ANT 100 Module 3 Discussion Stress and the “Type A” Personality
Discussion Topic
In 1950, Dr. Meyer Friedman, a cardiologist, noted that
the armrests in his waiting room were worn down, especially on the front edges
as if the patients were literally “sitting on the edge of their seats.” From
this observation, Dr. Friedman and his colleague gathered data and concluded
that patients with heart disease tend to be intensively driven, workaholic-type
individuals. They labeled people with these characteristics “Type A”
personalities. Individuals that were more laid back and relaxed were labeled as
“Type B.”
Take the following personality test to determine if you
lean toward a Type A or Type B personality. Discuss and compare your results
with your classmates. Do you think there is a strong link between having either
of these personality types, stress, and heart disease? Why or why not?

ANT 100 Module 3 Case
Assignment Overview
Recall the video from your Module 1 Case Assignment on
how stress affects the brain. Stress not only affects the structure and
function of the brain, but its genetic makeup as well. In this module you were
introduced to the various effects stress has on each body system, including the
reproductive system. New research suggests that experiencing intense
psychological trauma may have a genetic impact on a person’s future children.
In the following video, Dr. Rachel Yehuda studied the genetic effects in a
population of Holocaust survivors and found variations from the norm in both
generations for the gene associated with depression and anxiety disorders. The
findings imply that children of individuals who experience profound stress in
life may be more likely to develop stress or anxiety disorders themselves.

Case Assignment
Answer the following questions in essay format. For
additional details, see the Case Assignment directions below.
- How does experiencing trauma affect a person’s life?
- Describe the term epigenetics. How does stress play a role in
epigenetics?
- Describe an event in history that could have caused stress-related
changes to the next generation (some examples include the Holocaust, 9-11
terrorist attack, the Dutch famine of 1944). Include the disorders these
children experienced (such as anxiety, depression, mental disorders, etc).
- Why might it be helpful to know how children will be affected by
trauma their parents experienced?
- What kinds of events going on in the world right now
could be producing similar effects in future generations?
ANT 100 Module 3 SLP Assignment
There are numerous disorders that have been linked to
stress, including depression, anxiety, heart attacks, stroke, hypertension, and
immune system disturbances. In addition, stress can have direct effects on the
gastrointestinal system by aggravating existing conditions like ulcers,
irritable bowel syndrome, and ulcerative colitis. Nervous system disorders can
be affected by stress, like insomnia and Parkinson’s disease. In fact, it’s
hard to think of any disease in which stress cannot play an aggravating role.
As you might recall from your Module 1 SLP Assignment, there are four major
categories of stress symptoms: cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and physical.
In this Module’s assignment, you will build on this knowledge by exploring
disorders that are associated with these categories.
SLP Assignment
For this SLP assignment, you will choose one disorder
from the four major categories of stress (cognitive, physical, behavioral, or
emotional) as shown in the table below. Your assignment will be to develop a
PowerPoint presentation that includes the following:

2 – Introduction
Topics to be covered in outline form
Slides
3-5
Choose one disorder from the table above. Briefly describe your chosen
disorder. What are the symptoms of your chosen disorder? How does stress
affect/cause/manifest/enhance this condition? How many people are affected by
the disorder? Describe how your chosen disorder is associated with its main
category of stress from the table (i.e., how is insomnia sometimes a cognitive
condition?).
Slide
6
Describe how your chosen disorder overlaps with the other categories of stress
listed from the table (i.e., obesity may be influenced by behavioral styles
such as overeating in reaction to stress, but there may be emotional components
as well).
Slides
7-8
Choose and describe one occupation at high risk for stress (firefighter,
policeman, trauma nurse, service member, air traffic controller, etc). What are
the main causes for your chosen occupation’s stress? How does this stress
affect their ability to perform? (Be sure to incorporate aspects of physical,
emotional, cognitive, and/or behavioral functions). Include an image
representing your chosen occupation.
Slide
9 – Conclusion
Summarize your project findings.
