Phases of stress onset

Social and behavioral domain

Individual psychological domain

Physiology domain

Live organism response level

Immune response level

1

Situational uncertainty

regarding social risk factors

Primary shock response to the damaging effects

Fast adaptation preparation of the system and resource mobilization

Immediate phase

nonspecific (congenital) protection mechanisms

2

Sampling of possibilities

Within different aspects of social situation

Alarm stage

general undirected activity

Transient adaptation

transient period: from fast to long-term adaptation mechanisms

Early phase

switching to different specific response mechanisms

3

Forming the intentions

choosing adequate vector of activities

Resistance stage

mobilization of the energy and structural resources of live organism

Long-term adaptation

activation of structural homeostatic mechanisms, active functioning under new conditions

Late phase

Switching of the antibody synthesis from IgM to IgG

4

Reduction of social activity

Exhaustion state (distress)

apathy, tiredness, depression-lake states etc.

Exhaustion of the protective and adaptation capacity

maximal loading of the dominating systems in process of adaptation

Completeness of the immune response

Immunological memory formation
