Este estudo teve por objetivo discutir relações entre adversidades na infância e sintomas de depressão, ansiedade e estresse em uma amostra de adultos brasileiros, além dos fatores proximais e distais que poderiam explicar o caminho dessa relação da infância até a idade adulta. 510 participantes com idades entre 18 e 59 anos (MD=30,64; DP=10,47) responderam a uma ficha de dados sociodemográficos, à Maltreatment and Abuse Exposure Scale, à DASS-21 e à Social Readjustment Rating Scale, por coleta online e presencial. Os resultados indicaram que ter vivenciado adversidades na infância estava associado a maiores índices dos sintomas e à ideação suicida e que a violência psicológica e emocional se mostrou mais prevalente e com maior efeito em longo prazo. Percepção de rede de apoio social e psicoterapia são fatores que podem atuar de forma positiva e eventos estressores recentes podem intensificar o prejuízo sobre a saúde mental. São discutidas as implicações na identificação e intervenção sobre as adversidades na infância e no investimento nos fatores protetivos em longo prazo.

This study investigated the relationship between the sex of subject and life event experiences. A sample of 90 adult-psychiatric out-patients were administered the Social Readjustment Rating Scale. The range of scores indicating the magnitude of life crisis were used to assess exposure to stress. The results indicated that a majority (75.6%) of the subjects had experienced considerable stress in the year prior to seeking treatment. While there was no significant difference between the sexes in over-all life-event stress scores, a difference was found in the frequency with which men and women experienced seven of the life events. Males reported more involvements with the law (jail, law violations) and more vocational (work, business readjustments) related experiences, whereas, females reported more personal (injury, illness, change in family) events.

Most introductory psychology textbooks describe Holmes and Rake's Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS; 1967) instrument, which generates stress scores as life change units. Although students seem willing to entertain the possibility that stressors can affect their health, the SRRS does not include many common events that act as stressors for college students and includes many items not meaningful to most college students. This article describes an instrument intended for use in classroom demonstrations, the College Undergraduate Stress Scale (CUSS), and reports a local set of norms for a population of traditional-age college students. The CUSS is useful in teaching concepts within health psychology that are associated with stress and its cumulative effects.

Background: Adolescent is a transition phase from childhood to adulthood that marked by the change on physical, mental and psychosocial aspect. Adaptation on the change that people met in their life is called psychosocial stress. Stress makes a change on food habit and a disturbance on nutrition’s absorbance. Those circumstances affect people’s nutritional status.Objectives: To identify the correlation between psychosocial stress and nutritional status among SMP Stella Duce 1 Yogyakarta’s students.Methods: This study was an observational study which used a cross sectional design. It held by quantitative approach to identify the relationship between psychosocial stress and nutritional status. Subject of the study were 85 students of SMP Stella Duce 1 Yogyakarta. Respondent’s identities were collected by using identity questionnaire. Psychosocial stress’s status was collected by using SRRS questionnaire (social readjustment rating scale) that was modified for adolescent. Respondent’s calories intakes were assessed by using the form food recall 3 x 24 h. Anthropometrics data collected were weight and height. The adjustment of psychosocial stress’s status used SRRS questionnaires. Calories intake were measured by using nutrition software (Fp2). Student’s nutritional status was measured by using Epi 2000 software. Relationship’s analysis among variables uses statistical test of SPSS 12.00, with the correlation or linear regression test.Result: From this study, 49.4% (42 people) have normal nutritional status, 4.7 % at under nutrition level, 25.9% at risk of obesity, and 20% obesity. From the measurement of psychosocial stress’s score, there were 61.2% (52 people) in a non-tress condition, while the other was on stress at different level. Statistical test showed that there was no relationship between psychosocial stress and nutritional status (p > 0.05).Conclusion: There was no significant relationship between psychosocial stress and nutritional status among SMP Stella Duce 1 Yogyakarta’s students.

A twenty-seven item life stress questionnaire was derived from the Holmes-Rahe Social Readjustment Rating Scale, modified for older respondents, and administered to sixty-two patients hospitalized for neuro-behavioral diagnosis and treatment. The aims were to focus on significant life stresses and the patients' responses to these, and to identify those life events that were subjectively evaluated by the patients as significantly affecting their life adjustment. The study suggests that fewer than twenty items-seventeen in this investigation-may be an efficient range of events to estimate life change effects and that the degree of impact of these stresses must be sought out systematically if these phenomena are to be better understood.

7 subjects (mean age of 27 yr.) who complained of chronic pain symptoms were compared to seven age- and sex-matched controls on the following variables: number of physical symptoms, Type A tendency (Glazer Stress Control scores), and over-all stress (Social Readjustment Rating Scale scores). The pain subjects showed significantly more physical symptoms and greater Type A tendencies than controls but did not differ on over-all stress.
