本研究探讨了宗教和非宗教的认知行为应对的作用，在一个样本的61例慢性疼痛患者从中西部疼痛诊所。参与者描述了他们的慢性疼痛，并表示他们使用宗教和非宗教的认知行为应对策略，结果支持宗教应对，包括积极和消极的策略的多维概念化。积极的宗教应对策略与积极的影响和宗教的结果显着统计控制后的人口变量。相反，消极宗教应对策略的措施与结果变量显著相关。非宗教认知行为应对策略和结果变量之间也发现了一些显着的关联。这些结果强调了需要进一步研究宗教应对在适应慢性疼痛方面的贡献。应用心理生理学的从业者应该评估他们的慢性疼痛患者的宗教评价和宗教应对作为另一个重要的压力管理策略。
This study examined the role of religious and nonreligious cognitive-behavioral coping in a sample of 61 chronic pain patients from a midwestern pain clinic. Participants described their chronic pain and indicated their use of religious and nonreligious cognitive-behavioral coping strategies, Results supported a multidimensional conceptualization of religious coping that includes both positive and negative strategies. Positive religious coping strategies were associated significantly with positive affect and religious outcome after statistically controlling for demographic variables. In contrast, measures of negative religious coping strategies were riot associated significantly with outcome variables. Several significant associations also were found between nonreligious cognitive-behavioral coping strategies and outcome variables. The results underscore the need for further research concerning the contributions of religious coping in adjustment to chronic pain. Practitioners of applied psychophysiology should assess their chronic pain patients' religious appraisals and religious coping as another important stress management strategy.
