The alarm stage of the general adaptation syndrome (GAS) model is called the "alarm reaction." It is the initial response to a stressor, where the body recognizes a threat and activates the fight-or-flight response. This stage triggers the release of stress hormones, such as adrenaline and cortisol, leading to physiological changes like increased heart rate and heightened alertness. This reaction prepares the body to confront or escape the stressor.
