The diathesis-stress model proposes that psychological disorders result from an interaction between a predisposed vulnerability (diathesis) and environmental stressors. Individuals with a genetic or biological predisposition may develop a disorder when exposed to significant stress. The model emphasizes the dynamic interplay between inherent vulnerability and external factors in the onset of mental health conditions, offering a nuanced understanding of the complex nature of psychopathology.
