McEwan is neuroscientist and neuroendocrinologist at Rockefeller Allostatic Load = cumulative, multisystem view of physiological toll exacted on the body through attempts at adaptation (McEwan and Stellar, AIM 1988) Reactivity Steady-state activity Costs of these adjustments builds up, culminating in cumulative identifiable damage that results in increased pathology (Seeman et al, 1997; Cacioppo et al, 2000) Note- negatively framed. Is allostatic load bad? What happens to allostatic load in situations of great pleasure, say orgasm or love?
- The National Social Life, Health and Aging Project uses the interactive biopsychosocial model to hypothesize a bidirectional relationship between health and sexuality. In this framework, good health promotes sexuality and AND positive sexual activity and relationships promote good health. Ultimately, we aim to elucidate the biological and physiological mechanisms through which sexuality and health influence one another. Although we only have cross-sectional data at this point, our longitudinal hypothesis proposes that positive sexual activity and relationships promote health and mitigate illness as people age.
