Adjustment disorder is a mental disorder. It is an unusually severe reaction to a stressful life event (other than the loss of a loved one).

Adjustment disorder occurs in both sexes and can happen at any age. People with this disorder are at risk for suicide and substance abuse. They may develop a more serious mental disorder such as major depression or post-traumatic stress disorder.

Coping motives involve drinking to avoid the experience of negative emotions such as depression or anxiety. This is the most potential mediator that lies between social anxiety and alcohol use. Several studies have found a significant positive relationship between these variables and a strong association with alcohol-related problems for high and moderate level of social anxiety (Ham et al., 2007; Martens et al., 2008; Clerkin & Barnett, 2012). Students, especially first year undergraduates, were among the most vulnerable group who often experience unpleasant feelings with their seniors and surroundings and able to drink more frequently to get rid of feeling depressed and stress (Lewis et al., 2008). In other word, it could refer to as drinking to cope with fear or stress, avoidance, or

According to the test my most prominent coping styles are planning and active coping because they were both the highest scores I got on the coping test. The ways I use to cope are healthy and effective ways to manage stressors because I don’t use them in negative ways. Planning can be positive or negative because you could make a plan of action with negative or positive consequences. Active coping can exhaust you if you concentrate too much effort into handling the stress, but has positive consequences if you take it slow by going one step at a time. My score of mental disengagement was fairly high, but not the highest I scored on within this coping test.

Health care costs are out of control in the United States and an effective way to reduce them has not been empirically identified. Since 1985, the behavioral health community has been researching the effects of optimism on healthy behaviors and overall health. The theory being tested is optimistic people follow healthier behaviors and ultimately are healthier. Dozens of articles have shown this to be true; however, many researchers believe there is a third-variable causing optimism and more positive health outcomes. The most commonly identified possible third-variable is coping strategies associated with high stress tolerance.

For my research paper, I have decided to explore the human behavior of aggression. Webster defines aggression as a forceful action or procedure especially when intended to dominate or master. This paper will cover aggression in children, adults, causes and effects of aggression, aggression in relationships and violence. Aggression comes in many different forms and should all be treated and recognized before developing into something bigger.

This essay discusses how aggression can be minimised with reference to three theories of aggression. These theories are discussed in the main body of the essay with regard to the context of reducing aggression, followed by a discussion of findings and ideas for future research.

Stress and coping theory refers to that a stressful event put a family into crisis, the family’s perception of the event and the family’s available resources can lead families to adjust to a better or worse outcome. The family stressor can be either positive or negative (Price, Price& Mckenry, 2010). Family conflict is a stressful event to a family. Every family role can potentially be a victim of violence, such as partner, elderly or a child (Gelles, 2010). There are many factors included in the stressful event, violence. Children are more likely to suffer violence from mothers, wives are having higher chances to be abused by husbands and boys have higher rates to violent siblings. Moreover, low-income households are under higher risk of experience domestic violence, minorities are also considered as having higher rates of violence, hard times in lives, including being a single parent, are also associated with more violence, socially isolated is also contributes to the problem, adults who have been abused as children are more likely to implement violence on others (Galles, 2010). There are some coping resources, such as programs, are existed for victims to get over the hard time. For instance, in Zimbabwe, 16 days session has been held to help people raise the awareness of violence (Leeder, 2004). Other programs are also available resources for family coping process. Actions taken on removing children from an abusive family, and help women found a shelter or safe place

While working in this case study, I use different types of observation techniques in order to gather information needed to evaluate Silvanus’s challenging behavior in my case study. The first observation method I am using now is anecdotal notes, and I usually write down his challenging behaviors with detailed records of what I observed him. A running record is the second techniques that I frequently used to identify Silvanus’s behaviors. Based on my ongoing observations, I noticed Silvanus has lot of challenging behaviors. For instance, he uses his shoulders to push his peers, and he usually grasps his classmate’s toys while they are still using those toys. He also runs around the classroom even his teachers encourage him to use walking feet when he is inside of the classroom. He dumps toys on the floor, but he does not clean them up. When the teachers ask him to clean his mess, he usually says “wao, wao.” Then, he pushes the teachers and run away. In addition, he does not participate or sit still at the circle time, so he walks around the classroom. He stands far away from the circle time, and looks at the teachers and his peers. He has sensory disorder, so he doesn’t let the teachers to change his diapers or clothes. Therefore, he usually throws his body one the carpet whenever he is upset. Furthermore, he does not follow the classroom’s routine. He rarely waits for his turns to get in a line to wash hands.

In this paper I will apply the stress and coping model to my transition from middle school to high school. Next, I will examine how the situation could have been improved through an increase in protective factors or activation of different resources. Finally, I will reflect on how writing this paper altered, or did not alter, my views on this event.

(Hamar, Coberley, Pope, & Rula, 2013). Some individuals will respond and be able to find ways that are healthy avenues to deal with any life stressor simple by listening to a counselor who is able to talk about coping skills.

Coping-stress-tolerance patterns indicate how someone will allow their personal life to be influenced by occurring events and what they will take away from the experience (Edleman et al., 2014, p.141). The actions made while experiencing a stressful situation will identify the individual based on their actions and how much control they obtain over difficult situations that they experience. The patterns will be used on a variety of different situations that will involve only the person experiencing the stressful situation while other stressful situations will involve multiple people (Edleman et al., 2014, p.579). Although some individuals may think they can get through a stressful situation alone while others want support from many while
