COMPLETE Intro Psychology Course - ALL TOPICS - Stress, Social Support, & The Faith Factor (Intro Psych Tutorial #219)

www.psychexamreview.com In this video I describe how social support can help people to manage stress. This may come in the form of tangible support, informational support, or emotional support, though not all social interactions are beneficial for managing stress. I also describe how groups can provide social capital, though they also run the risk of becoming overly isolated or hostile to outsiders. Social support likely plays a role in the faith factor, which refers to individuals with higher levels of religiosity or spirituality having better health outcomes and living longer.
