Stress, distress, and strain You are in Ireland with a group of your friends on a hike. Suddenly, you come upon the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, a footbridge built over a 30-meter-deep chasm between two mountain tops. You are scared of heights. As your friends tell you how safe the footbridge is, you know that you must decide whether to cross the bridge or turn around to take the long route back to your hotel. Your decision is:

a. A stress response

b. A stressor

c. Distress

d. An environmental factor
