Stress, Coping, and Development: An Integrative Perspective

by Carolyn M. Aldwin, Emmy E. Werner
Stress, Coping, and Development: An Integrative Perspective
Stress, Coping, and Development: An Integrative Perspective

Coping strategies across life stages and cultures.

If you're intrigued by the psychology behind stress and coping mechanisms, this book is like a map through the human experience. Carolyn M. Aldwin takes you on a deep dive into why we react the way we do to stress, considering everything from our genetic makeup to the cultures we're part of. It's a comprehensive guide that not only illuminates individual coping strategies but also provides a scholarly lens through which we can understand our responses to life's challenges, potentially improving our adaptation and health.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

How do people cope with stressful experiences? What makes a coping strategy effective for a particular individual? This volume comprehensively examines the nature of psychosocial stress and the implications of different coping strategies for adaptation and health across the lifespan. Carolyn M. Aldwin synthesizes a vast body of knowledge within a conceptual framework that emphasizes the transactions between mind and body and between persons and environments. She analyzes different kinds of stressors and their psychological and physiological effects, both negative and positive. Ways in which coping is influenced by personality, relationships, situational factors, and culture are explored. The book also provides a methodological primer for stress and coping research, critically reviewing available measures and data analysis techniques.
