Action Plan: What is the title of your study?
Answer:
The Stressful Environments and our bodys Responses around them
Explanation:
Our bodies, families, communities and lives are embedded in a complex network of systems. The degree of support in the environment can shape a person's resilience. Likewise, an environment that is stressful can foster disease. The conditions of a person's social and psychological environment—those in which they are born, grow, live, work and age—are known as the social determinants of health. These conditions are shaped by the distribution of money, power and resources at global, national and local levels.
Risks for Stress: Riskscapes
A riskscape, or landscape of risks, captures the overlapping threats to health occurring in a physical location that increase risk for disease.
An example of overlapping risks can be seen in impoverished neighborhoods, which often experience many of the stressors listed above simultaneously. We discuss poverty in more detail on our Socioeconomic Environment page.
Minority status, age and gender further interact to increase risk for disease.6 Individuals experience additional adversity when they live amid wealth and affluence but do not share those resources.
To better understand how the psychosocial environment impacts health outcomes, one must understand how these conditions interact with the human stress response. The stress response within the psychosocial environment can trigger disease.
The rise of chronic disease is a complex and growing problem for public health in the Philippines. Stress, particularly exposure to long-term chronic stress, is associated with the majority of chronic health conditions.
