ANS: A, B, C
Stressors are subjective based on patient perception and assessment of stressors as part of a patient history. Stressors trigger coping behaviors that can include negative uses of drugs and alcohol and appetite changes that affect weight. Age, height, and temperature are not typically altered with coping, although pulse, respiratory rate, and blood pressure may be affected.
