Disease may be defined as the failure of a person’s adaptive mechanisms to counteract stimuli
and stresses adequately, resultinḡ in functional or structural disturbances. This definition is an
ecoloḡical concept of disease, which uses multiple factors to determine the cause of disease,
rather than describinḡ a sinḡle cause. Disease and illness are not synonymous.

developmental context.
