理论和研究重点关注应对过程、压力生活事件以及心理和身体痛苦之间的关系。本研究旨在探讨压力生活事件与三种应对方式(情绪导向、任务导向和回避导向)之间的关系——对身心困扰。 205 名本科生(101 名男性和 104 名女性)完成了测量应对方式、近期生活压力源以及身体症状和心理症状的调查问卷。据假设,以任务为导向的应对方式会消极地预测痛苦,而以情绪为导向的应对方式会积极地预测痛苦。还研究了两种回避型应对方式(分心和社交转移)与痛苦的关系。多元回归分析显示,任务导向的应对方式与痛苦呈负相关,但仅限于男性。对于男性和女性来说,以情绪为导向的应对方式对痛苦具有显着的正向预测作用。回避型应对的两个子组成部分——分心和社交转移——与痛苦的测量有不同的相关性。生活事件压力可以积极预测痛苦,无论是作为方差的独立贡献者还是与几种应对方式的相互作用。
Theory and research have focused on the relationships among coping processes, stressful life events, and psychological and physical distress. This study was designed to examine the relationship of stressful life events and three styles of coping-emotion oriented, task oriented, and avoidance oriented-to physical and psychological distress. Questionnaires measuring coping styles, recent life stressors, and both physical symptoms and psychological symptoms were completed by 205 undergraduates (101 males and 104 females). It was hypothesized that task-oriented coping would negatively predict distress and that emotion-oriented coping would positively predict distress. The relationships of two types of avoidance-oriented coping (distraction and social diversion) to distress were also examined. Multiple regression analyses revealed that task-oriented coping was negatively related to distress, but only for males. Emotion-oriented coping was significantly positively predictive of distress for both males and females. The two subcomponents of avoidance-oriented coping-distraction and social diversion-were differentially related to measures of distress. Life event stress positively predicted distress, both as an independent contributor of variance and in interaction with several coping styles.
