Main Component

Eustress concept was less used by researches at the end of XX century and really has disappeared from glossaries of books of Psychosomatics, Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine. Fortunately, some authors have renewed last years this concept adding other nuances and original peculiarities beneficial for physical and mental health. This paper exemplifies, among these contributions, the strong relation of eustress with immunogenic traits (as self efficiency) and Flow concept, and some humoral markers of eustress (serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins, interferon gamma etc.). Own author’s opinion suggests a strong link between eustress and psychological well being, and underlines the role of eustress as a main component of the new Fava‘s psychotherapy, Well Being Therapy.

And Behavior

Behavioral medicine focuses on assessment, treatment, and prevention of medical problems and promotion of health, using the behavioral sciences (e.g., International Society of Behavioral Medicine). Behavioral medicine is strongly rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) both historically and in its use of CBT theories and techniques. The articles from the present special issue present the relation between cognition and behavior in both basic research and intervention studies. These articles extend the role of CBT into medical and public health settings, thereby expanding the ability of CBT therapists to help patients with medical problems and those who are at high risk for developing medical problems.
