responses, and behavioural tendencies that occurs in response to a perceived imbalance between situational demands and the resources needed to cope with them. Microstressors the daily hassles and everyday annoyances we encounter at school, on the job, and in our family relations. Major negative events victim of a crime, death in family, illness. Events which occur suddenly and unpredictably, and which affect a person over a long period of time seem to take the greatest toll on people. Life event scales to study linkages between life events and wellbeing and to quantify the amount of life stress that a person has experience over a given period of time. Autonomic and somatic feedback can affect our reappraisals of how stressful a situation is and whether our resources are sufficient to cope with it. Gas, general adaptation syndrome selye, described a physiological response pattern to strong and prolonged stressors.
