Stress and physical health

Otkako je svijeta i vijeka stres je vrlo čest pojam u svim pojavnostima ljudskog života, a medijski prostor pune odrasli koji su pod utjecajem stresa učinili neke nesmotrene stvari. Zbog toga nam se, možda, može učiniti da su samo odrasli pod utjecajem stresa, ali on se afirmira i kod djece mlađe školske dobi i to kroz strah od nekoga/nečega. Začetnik istraživanja stresa je Hans Selye koji ga je definirao kao reakciju organizma na različite stresore. Njegovim stopama je nastavljajuDohrenwend i Dohrenwendte govore da je stres određen prirodom stresora, a tek se 40-ih godina 20. stoljeća uvodi pojam psihičkog stresa. Uveo ga je Richard Lazarus i time postao tvorcem jedne od najpoznatijih teorija stresa današnjice. Ova je tema odabrana baš iz razloga što je pojam stresa poznat već stoljećima i što je prisutan u svim područjima ljudskog života, ali kao takav nije jednoznačno definiran. Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je pobliže se upoznati s pojmom stresa te njegovom utjecaju na tjelesno zdravlje. Također,istražiti čega se djeca boje i što kod njih izaziva stres te ih poučiti kako da osvijeste taj strah koji izaziva stres i kako ga zatim umanjiti. Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 14 ispitanika trećeg razreda jedne područne škole te su dobiveni rezultati u kojima je vidljivo da su djeca mlađe školske dobi pod stresom zbog škole.Since the beginning of time stress is well common term in all manifestations of human life. Media's are filled with adults who did some reckless things because they were affected by stress. For that reason, it may seem that only adults are under the influence of stress, but even children in primary school have fear of someone / something. The originator of stress research is Hans Selye who defined the stress as a reaction of the organism to various stressors. Dohrenwend and Dohrenwend, who continued his footsteps, say that stress is determined by stressors, and only in the 40s of the 20th century the concept of psychological stress is introduced. It was introduced by Richard Lazarus who in that waybecame the creator of one of the most popular stress theories of today. This theme was chosen for the reason that the concept of stress is known for centuries and is present in all areas of human life, but it is not clearly defined. The aim of my diploma thesis was to get to know the concept of stress and its impact on physical health. Also, to explore what the pupils are afraid of, what causes the stress in their lives and to teach them how to become aware of the fear which causes stress and how to reduce induced stress. The study was conducted on a sample of 14 respondents in one 3rd grade regional school, and the results show that children under school age are stressed because of fear of school
