危机和关键的生活转型激活了两种截然不同但相辅相成的应对模式，(A)根据个人喜好改变发展环境(同化倾向)和(B)调整个人喜好以适应情景限制(适应倾向)。同化和适应倾向由两个独立的量表(任性目标追求和灵活目标调整)组成的问卷测量。这两个量表都预测高生活满意度和低抑郁，并与广义内部控制信念呈正相关。量表与年龄呈现出相反的关系：对890名34-63岁的SS样本的横断面分析显示，从同化型应对方式逐渐转变为适应性应对方式。对抑郁症和成功衰老理论的意义进行了讨论。
Crises and critical life transitions activate 2 distinct but complementary modes of coping,(a) transforming developmental circumstances in accordance with personal preferences (assimilative tendency) and (b) adjusting personal preferences to situational constraints (accommodative tendency). Assimilative and accommodative tendencies were measured by a questionnaire comprising 2 independent scales (Tenacious Goal Pursuit and Flexible Goal Adjustment). Both scales predict high life satisfaction and low depression and are positively related to generalized internal control beliefs. The scales evinced an opposite relation to age: Cross-sectional analyses on a sample of 890 Ss in the age range from 34 to 63 years revealed a gradual shift from an assimilative to an accommodative mode of coping. Implications for theories of depression and successful aging are discussed.
