对 166 名大学生的压力来源（学业、经济、家庭、社交和日常麻烦）和应对策略（自助、接近、迁就、回避和自我惩罚）进行了调查。还调查了性别、特定压力来源和应对策略之间的关系。学生根据 5 因素修订版 COPE 模型完成了压力评估清单和压力应对清单（Zuckerman 和 Gagne Journal of Research in Personality, 37:169-204, 2003）。结果发现，与大学男性相比，女性大学的总体压力水平更高，并且更多地采用以情绪为中心的应对策略。大学生男女还报告了针对不同压力源的不同应对策略；然而，对于男性和女性来说，以情绪为中心的应对策略的使用优于解决问题的策略。这些结果对于设计以大学生现有的适应性情绪为中心的策略为基础的减压研讨会具有重要意义。
The sources of stress (academics, financial, family, social, and daily hassles) and coping strategies (self-help, approach, accommodation, avoidance, and self-punishment) of 166 college students were examined. The relationship between sex, specific sources of stress, and coping strategies was also investigated. Students completed a stress assessment inventory and a stress coping inventory based on a 5-factor revised COPE model (Zuckerman and Gagne Journal of Research in Personality, 37:169-204, 2003). Results found that college women reported a higher overall level of stress and greater use of emotion-focused coping strategies than college men. College men and women also reported different coping strategies for different stressors; however the use of emotion-focused coping strategies dominated over problem-solving strategies for both men and women. These results have implications for designing stress reduction workshops that build on the existing adaptive emotion-focused strategies of college students.
