Interaction model● Objective events happen to a person, but personality determines the impact of
events by influencing a person’s ability to cope
○ Personality moderates (influences) the relation between stress and illness by
having an effect on coping
● Coping response influences degree, duration and the frequency of a stressful event
Transactional model
● Personality has three potential effects
1. Can influence coping
2. Can influence how a person appraises/interprets events
3. Can influence events themselves
People don’t just respond to situations, they also create citations through
choices and actions

● Personality does not directly influence the relationship between stress and illness
● Instead, personality affects health indirectly, through health promotion or health
degrading behaviours
, Predisposition model

that is causing them both
○ Association found between illness and personality because of some
predisposition that underlies them both
● Inherited attributes
Illness behaviour model
● Personality influences the degree to which a person perceives and attends to bodily
sensations, the degree to which a person interprets and labels sensations as illness,
and illness behaviours
