马德雷山脉地震（1991年6月28日，洛杉矶县）发生后4 ~ 7个月，对229名成年人的家庭概率样本进行了访谈。这项研究预测心理困扰从这些变量：人口统计学，创伤事件的历史，低震级事件的历史，地震相关的威胁的看法，和地震相关的资源损失。基于资源保护（COR）压力模型，预测资源损失将是预测心理困扰的核心。三个主要假设得到了支持。(1)资源损失与心理困扰呈正相关; 2当其他预测因素在统计学上得到控制时，资源损失可预测心理困扰; 3资源损失与心理困扰的轻度至中度升高相关。研究结果支持COR压力理论。理论和实践的影响进行了讨论。
A household probability sample of 229 adults was interviewed four to seven months after the Sierra Madre earthquake (June 28, 1991; Los Angeles County). The study predicted psychological distress from these variables: demographics, traumatic event history, low magnitude event history, earthquake related threat perceptions, and earthquake related resource loss. Based on the Conservation of Resources (COR) stress model, it was predicted that resource loss would be central in predicting psychological distress. Three major hypotheses were supported. (1) resource loss was positively associated with psychological distress; (2) resource loss predicted psychological distress when other predictors were statistically controlled; and (3) resource loss was associated with mild to moderate elevations in of psychological distress. The findings support COR stress theory. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
