		Adjustment disorders are very common and can affect anyone, regardless of gender, age, race, or lifestyle.
		By definition, an adjustment disorder is short-lived, unless a person is faced with a chronic recurring crisis (such as a child who is repeatedly abused).
		In order to be diagnosed as a true adjustment disorder, the level of distress must be more severe than what would normally be expected in response to the stressor, or the symptoms must significantly interfere with a person's social, job, or school functioning.

	Adjustment Disorder - Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
		An adjustment disorder is defined as an emotional or behavioral reaction to an identifiable stressful event or change in a person’s life that is considered maladaptive or unhealthy.
		Adjustment disorders occur at all ages; however, it is believed that characteristics of the disorder are different in children and adolescents than they are in adults.
		In all adjustment disorders, the reaction to the stressor seems to be more extreme than a normal reaction, or the reaction significantly interferes with social or occupational (educational) functioning.

	Normal Adjustment and the Adjustment Disorders: (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Adjustment to cancer is not a unitary, single event, but rather a series of ongoing coping responses to the multiple tasks associated with living with cancer.
		Normal or successful adjustment is indicated in patients who are able to minimize disruptions to life roles, regulate emotional distress, and remain actively involved in aspects of life that continue to hold meaning and importance.
		The normal adjustment to this crisis is characterized by initial shock, disbelief, and denial followed by a period of significant distress (e.g., depressed mood, difficulty concentrating, frequent intrusive thoughts of death).

	Transracial Adoptees Psychological Adjustment
		Through the use of survey questionnaires, the study accessed the racial and cultural identity and psychological adjustment of 51 adult transracial adoptees (ages 19-36 years old) who were the biological offspring of at least one non-White individual and who were adopted by two White parents.
		"Perhaps the psychological adjustment of transracial adoptees may be influenced more by their parental and family relationships, peer relationships, achievement, or a host of other factors than by the racial and often cultural differences that exist in transracially adopting families," says study author Amanda L Baden, Ph.D., of St. John's University.
		While concluding that identifying with their birth culture is not necessary for adjustment, "I don't want to give the message that transracial adoptees do not find any strength or solace from learning about their birth culture," said Dr. Baden.

	KONI Shock Absorbers are the performance shocks to choose.
		The adjustment is made with the shock fully extended.
		Fully collapse the shock absorber, at the same time turning the dust cap or piston rod slowly to the left (counterclockwise), until it is felt that the cams of the adjustment nut engage in the recesses of the foot valve assembly.
		Therefore check whether the shock absorber is in the adjustment position or not by keeping it collapsed and gently turning it further to the left counting at the same time the half turns until a stop is felt.

		If the calibration process adopted by the supplier allows for adjustment during the testing procedure (often the case), incorrect conclusions are drawn regarding the "on-receipt" calibration status and the specification conformity of the newly calibrated product.
		For example, a mid-test adjustment might mean that subsequent checks are incorrectly reported to fail specification.
		Alternatively, the adjustment may improve performance of subsequent testpoints which should have been reported to fail specification.
