这项研究探讨了一般生活压力之间的关系。 220 名黑人男性样本中与种族主义相关的压力和心理健康状况。参与者填写了个人数据表,即感知压力量表(S. Cohen、T. Kamarck 和 R. Mermelstein,1983 年)、种族主义事件时间表的修改版本(H. Landrine 和 E. A. Klonoff,1996 年)。和心理健康量表(C. T. Veit & J. E. Ware. 1983)。层次回归的结果表明,当一般压力得到控制时,与种族主义相关的压力预测工人阶级男性的心理困扰会增加 4% 的变异,而中上层阶级男性的心理困扰会增加 7% 的变异。与种族主义相关的压力还预示着中上层阶级男性的心理健康状况会出现额外 5% 的差异;然而,它并不能预测工人阶级男性的心理健康状况。讨论了对咨询实践和未来研究的影响。
This study explored the relationship among general life stress. racism-related stress, and psychological health in a sample of 220 Black men. Participants completed a personal data form, the Perceived Stress Scale (S. Cohen, T. Kamarck, & R. Mermelstein, 1983), a modified version of the Schedule of Racist Events (H. Landrine & E. A. Klonoff, 1996). and the Mental Health Inventory (C. T. Veit & J. E. Ware. 1983). Results of hierarchical regressions indicated that when general stress was controlled, racisin-related stress predicted an additional 4% of variance in psychological distress for working class men and an additional 7% for middle-upper class men. Racism-related stress also predicted an additional 5% of variance in psychological well-being for middle-upper class men; however, it was not predictive of psychological well-being for working class men. Implications for counseling practice and future research are discussed.
