Abstract
Problems are often understood as isolated psychological, biological, or situational difficulties. Such reductionist interpretations fail to explain individual variability in problem manifestation and resolution. The present paper proposes two complementary theoretical models: (1) the Multi-Level Genetic Influence Model and (2) the Genetic–Psychological–Psychosomatic Flow Model. Together, these models conceptualize problems as multilevel, dynamic processes shaped by genetic predispositions, psychological structuring, psychosomatic expression, and subtle or parapsychological dimensions. The framework offers a holistic and integrative understanding applicable to psychology, homeopathy, psychosomatic medicine, and holistic health sciences.
Keywords: heredity, problem, genetics, psychology, psychosomatic model, integrative medicine

1. Introduction
In contemporary psychology and medical sciences, problems are frequently approached as external stressors, symptomatic disorders, or maladaptive behaviors. While such perspectives are clinically useful, they remain theoretically incomplete. Individuals exposed to similar environments often exhibit markedly different responses, suggesting the presence of deeper, intrinsic determinants.
This paper argues that problems must be understood as multilevel and process-oriented phenomena, rather than isolated events. To address this gap, two integrative models are proposed, synthesizing genetic, psychological, and psychosomatic dimensions into a unified explanatory framework.
---
2. Theoretical Background
Classical biomedical models emphasize pathology, while psychological models focus on cognition and behavior. Engel’s (1977) biopsychosocial model expanded this view, yet even this framework does not fully incorporate hereditary depth and subtle psychological dimensions recognized in holistic traditions.
Genetic research has demonstrated predisposition without determinism, while psychosomatic studies have shown the role of emotional stress in disease manifestation. However, an integrative model explaining where genetics operates and how problems unfold remains underdeveloped.

3. Model One: Multi-Level Genetic Influence Model
3.1 Conceptual Foundation
The Multi-Level Genetic Influence Model proposes that heredity functions simultaneously across multiple domains of human existence. Genetic influence is therefore multidimensional, not confined to biological structure alone.
---
3.2 Physical Level
At the physical level, genetic influence shapes:
Bodily constitution
Organ-system sensitivity
Biochemical and hormonal reactivity
Disease predisposition (diathesis)
Here, problems exist as latent potential, not inevitability.
---
3.3 Psychological Level
Genetic factors contribute to:
Temperament
Emotional reactivity
Stress tolerance
Adaptive capacity
Problems at this level manifest as emotional dysregulation or personality-based conflicts.
---
3.4 Psychosomatic Level
At the psychosomatic interface, prolonged psychological stress interacts with genetic vulnerability, leading to:
Autonomic imbalance
Endocrine dysregulation
Organ-specific symptom formation
Problems become clinically observable at this stage.
---
3.5 Subtle / Parapsychological Level
Beyond conventional biomedical domains, genetic influence may extend to:
Subconscious patterns
Transgenerational impressions
Spiritual inclinations
Heightened intuitive sensitivity
This level integrates insights from depth psychology and Eastern philosophical traditions.
---
3.6 Summary of Model One
Genetic influence operates concurrently at physical, psychological, psychosomatic, and subtle levels, making a multilevel perspective essential for understanding problems.
---
4. Model Two: Genetic–Psychological–Psychosomatic Flow Model
4.1 Conceptual Foundation
The second model explains the developmental trajectory of problems. Rather than static conditions, problems are conceptualized as evolving processes.
---
4.2 Stage One: Genetic Predisposition
This stage includes:
Neural sensitivity
Hormonal response patterns
Emotional baseline tendencies
Genetics provides probability, not determinism.
---
4.3 Stage Two: Psychological Structuring
Genetic predispositions interact with:
Family environment
Sociocultural context
Life experiences
Resulting in:
Cognitive styles
Emotional patterns
Self-concept and coping mechanisms
Problems emerge as internal psychological conflicts.
---
4.4 Stage Three: Psychosomatic Expression
Persistent psychological stress leads to:
Chronic activation of stress hormones
Organ-specific overload
Somatic symptom manifestation
---
4.5 Stage Four: Experiential Manifestation
The individual experiences the problem as:
Physical illness
Behavioral dysfunction
Social or occupational impairment
---
4.6 Summary of Model Two
Problems evolve from genetic predisposition through psychological mediation into psychosomatic expression.
---
5. Integrated Discussion
The two models are complementary:
Model One explains where genetic influence operates.
Model Two explains how problems develop over time.
Together, they offer a comprehensive, integrative understanding of human problems.
---
6. Clinical and Academic Implications
Supports individualized, person-centered therapy
Encourages root-cause analysis rather than symptom suppression
Aligns with homeopathy, psychosomatic medicine, and holistic health sciences
Provides a theoretical base for integrative education and research
---
7. Limitations and Future Directions
The present framework is theoretical and requires empirical validation. Future research may explore clinical case series, psychometric correlates, and interdisciplinary methodologies to test the proposed models.
---
8. Conclusion
Problems are not isolated events but multilevel, dynamic processes shaped by genetic predispositions, psychological structuring, and psychosomatic expression. An integrative framework is therefore essential for accurate understanding and effective intervention.
