The first section examines the two aspects of stress, psychosocial and biological, and their interactions, covering the effect of stress on the developing brain, the neuroendocrine substrate of stress reactions psychosomatic reactions and psychological symptom formation. The second section examines specific stressors encountered at each developmental stage, age-typical methods of responding to stress and special stress pitfalls.
