Romanian term

anxietatea ca reacţie de adaptare

Romanian to English Medical Psychology
Face parte din prezentarea unui curs despre tulburările anxioase: "anxietatea ca reacţie de adaptare, anxietatea ca sindrom, limita între normal şi patologic".

Pare simplu... dar aş vrea să sune firesc în engleză şi nu reuşesc: "anxiety as adaptative reaction"?

Mulţumesc anticipat.

Mulţumesc, Peter, acum am observat că am scris din greşeală "adaptative" în loc de "adaptive" :(

anxiety as an adaptive response

Cred că "response" merge mai bine decât "reaction".

"What is anxiety?

Anxiety is a universal and generally **adaptive response** to a threat, but in certain circumstances it can become maladaptive..."

"Fear and **Anxiety as an Adaptive Response**

...Fear and anxiety can be an **adaptive response** when one is confronted with an event that threatens their survival. Humans experience a kind of fight or flight response... Yet, there is evidence that suggests that moderate levels of anxiety may serve as an adaptive function."
