Stress in Adolescence: Effects on Development.

Adolescents frequently have to cope with various stressors that could be potential threats to their healthy development and well-being. Most important mental health consequences of stress in adolescence, such as depression, anxiety, suicide, substance use, and antisocial behavior are reviewed. Physiological mechanisms through which stress exerts its effects on health, as well as some physical health outcomes, such as somatic symptoms, immune changes, and illnesses (cancer, type 1 diabetes, and dermatological conditions) are described. Furthermore, the effects of cognitive appraisal, coping, and social support as mediating and moderating factors between stress and various health outcomes also are explained.
