Stress, Coping and Development: Some Issues and Some Questions.

Rutter, Michael

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry and Allied Disciplines, v22 n4 p323-56 Oct 1981

The concept of psychosocial stress is reviewed in relation to empirical findings on the effects of different types of life events in childhood and adult life. It is concluded that the concept is too broad and that the events need to be subdivided according to their characteristics and meaning. (Author/DB)
