创伤事件后适应性和适应不良应对策略的识别一直是许多科学研究的主题。本研究旨在通过元分析,以评估使用的方法和回避策略(包括问题为重点和情绪/认知为重点)创伤和心理困扰之间的关系。39项关于应对两种类型创伤事件(人际暴力和严重伤害)的研究被保留在荟萃分析中。回避应对和痛苦之间存在一致的关联,总体r = 0.37,但应对方法和痛苦之间没有关联,总体r =-0.03,但存在一些重要的调节因子。未来的研究应对和创伤恢复的结果的影响进行了讨论。
The identification of adaptive and maladaptive coping strategies following traumatic events has been the subject of much scientific inquiry. The current study sought through meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between the use of approach and avoidance strategies (both problem focused and emotion/cognitive focused) following trauma and psychological distress. Thirty-nine studies of coping following two types of traumatic events (interpersonal violence and severe injury) were retained in the meta-analysis. There was a consistent association between avoidance coping and distress, overall r = .37 but no association between approach coping and distress, overall r = -.03, but some important moderators existed. Implications of the results for future research regarding coping and trauma recovery are discussed.
