  5. Coping with a Stressor • Richard Lazaus perceived stress to be the result of a determination that a demand exceeds resources available to meet that demand. • Coping- engaging in behavior or thought to respond to demand. (Task oriented/ emotion-focused) • Primary appraisal- judging how much of a threat is involved, and how important is the outcome. • Secondary appraisal- whether you have the resources needed to meet the demand. • Reappraisal- Evaluation of whether the response made to a demand/threat was effective.

  6. Setting up Roadblocks • Intervention is used to block a stressful consequence • These blocks are set up at various points on the stress theory model • Cognitive restructuring or medications (prescribed or illegal) can be used as roadblocks • INCOMPLETE ROADBLOCK: Can only filter out a portion at each level of the stress model, therefore not all of the “bad” will be filtered out. • COMPLETE ROADBLOCK:Comprehensive stress management includes intervention at ALL phases of the stress model.
