在这项研究中，作者检查了严重急性呼吸系统综合症（SARS）爆发的预期收益和成本。利益和成本的混合计算，而不是仅仅考虑利益或成本，被认为是社会心理资源的非防御性和持久变化的特征。参与者包括70名“沙士”康复者、59名“沙士”康复者的家属，以及172名居住在香港受“沙士”影响地区的健康成年人。结果表明，只考虑利益的参与者比混合考虑和只考虑成本的参与者有更高的防御水平。只有混合帐户提供的福利的感知影响与未来18个月期间个人和社会资源的累积有关。
In this study, the authors examined perceived benefits and costs of the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Mixed accounts of benefits and costs, rather than exclusive accounts of only benefits or costs, were proposed to be characterized by nondefensiveness and enduring changes in psychosocial resources. Participants were 70 SARS recoverers, 59 family members of SARS recoverers, and 172 healthy adults residing in Hong Kong-a SARS-affected region. Results show that participants giving an exclusive account of benefits had higher levels of defensiveness than those giving a mixed account and those giving an exclusive account of costs. Only the perceived impact of benefits given in mixed accounts were related to future accruements in personal and social resources over an 18-month period.
