Influencing the Mind Through the Body: A Theoretical Model for Coping With Student Teacher Stress Through Physical Exercise.

This article is a theoretical synthesis of two distinct concepts: student teacher stress and physical exercise. This article begins by reviewing the literature surrounding these two ideas and leads to a theoretical framework that integrates the concepts embedded in Loehr's theories on stress and physical exercise, as well as Folkman and Lazarus' model of cognitive appraisal. The article proposes an explanation of how physical exercise interacts with cognitive appraisal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
