Chapter 8 – Reflective Questions

These questions are designed to prompt deeper thinking about the ideas and themes presented in this chapter.

  1. How does the way that you think about stress affect how you deal with it?
  2. What types of stressors do people from different cultural, ethnic, sexual or gender minority groups experience?
  3. How might long-term exposure to microaggressions or chronic stressors impact on unhealthy coping behaviours and physical health over time?
