System
What are the parts of the system?
- Input
- Output
- Control
- Feedback Processes
The condition of the life processes described on the three levels as integrated, compensatory and compromised
Adaptation Level
A constantly changing point, made up of focal, contextual and residual stimuli, which represent the persons own standard of the range of stimuli to which one can respond with ordinary adaptive responses
Adaptation Level
What are the Types of Stimuli?
Focal Stimulus
Contextual Stimuli
Residual Stimuli
The internal or external stimulus most immediately confronting the human system.
Focal Stimulus
Are all other stimuli present in the situation that contribute to the effect of the focal stimulus
Contextual Stimuli
Environmental factors within or without the human systems with effects in the current situation that are unclear.
Residual Stimuli
Environmental factors that present to the person from within or without but which are not the center of the persons attention or energy.
Contextual Stimuli
Innate or acquired ways of interacting with the changing environment
Coping Processes
Genetically determined or common to the species and are generally viewed as automatic processes; humans do not have to think about them
Innate Coping Mechanisms
Develop through strategies such as learning. The experience encounters throughout life contribute to customary responses to particular stimuli
Acquired Coping Mechanisms
