Daily Hassles—annoying events in everyday life
We all have “bad hair” days; these minor things can add up to lots of stress
![Page 6: Chapter 12 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Catastrophes—unpredictable, large-scale events can be extremely stressful and change our lives; can lead to PTSD
![Page 7: Chapter 12 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
ConflictPull 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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Health Effects of Stress
• Indirect effects—promote behaviors that jeopardize physical well being. 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• Reduce inflammation and immune system
responses

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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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.

Immune Suppression Can Be Learned
• Ader & Cohen’s rat study
![Page 17: Chapter 12 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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 Ppp](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061222/54c0ff094a79592d438b4568/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

Coping
Behavioral and cognitive responses used to deal with stressors; involve efforts to
change circumstances, or our interpretation of them to make them more favorable and
less threatening.

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
