![Page 4: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
A Transactional Definition of Stress
Stress is a particular relationship or transaction between a person and the environment that is appraised by the person as taxing or exceeding his/her resources and/or endangering his/her well being, (Lazarus and Folkman)

Three Types of Appraisals
• Primary– What is the nature of the stressor?
• Secondary– What kinds of resources do I posses to cope
with this stressor?
• Reappraisal– Reassessment of situational given additional
information and/or secondary appraisal

• C – Emotional Consequences • Emotional reaction, presumably caused by
irrational thinking
• B – Beliefs • Usually irrational if dealing with negative emotions
![Page 28: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Ellis’ Core Irrational Belief
• It is awful, terrible, and catastrophic when things are not the way that I demand that they be.
![Page 29: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Other Common Irrational Thoughts
• It’s a dire necessity for an adult to be loved by everyone for everything he or she does.
• One should be thoroughly competent, successful, and achieving in all possible respects.
• Certain people are wicked and villainous when they do not behave as I demand they should, and for this, they should be punished.
• If something is threatening, I should be terribly upset about it.
• Musts and Shoulds
![Page 30: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Possible Stress Reducing Thoughts
• I may not like this situation, but I can certainly stand it.
• Unfortunately, people don’t always behave the way I want them to. That’s the way it goes - no use getting upset.
• I don’t have to be perfect. I can make mistakes too. I don’t have to please everybody.
• Life is too short to let things like this make me miserable.
![Page 31: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Analyzing Thoughts and Feelings
(see Smith pages 68-69)• Activating Event
– What happened? Describe the event.
• Emotional Consequences– How did you feel when the event occurred?– What was your emotional response?
• Beliefs– What were you thinking? What were you telling
yourself? Was any of this irrational?
• Dispute– Counter what you told yourself. What is a more
productive thing to think?
![Page 32: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Self-Instructional Training: Anticipatory Stage
• This will be frustrating. Just plan on how you can keep your cool and deal with it without blowing up.
• No negative self-statements. Just think and plan rationally
![Page 33: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Self-Instructional Training: Impact Stage
• One step at a time. You can handle this. Just relax and think clearly.
• Keep your cool. No need to loose your tempter. Relax.
![Page 34: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Self-Instructional Training: Post-Impact Stage
• Those damn ideas. They’re the problem. When you control them, you control your anger.
• Go back over what you did. What worked and what can be done better next time?
• Way to go! It’s getting better every time. You’re controlling the anger instead of it controlling you.
![Page 35: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Attention Control Principles
• Attention has dimensions
• Effective attention involves shifting it
• Arousal influences attention and performance
![Page 46: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Choking Defined
• Because of excessive arousal, an individual’s performance progressively deteriorates and the the person can’t regain control of it– High arousal– Attention shifts towards the person’s dominant
attentional style– Attention goes internal and narrow (towards
negative thoughts and feelings)
![Page 48: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)

What is Sleep?
“Sleep is a period of sensory isolation.”
-William Dement
• Sensory input from the environment is blocked
• When you are asleep, you won’t notice a bright light flashing even if your eyes are taped open
![Page 59: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT)
• Give people the opportunity to sleep every 2 hours (i.e., 9:30, 11:30, 1:30, 3:30 & 5:30)
• Have 20 minutes to fall asleep
• As soon as you fall asleep, or at 20 minute mark, the test ends
![Page 62: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Multiple Sleep Latency Test
• Well rested people: 15-20 minutes
• Sleep deprived: 10 minutes
• Serious sleep deprivation: 5 minutes or less (associated with big sleep debt and/or sleep disorders)
• Correlates very strongly with subjective feelings of tiredness and fatigue
![Page 63: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

Sleep Debt
• Defined: All lost sleep less than the daily average amount you need
• If you need an average of 10 hours per night, and you sleep 7 hours, you just added 3 hours to your sleep debt

Baseline: 9 hours sleep/night; Study: 5 hours sleep /night
![Page 66: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Sleep Debt
• Sleep debt is only reduced (or paid back) by getting EXTRA sleep (sleeping MORE than the daily average amount you need)
• If you’re tired today, it’s more likely a function of your sleep debt than how much sleep you got last night
![Page 67: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Circadian Rhythms
• Defined: Rhythms that repeat about every 24 hours (often slightly more than 24 hours)
• Processes following circadian rhythms:– Melatonin levels– Body temperature– Tooth enamel – Alertness
![Page 68: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Circadian Rhythms
• Important rhythm for our discussion: “clock-dependent alerting”
• Experience a push of wakefulness two times a day:– In the morning when you wake (e.g. 8 AM)– Again around 12 hours later (e.g. 8 PM)
• Second push is stronger because you’ve acquired a day’s worth of sleep debt

Pseudo-Listening Intentions
• To listen in order to buy time to think of what to say
• To listen for specific pieces of information, ignoring the rest
• To listen because we think we “should” (half-listening)
![Page 80: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Kinds of Expression
• Observations (Facts)
• Thoughts (Conclusions drawn from the facts)
• Feelings (Emotions)
• Needs (What would help or please you?)
![Page 81: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Value Judgments
• Comparative appraisals that are based on standards or norms
• They include judgments about goodness/badness, positive/negative, etc…
• Often related to moral or ethical considerations
• Example: “It is wrong(or appropriate) to assist homeless individuals.”
![Page 82: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Theories
• A set of statements that specifies how different factors are related to one another
• Usually created to explain the causes of something
• Example: “Pam gets very nervous when she drives her car at night. She must have poor night vision.”
![Page 83: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Beliefs
• Statements at a cognitive level that are representative of psychological facts
• The statements are perceived as facts themselves, but there is insufficient foundation to form irrefutable knowledge or truth
• Example: “Openness is essential to a good marriage.”
![Page 84: Unit 6: Stress & Anger Management](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062309/56815202550346895dc046ae/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Opinions
• Conclusions that are based primarily on personal bias or intuition, rather than substantive facts.
• Some overlap with value judgments
• Example: “Faculty meetings are a waste of time.”
