Emotion, Stress, and Health 4/16/2017 Emotions and Illness Hostility and heart disease. Type A Personality: Determined to achieve, sense of time urgency, irritable, respond to threat or challenge very quickly, and impatient with obstacles. Type B Personality: Calmer and less intense.

Depression and Disease Emotion, Stress, and Health 4/16/2017 Depression and Disease Two studies followed 1000 people for many years. Those who had been clinically depressed at the outset were 2-4X more likely to have a heart attack than nondepressed people were. Other research failed to find the link. ©2002 Prentice Hall ©2002 Prentice Hall

Emotion, Stress, and Health 4/16/2017 Emotional Inhibition Emotional Inhibition: A personality trait involving a tendency to deny feelings of anger, anxiety, or fear; in stressful situations, physiological responses such as heart rate and blood pressure rise sharply. People who display this trait are at greater risk of becoming ill than people who can acknowledge feelings. ©2002 Prentice Hall ©2002 Prentice Hall

Emotion, Stress, and Health 4/16/2017 The Sense of Control Locus of Control A general expectation about whether the results of your actions are under your own control (internal locus) or beyond your control (external locus). Feelings of control can reduce or even eliminate the relationship between stressors and health. ©2002 Prentice Hall ©2002 Prentice Hall

Emotion, Stress, and Health 4/16/2017 The Limits of Control Primary Control (Western Cultures) An effort to modify reality by changing other people, the situation, or events; a “fighting back” philosophy. Secondary Control (Eastern Cultures) An effort to accept reality by changing your own attitudes, goals, or emotions; a “learn to live with it” philosophy. ©2002 Prentice Hall ©2002 Prentice Hall
