100名不孕妇女和73名女性对照组在两次(第1次和第2次)完成了三项心理健康指标(抑郁、自尊和自信),这与不孕妇女尝试试管婴儿失败的开始和结束时间一致。在时间2,IVF女性还被要求说明他们是否使用了许多不同的应对措施,以处理他们失败的IVF尝试。正如预测的那样,在治疗周期之前,试管婴儿女性比对照组更抑郁,自尊心更低,在治疗周期之前和之后,她们都不那么自信。在失败的试管婴儿手术后,试管婴儿妇女比治疗周期前更加抑郁,自尊水平更低。就应对对IVF妇女尝试后幸福感的影响而言,使用以问题为中心的应对与高水平的幸福感相关,而使用回避应对和寻求社会支持与低水平的幸福感相关。
One hundred infertile women and 73 female controls completed three measures of psychological well-being (depression, self-esteem and self-confidence) on two occasions (Times 1 and 2), coinciding with the beginning and end of a failed IVF attempt by the infertile women. At Time 2, the IVF women were also asked to indicate whether they had used a number of different coping reponses, in relation to dealing with their failed IVF attempt. As predicted, IVF women were more depressed and had lower self-esteem than controls prior to the treatment cycle, and both before and after the treatment cycle they were less self-confident. After the failed IVF procedure, IVF women were more depressed and had lower levels of self-esteem than they did prior to the treatment cycle. In terms of the effects of coping on the post-attempt well-being of the IVF women, the use of problem-focused coping was associated with high levels of well-being, while the use of avoidance coping and seeking social support was associated with low levels of well-being.
