对364名被诊断为I期、II期和III期乳腺癌的女性(93%的高加索人，6%的非裔美国人，1%的西班牙裔)进行了生活质量效益发现的相关性和后果的研究。在确诊后4个月(T1)、T1后3个月(T2)、T2后6个月(T3)分别测量受益发现和生活质量。社会经济地位较低的妇女、少数民族和疾病较严重的妇女在基线上感受到的好处更多。受益发现与基线时更多的负面影响相关，也与疾病阶段相互作用，因此，随着时间的推移，与生活质量的负面关系仅限于患有更严重疾病的人。研究结果表明，“从坏中发现好的东西”是好是坏，这是有限定词的。
The correlates and consequences of benefit finding on quality of life were examined for 364 women (93% Caucasian, 6% African American, and 1% Hispanic) diagnosed with Stage I, II, and III breast cancer. Benefit finding and quality of life were measured 4 months postdiagnosis (T1), 3 months after T1 (T2), and 6 months after T2 (T3). Women with lower socioeconomic status, minorities, and those with more severe disease perceived more benefits at baseline. Benefit finding was associated with more negative affect at baseline and also interacted with stage of disease, such that negative relations to quality of life across time were limited to those with more severe disease. Findings suggest there are qualifiers as to whether "finding something good in the bad" is good or bad.
