PSYC 272 - Stress and Coping

4 credits
Stress is our response, physical or emotional, to the changing demands of our environment. The experience of stress is not uncommon, and yet, our understandings of what stress is, what causes us to feel stress, and how to cope with stress is often limited. In this course we will explore the physiological and psychological experience of stress, focus on the experience and perception of stress in college students and others, and review adaptive and maladaptive methods of coping with stress. A significant portion of in-class time will be devoted to the acquisition and practice of a variety of stress management strategies and techniques.
  Course offered annually CLA-Breadth/Social Science
