Overview of Social Theory, Stress, and Mental Health in Relation to Society

This review covers key concepts in social theory as they relate to mental health, stress processes, and the impact of social factors such as gender and ethnicity. It examines influential theories from prominent sociologists including Durkheim and Turner, as well as essential studies on income, mental illness, and the role of marriage. Emphasis is placed on the treatment of mental health conditions, disparities among different social classes, and the significance of informal social support. The content is structured to aid understanding for assessments, with a focus on non-cumulative readings.
