Riassunto

Lo stress è un aspetto quotidiano della vita di tutti gli individui ed è associato a eventi negativi che possono inficiare la salute fisica e mentale. È spesso definito come una minaccia o un pericolo, sia esso reale o implicito, all’omeostasi dell’organismo. In questo senso, la risposta di stress viene spesso definita come l’insieme delle attivazioni fisiologiche e comportamentali messe in atto da un organismo per fronteggiare le sollecitazioni (stressor) che tendono a turbarne l’equilibrio omeostatico.
