Lazarus Interactional Model

The transactional model of stress and coping created by Richard Lazarus and Susan Folkman describes stress as a two-way process involving the interaction between a person and their environment. The model involves three key steps: 1) primary appraisal where a stressor is evaluated, 2) secondary appraisal where a person assesses their coping abilities, and 3) use of coping strategies either problem-based or emotion-based. The model emphasizes that stress is determined by subjective perception and coping involves constant cognitive appraisal and reappraisal of person-environment relationships.

Introduction
Transaction or interaction occurs between individuals or even
between an individual and an external factor. According to Lazarus
and Folkman, our stress levels are frequently more influenced by
how we perceive or respond to events than by the events
themselves. Using coping mechanisms and objective assessment,
they created a framework to assist people in managing stressful
situations. This model of stress and coping was dubbed the
Transactional Model.
About Richard
an American psychologist who began
rising to prominence in the 1960s. A
Review of General Psychology survey,
published in 2002, ranked Lazarus as
the 80th most cited psychologist of the
20th century. He was well renowned for s

his theory of cognitive-mediational Rich
theory within emotions.
The Authors
The TSC (Folkman, 2008; Lazarus, 2006;
Lazarus & Folkman, 1984) proposes that two

prototypical states, challenge and threat, S
arise from cognitive judgments of the
meaning of a situation and one's ability to
respond to the situation. This discusses
insights into how individuals perceive and
respond to stressors.
