The emerging consensus among contemporary researchers is that stress is
a. a stimulus event that presents difficult demands.
b. the response of physiological arousal elicited by a troublesome event.
c. a special stimulus-response transaction in which one feels threatened or experiences loss or harm.
d. a series of events that tend to elicit overwhelming feelings of anxiety

C. A special stimulus-response transaction in which one feels threatened or experience loss or harm.

Explanation:

Psychologically, stress is defined as a feeling of anxiety and pressures that cause psychological ache. The emerging consensus illustrates that humans experience stress as they perceive things as threatening or unable to cope with the circumstances and feel a sense of loss or harm. Contemporary researchers have found that it is a special stimulus-response that could be due to external or internal reasons causing fear of losing things as the perception of danger evokes an automatic response from people. Thus, option C correctly illustrates the stress as a stimulus-response.
