Stress
• A negative emotional state in response to events that we perceive as taxing our resources or our ability to cope
• Stressors—events that are perceived as harmful, threatening, or challenging

Biopsychosocial Model of Health
• Biopsychosocial model—the belief that physical health and illness are determined by the complex interaction of biological, psychological, and social factors
• Health psychology—the study of how psychological factors influence health, illness, and health-related behaviors

Change is stressful—e.g., death, marriage, divorce, loss of job, vacations, retirement
Life Changes

Annoying events in everyday life— We all have “bad hair” days; these minor things can add up to lots of stress
Daily Hassles
![Page 6: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Unpredictable, large-scale events can be extremely stressful and change our lives; can lead to PTSD
Catastrophes

Conflict
Pull between two opposing desires or goals• Approach-approach conflict
– choice between 2 appealing outcomes– easy to resolve, low stress
• Avoidance-avoidance conflict– choice between 2 unappealing outcomes– more stressful than approach-approach
• Approach-avoidance conflict– one goal with appealing & unappealing aspects– most stressful type of conflict– often see vacillation

Social and Cultural Sources of Stress
• Social conditions that promote stress– poverty, racism, crime– low SES tend to have highest levels of
stress
• Culture clashes lead to stress– company owned by different culture– refugees, immigrants suffer– acculturative stress
![Page 9: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Health Effects of Stress
• Indirect effects—promote behaviors that jeopardize physical well being such as use of drugs, lack of sleep, poor concentration
• Direct effects—promote changes in body functions, leading to illness such as headaches and other physical symptoms

Endocrine Responses to Stress
• Fight or flight preparation of body• Stress hormones—produced by
adrenal glands– Adrenal medulla—catecholamines
• Epinephrine and norepinephrine• Increases respiration, BP, heart rate
– Adrenal cortex—corticosteroids• Release stored energy• Reduces inflammation and immune
system responses
![Page 11: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

General Adaptation Syndrome
• Hans Selye• Three stage process
– Alarm—intense arousal, mobilization of physical resources (catecholamines)
– Resistive—body actively resists stressors (corticosteroids)
– Exhaustion—more intense arousal but this leads to physical exhaustion and physical disorders

Stress and the Immune System
• Psychoneuroimmunology—studies interaction between nervous system, endocrine system, and immune system
• Stress leads to suppressed immune function
• Chronic stress tends to have more influence
• Stress-weakened immune system increases likelihood of illness
![Page 15: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Your immune system battles bacteria, viruses, and other foreign invaders that try to set up housekeeping in your body. The specialized white blood cells that fight infection are manufactured in the bone marrow and are stored in the thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes until needed.

Response to Stress
• Psychological Factors– Perception of control– Explanatory style– Chronic negative emotions– Hostility
• Social Factors– Outside resources– Friends and family– Positive relationships
![Page 18: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Perceived Control
• Sense of control decreases stress, anxiety, & depression
• Perceptions of control must be realistic to be adaptive
![Page 19: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Explanatory style
• Optimism – use external, unstable, & specific
explanations for negative events– predicts better health outcomes
• Pessimism– use internal, stable, & global explanations
for negative events– predicts worse health outcomes
![Page 20: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Stress, Personality, and Heart Disease
• Coronary heart disease is North America’s leading cause of death
• Habitually grouchy people tend to have poorer health outcomes
• Chronic negative emotions have negative effect on immune system
![Page 21: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Type A vs. type B Personality
• Type A– time urgency– intense ambition and competitiveness – general hostility– associated with heart disease
• Type B– more easygoing– not associated with heart disease
![Page 22: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Research on type A Personality
• Time urgency & competitiveness not associated with poor health outcomes
• Negative emotions, anger, aggressive reactivity
• High levels of hostility increase chance of all disease (e.g., cancer)
![Page 23: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Social Factors Promoting Health
Social support—resources provided by others in times of need
• Emotional—expressions of concern, empathy, positive regard
• Tangible—direct assistance such as lending money, providing meals
• Informational—such as making good suggestions, advice, good referrals
![Page 24: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Social Support
• Improves ability to cope with stress & benefits health– person modifies appraisal of stressor’s
significance to be less threatening– helps to decrease intensity of physical
reactions to stress– make person less likely to experience
negative emotions
• Pets as social support– especially for elderly and people who live
alone
• Gender and social support
![Page 25: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Coping
• Behavioral and cognitive responses used to deal with stressors
• Involves efforts to change circumstances or our interpretation of them to make them more favorable and less threatening
![Page 26: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Coping
• Problem-focused coping– managing or changing the stressor– use if problem seems alterable– confrontive coping– planful problem solving
• Emotion-focused coping– try to feel better about situation– use if problem out of our control
![Page 27: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Emotion-focused Coping Strategies
• Escape-avoidance—try to escape stressor
• Distancing—minimize impact of stressor
• Denial—refuse to acknowledge problem exists
![Page 28: Chapter 12 Lecture Disco 4e](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062513/554b7877b4c90564168b55f6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Emotion-Focused Coping Strategies
• Wishful thinking—imagining stressor is magically gone
• Seeking social support—turn to friends, support people
• Positive reappraisal—minimize negative, emphasize positive
• Downward comparison—compare self to those less fortunate
