Defining Stress: Stress as a stimulus:
Consists of environmental demands that lead to physical responses
Stress as a response: Dr. Hans Selye’s “General Adaptation Syndrome”
Stress as the interaction between the stimulus and the person’s appraisal of it

Stimulus Specificity: Different kinds of stress produce different
kinds of physiological response Individual Response Specificity:
Characteristic patterns of physiological response which carry over from one type of stress to another

Changes in Physiological Functioning: Feedback Loops:
negative feedback - the turning on of one component in a system leads to the turning off of another component
oscillations - rhythmic back-and-forth cycles of the various systems in the body
