The long-term effects of the Cognitive Adaptation Theory Index (CATI) on psychological and physical health outcomes among men (n = 199) and women (n = 99) treated for coronary artery disease with percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty were examined. The CATI reflects a positive view of the self, a positive view of one's future, and a sense of personal control over daily life. This index was created from questionnaires administered during hospitalization for the initial angioplasty. Four years later, the CATI predicted positive adjustment to disease, even when initial adjustment was taken into consideration. In addition, the CATI predicted a reduced likelihood of sustaining a subsequent cardiac event over 4 years. This association was more robust for men.
研究了认知适应理论指数（CATI）对接受经皮腔内冠状动脉成形术治疗冠心病的男性（n = 199）和女性（n = 99）心理和身体健康结果的长期影响。CATI反映了对自我的积极看法、对未来的积极看法以及对日常生活的个人控制感。该指数由初次血管成形术住院期间进行的问卷调查得出。四年后，即使考虑到初始调整情况，CATI仍能预测对疾病的积极适应。此外，CATI还预测在4年期间发生后续心脏事件的可能性降低。这种关联在男性中更为显著。
