Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Primary Appraisal According to Lazarus, a stimulus might be determined to be positive, neutral or irrelevant, or dangerous. A potentially dangerous stimulus is one that presents a challenge, risk, harm, or loss. Consider losing one’s job as an example of a potentially stressful event.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lazarus and Folkman (1984) unpacked the concept of interpretation further in their model of stress appraisal, which includes primary, secondary, and reappraisal components (see Figure 16.5, “The Transactional Theory of Stress and Coping”). Primary appraisal involves determining whether the stressor poses a threat.
