explain an experience of stress in your life, incorporating all of the pieces below. This experience could be work-related or not work-related. It could be something you are experiencing right now, or that you have experienced in the past. It could be minor or major. If you do not feel comfortable sharing something personal, you can make something up.

Apply one of the following three theories from the video/slides to explain your stress experience (choose one!)

1. Transactional Model,
2. Conservation of Resources Theory, or
3. Job Demands-Resources Model

Apply at least two of the following concepts in your response (clearly use this specific terminology).

1. Stressor
2. Stress
3. Strain

explain the stressor, th experience of stress, and/or any resulting or anticipated resulting strain. Don't forget to incorporate your chosen theory. Also use it in reference to (i.e., apply it) to explain an experience of stress you have chosen to write about. In terms of theory, a successful paragraph will include: a) brief description of the theory, b) explanation of the situation, and c) direct, correct application of the theory to your experience to explain why it was stressful for you. For the terminology, be as detailed and specific as possible so that I can tell you understand the theory and terminology and are able to apply it.
