PSYC 0204 - Stress, Coping, & Well-Being

Credits: 3

The goal of this course is to give an in-depth understanding of the theoretical and empirical work on stress (e.g., negative life events, psychological and physiological stress), coping, and overall well-being. The determinants of stress and its manifestations⁠-physiological, behavioral, and cognitive⁠-will also be examined in relation to health, together with a focus on reducing stress reactions, building resilience and positive stress mindsets, as well as procedures for stress management, including relaxation techniques, meditation, biofeedback, and cognitive-behavioral strategies.

Prerequisites: PSYC 0101.
