对在年龄、心脏危险状态、病史、症状表现和其他变量方面相似的男性和女性心肌梗死患者(N=157)的症状归因进行了对比。女性比男性更不可能将院前症状归因于心脏原因。在听力症状归因或来自支持者的建议的背景下,女性报告收到心脏归因或寻求医疗护理建议的可能性低于男性。这一结果对受害者性别如何影响对心脏症状的一般解释具有一定的意义。
Symptom attributions were contrasted between male and female myocardial infarction victims (N= 157) who were comparable on age, cardiac risk status, medical history, symptom presentation, and other variables. Women were less likely than men to attribute their prehospital symptoms to cardiac causes. In the context of hearing symptom attributions or advice from support persons, women were less likely than men to report receiving a cardiac attribution or advice to seek medical attention. Results have implications for how victim gender influences the lay interpretation of cardiac symptoms.
