Detailed explanation-1: -The Transactional Model of Stress and Coping, proposed by Lazarus and Folkman (1984), contended that a person’s capacity to cope and adjust to challenges and problems is a consequence of transactions (or interactions) that occur between a person and their environment.
Detailed explanation-2: -For example, one person might regard spilling coffee as a minor inconvenience, and just mop up and carry on. Another might get upset and let it ruin her whole day. Lazarus and Folkman believe that the way we interpret or react to an event can often have a more powerful impact on our stress level than the event itself.
Detailed explanation-3: -The model emphasizes the person–environment transaction and suggests that a stress response is highly influenced by individual appraisal processes. Once confronted with stressors, the individual evaluates the relevance of the stressors (primary appraisal) and its own resources to overcome stress (secondary appraisal).
Detailed explanation-4: -The Transactional Model of Stress and Coping [20] suggests that work stress levels are dependent upon internal cognitive processes and the way in which employees cognitively appraise work related challenges.
