One month before the move, Chandler and Alex asked friends to help them organize and pack their belongings. One week before the scheduled moving day, they learned that they needed to move out within 48 hours, so they quickly finished packing. Explain how each of the following concepts could be related to their moving process?

Social Loafing; Alarm stage of the general adaptation syndrome

Explanation:

Social loafing explains people's propensity to make less effort when they're part of a group,it is a tendency in which a person exerts less attempt to achieve an objective when operating in a team than when operating individually.

The general adaptation syndrome (GAS) is the body's predictable response to stress.The alarm reaction stage refers to the initial symptoms the body experiences when under stress. During the alarm stage, the body reacts with a burst of energy to the distress signal sent to the hypothalamus to help deal with the stressor.

Chandler and Alex asked friends to help them organize and pack their belongings. One week before the scheduled moving day, they learned that they needed to move out within 48 hours, so they quickly finished packing. The rush in there parking can be related to SOCIAL LOAFING, at first they felt lazy and reluctant to park because their friends where willing to help them, buh when they discovered they are going earlier than planned they had to rush up there packing. And they experienced the ALARM STAGE because it is rush time and their adrenaline makes them work faster.
