为即将死亡的配偶或伴侣提供护理，然后失去那个人是人类经历中最紧张的。一项对艾滋病患者的配偶进行的纵向研究表明，除了强烈的消极心理状态外，这些人在整个死亡和丧亲期间也经历了积极的心理状态。在持久且压力巨大的环境中，积极和消极的心理状态同时出现，对于我们理解应对过程具有重要意义。应对理论传统上侧重于对痛苦的管理。本文描述了在强烈痛苦的背景下与积极心理状态相关的应对过程，并讨论了积极心理状态在应对过程中的理论意义。(C)1997年爱思唯尔科学有限公司
Providing care to a spouse or partner who is dying and then losing that person are among the most stressful of human experiences. A longitudinal study of the caregiving partners of men with AIDS showed that in addition to intense negative psychological states, these men also experienced positive psychological states throughout caregiving and bereavement. The co-occurrence of positive and negative psychological states in the midst of enduring and profoundly stressful circumstances has important implications for our understanding of the coping process. Coping theory has traditionally focused on the management of distress. This article describes coping processes that are associated with positive psychological states in the context of intense distress and discusses the theoretical implications of positive psychological states in the coping process.
