Adjustment disorders, Psychology Information
Online:"Adjustment disorders are extremely common. A psychological adjustment disorder is characterized by the
development of emotional and/or behavioral symptoms (such as, depression, anxiety, school behavior problems,
fighting, work problems, academic problems, social conflicts or withdrawal, or physical complaints), in response
to a specific stressor or stressors within your environment.
To put it simply, if you are experiencing significant stress, and because of that stress you develop psychological
symptoms that are greater than what might be expected, given the stress, and this causes impairment in some major
life functioning, then you have an adjustment disorder. Major life functioning would include school adjustment,
work adjustment, social adjustment, legal difficulties, family adjustment or physical health." Category: Adjust ment Disorder, Symptoms, Symptomatology Database ****************************************************
Adjustment Disorder, Causes, Psychology
Today Magazine:"The cause is a life stressor. Adults usually develop adjustment disorders to stressors related
to marital discord, finances, or work. In adolescents, common stressors include school problems, family or
parents' marital problems, or sexuality issues. Other types of stressors include death of a loved one, life
changes, unexpected catastrophes, medical conditions such as cancer and subsequent treatments.
There is no way to predict which people are likely to develop adjustment disorder, given the same stressor.
Factors that influence how well a person reacts to stress may include economic conditions, availability of social
supports, and occupational and recreational opportunities. Intrapersonal susceptibility to stress may include such
factors as social skills, intelligence, genetics, and coping strategies." Category: Adjust ment Disorder, Symptoms, Symptomatology Database ****************************************************
