目的探讨宗教应对，种族之间的关系，和动态血压（ABP）测量在日常living.MethodsA 24小时ABP从155名男性和女性（78非洲裔美国人和77白色）在一个典型的工作日。在清醒和睡眠期间平均ABP，并评估临床BP。在ABP measurement.ResultsMultiple回归分析中，控制人口统计学变量，揭示了ABP种族相互作用的显著宗教应对（p<0.05）。01)与临床血压（p<. 05）。宗教应对与白人中的BP无关。然而，在非裔美国人中，较高水平的宗教应对与较低的清醒度相关（p<0.05）。05)睡眠（P<。01)ABP。社会支持的满意度也与较低的清醒ABP在非洲裔美国人，但它没有调解宗教应对和ABP.ConclusionsThe结果的关系，本研究扩展了以前的研究结果表明，在非洲裔美国人中，宗教应对和BP相关的日常活动，以及在诊所。较低的24小时血压负荷可能是宗教信仰和心血管健康相关的途径。
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between religious coping, ethnicity, and ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) measured during daily life.MethodsA 24-hour ABP was obtained from 155 men and women (78 African American and 77 white) on a typical workday. ABP was averaged over awake and sleep periods, and clinic BP was also assessed. Psychosocial measures of coping style, negative affect, social support, stress, and health behaviors were completed before ABP measurement.ResultsMultiple regression analyses, controlling for demographic variables, revealed a significant religious coping by ethnicity interaction for ABP (p<. 01) and clinic BP (p<. 05). Religious coping was not related to BP among whites. Among African Americans, however, higher levels of religious coping were associated with lower awake (p<. 05) and sleep (p<. 01) ABP. Social support satisfaction also was related to lower awake ABP among African Americans, but it did not mediate the relationship between religious coping and ABP.ConclusionsThe results of this study extend previous findings by showing that, among African Americans, religious coping and BP are related during daily activities as well as in the clinic. Lower 24-hour BP load may be a pathway through which religiosity and cardiovascular health are related.
