目的：调查支持的交易压力和应对模式的儿童先天性心脏病的母亲，在占产妇adjustment.Methods的方差：参与者是52名母亲的儿童招募从一所大学的医疗中心。测量包括疾病变量、认知过程（即，结果：母亲的心理调整与高水平的日常压力和姑息性应对技术相关，与心脏缺陷的严重程度无显著相关性。总之，该模型的变量约占38%的方差在孕产妇adjustment.Conclusions：研究结果是在雅阁与以前的研究中，其他慢性病患者的人群中提出的压力，应对和孕产妇调整之间的关联。在本研究的限制范围内，对数据进行了解释，以支持理论模型在确定慢性病群体中需要干预的领域方面的实用性。
Objective: Investigate support for the transactional stress and coping model for mothers of children with congenital heart defects, in accounting for the variance in maternal adjustment.Methods: Participants were 52 mothers of children recruited from a university medical center. Measures included illness variables, cognitive processes (i.e., appraisals of stress, expectations, methods of coping, family functioning, and maternal psychological adjustment).Results: Maternal adjustment was associated with high levels of daily stress and palliative coping techniques and was not significantly associated with severity of the cardiac defect. Together, the variables of the model accounted for approximately 38% of the variance in maternal adjustment.Conclusions: The findings are in accord with previous research among other chronically ill populations in suggesting an association between stress, coping, and maternal adjustment. Within the limitations of the study, the data were interpreted to support the utility of theoretical models in identifying areas in need of intervention across chronic illness groups.
