Abstract
The giving up complex in the context of the conservation-withdrawal pattern presents a biologically and developmentally sound conceptual basis for the understanding of the relationships of the negative affect states with cardiovascular disorders. This enables the integration of the concept of vital exhaustion, which has become the most promising operationalized instrument in psychosocial cardiovascular research.
