DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The specific aims of this research proposal include: (1) to evaluate the utilization of religious/spiritual coping (RSC) and its association with health outcomes among lung transplant candidates and primary caregivers, (2) to examine the relationship between nonreligious coping and health outcomes among candidates and caregivers, (3) to evaluate change in these factors over time during a 6-month waiting period, (4) to examine reciprocal effects of these factors among candidate and caregiver dyads, (5) to evaluate how these factors differ between candidates and caregivers, and (6) to determine if RSC predicts health outcomes when controlling for nonreligious coping. The long-term objectives of the study are to provide empirical research on RSC among lung transplant candidates and caregivers, to understand the effects of the lung transplantation process on caregivers, and to further understand the relationship between RSC and health. Participants will complete a self-report packet of questionnaires upon entering the study (after being approved for listing as a lung transplant candidate) and at 3-month and 6-month follow ups. Health data will be obtained from the medical charts of transplant candidates and from self-report data at baseline and follow-up evaluations.

描述(申请人提供)：本研究方案的具体目标包括：(1)评估肺移植受试者和主要照顾者中宗教/精神应对(RSC)的使用及其与健康结果的关系；(2)检查受试者和照顾者中非宗教应对与健康结果之间的关系；(3)评估这些因素在6个月等待期内的变化；(4)检查这些因素在受试者和照顾者之间的相互影响；(5)评估这些因素在受试者和照顾者之间的差异；以及(6)确定RSC在控制非宗教应对时是否预测健康结果。这项研究的长期目标是在肺移植候选人和照顾者中提供关于RSC的实证研究，了解肺移植过程对照顾者的影响，并进一步了解RSC与健康的关系。参与者将在进入研究时(在被批准列为肺移植候选对象后)以及在3个月和6个月的随访中完成一份自我报告的问卷。健康数据将从移植候选者的病历以及基线和后续评估的自我报告数据中获得。
