一个科学家站在他的同事和前辈的肩膀上，科学才能攀登知识的大山。当一个科学家帮助另一个科学家时，一个理论就能在一个有证据支持的坚实的平台上找到一个暂时的落脚点。科学家、理论和证据之间的联系越多，上升就越确定。这就是我赞赏安娜·m·塔康（Anna M. Tacon）在依恋理论与应对模式和疾病结果研究之间建立联系方面所做的努力的原因之一。我在这篇评论中的意图是建立在她有趣的概念整合的基础上，通过详细阐述C型和那些与发展有关的理论和研究之间的联系，强调生物学上的联系，通过这种联系，早期生活中发展起来的应对模式和/或基于遗传易感性的应对模式可以影响晚年疾病的发展和进展。首先，需要注意的是，我对C型应对模式的研究只关注这种模式如何影响恶性黑色素瘤和艾滋病毒/艾滋病的进展，而不是疾病的发展。几乎所有的生物心理社会肿瘤学研究人员都研究了癌症的进展/结果，而不是发展/发病率，因为要对大量儿童或年轻人进行检测，然后等上20到30年才能随访并确定谁患上了癌症，这是非常困难的。然而，收集与应对模式的发展根源相关的数据的困难并不会反驳这些应对模式是在童年时期形成的逻辑和临床证据。事实上，成年后通过社会心理干预来改变这些模式的困难，强调了它们在童年学习经历中的深刻根源，并表明了它们在生物学上的根深蒂固。
Science advances up the mountain of knowledge by one scientist standing on the shoulders of colleagues and predecessors, and when one scientist gives another a leg up, a theory can find a temporary resting place on a sound ledge, which is undergirded by evidence. The more connections between scientists, theories, and evidence, the more sure the ascent. This is one reason I applaud the efforts by Anna M. Tacon in drawing connections between attachment theories and research on coping patterns and disease outcomes. My intention in this commentary is to build on her interesting conceptual integration by elaborating upon the connections between theories and research on type C and those concerned with development, emphasizing the biological connections by which coping patterns developed in early life and/or based on genetic predisposition can affect the development and progression of disease in later life. At the outset, it is important to note that my research on the type C coping pattern has focused exclusively on how this pattern may influence the progression rather than the development of disease in malignant melanoma and HIV/AIDS. Nearly all biopsychosocial oncology researchers have studied cancer progression/outcome rather than development/incidence because of the immense difficulty of testing large numbers of children or young adults and then waiting 20 to 30 years to follow up and determine who has developed cancer. The difficulty of collecting data relevant to the developmental roots of coping patterns does not, however, refute the logic and clinical evidence that these coping patterns were forged in childhood. Indeed, the difficulty in changing these patterns through psychosocial interventions in adulthood underscores their deep roots in childhood learning experiences and suggests their biological entrenchment.
