Implications of learned helplessness in social problems and physical health
Implications of learned helplessness in social problems and physical health

Summary/Abstract: We present the implications of learned helplessness at social level and mainly in the case of institutions. We indicate that learned helplessness is accompanied by three components, namely passivity, uncontrollability and cognitions. We consider that there is a relation between helplessness and neurophysiological mechanisms, consequently the relation between learned helplessness and psychoneuroimmunology should be taken into consideration.
