Risk factors emotional

In addition to biological and environmental factors that influence the onset and course of drug-related problems, there also are many individual risk factors. These variables can include those related to a person s actions or behavior, those related to the way a person thinks, or those related to the experience of emotions. The next few sections will discuss in detail these personal variables that can be related to drug problems in some people. 

The expression of emotions in inappropriate ways can cause a vicious cycle for a person. For example, expressing emotions inappropriately can cause problems with interpersonal relationships. If a person is perceived as emotionally awkward or volatile, others may go out of their way to limit contact with that person. The result maybe increased social isolation, which in turn may reinforce the belief by many clients with drug problems that they are social misfits (recall the earlier discussion about environmental risk factors). In addition, the disinhibiting effects of drugs may exacerbate emotional dysregulation, potentially making the dys-regulation that much worse. 

Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus serotype 1 (HSV-1). A person may become infected by transmission from another individual who has a cold sore, for example, by kissing. The vims passes through the skin and travels up the nerve, where it usually lies dormant until triggered. Common risk factors include emotional stresses, fatigue, colds and viruses that may weaken the body s immune system, menstruation and environmental factors such as cold weather and strong winds.

The most basic principle of risk communication strikes many people as decidedly childlike. Instead of figuring out how much danger a particular situation poses based on the data available to us, we tend to become concerned about a risk in proportion to the strength of a set of emotion-arousing factors (PDF available at www.psandman.com) like mistrust, unresponsiveness, lack of control, unfairness. 

ABSTRACT This study contributes to identification of psychosocial risk factors in non-teaching staff. The study is exploratory and descriptive. It consists in descriptive statistics of responses to a questionnaire for identification of psychosocial risk factors (translated and adapted from F-PSICO), as well as in content analysis of responses to semi-structured interviews. The results show that the non-teaching staff needs to hide emotions and feelings and also that some of the situations that affect psychologically relate to relationships with co-workers. It is stated that there is no team spirit and that these relations are not satisfactory. With the day-to-day workload, these workers are forced to interrupt work and perform various tasks at the same time, dealing with a day-by-day of ((breakneck pace , ((intense and ((very full journey. Psychological demands, time autonomy, workload, relationships and social support are psychosocial risk factors that play an important role in the performance of these workers. Finally, some measures to control these risks were recommended.

One of the most common factors contributing to low back pain, but more commonly the most overlooked risk factor, is stress, whether it is emotional stress or muscular tension, according to a 2010 University of Maryland report. Stress causes muscles to contract and when there is a significant emotional stress associated with the employee, the muscles will remain in a contracted state no matter what position the employee is in or how often an object is lifted or how heavy that object is. When muscles are chronically contracted, hlood circulation ceases at that level and oxygen is cut off to the muscle group, causing the muscle to lose some function, or perhaps die. 

Many children are placed at risk for emotional or behavioral difficulties because of familial or other environmental circumstances, such as exposure to violence or death, alcoholism, or divorce in the family, etc. Many intervention programs focus on children or adolescents with one or more identified risk factors in an attempt to prevent the appearance of specific emotional or behavioral difficulties and are considered selected in nature. Mental health professionals t3rpically deliver selected interventions.
