2 PYC1502 Psychology in Society
Semester 1: Assignment 01 - 2018 (Unique number: 876895)
Question 1
Stress affects people in different ways and may lead to burnout. Which of the following is associated
with burnout?
1) Burnout may develop when people are subjected to too much stress over a long period of
time
2) Burnt-out people tend to feel emotionally drained and alienated from others
3) Feelings of inadequacy and having achieved nothing are common with burnout
4) All of the above
Answer: The correct answer is 4
Refer: Tutorial Letter 201/1/2018
Reasoning: To answer this question correctly you need to understand the negative effects of
stress. Option 1 is correct because burnout occurs when people are exposed to too
much stress for a long period of time. Another effect of burnout is that people
become emotionally drained, leading to the feelings of alienation from others
(option 2). Moreover, burnt-out people tend to feel inadequate and having
achieved nothing worthwhile in life (option 3). Since all the options are associated
with burnout, option 4 is the correct answer to the question. What other effects do
you think are associated with burnout?
Question 2
There are physiological changes that take place when people experience stress. The . . . increases the
degree of physical tension of the body, whereas the . . . decreases it.
1) sympathetic nervous system; parasympathetic nervous system
2) primary appraisal; secondary appraisal
3) parasympathetic stimulation; sympathetic stimulation
4) psychosomatic stimulation; psycho-physiological stimulation
Answer: The correct answer is 1
Refer: Tutorial Letter 201/1/2018
Reasoning: This question is based on the functions of the sympathetic and parasympathetic
nervous system. Option 1 provides the correct answer as it explains the functions of
the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. In simple terms, the
sympathetic nervous system activates the body for “fight or flight” in response to a
threatening stimulus, whereas the parasympathetic nervous system helps the body
to restore normal functioning. Option 3 is incorrect because it inversely attributes
the functions of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Option 2 is
also incorrect because primary and secondary appraisals are part of the contextual
model of stress, and are not involved in the process of increasing and decreasing
physiological tension. Option 4 is also incorrect because psycho-physiological
stimulation refers to the physical and emotional tension experienced by an
individual. Can you think of other physiological changes that are controlled by the
sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system?
Question 3
There are different models that explain the process of stress. To what does the General Adaptation
Syndrome (GAS) of stress refer?
1) The appraisal of our ability to cope in a stressful situation
