Depressed mood and coping activities were assessed in a sample of 95 undergraduate medical students using the Beck Depression Inventory and the Coping Strategies Scales. Problem-focused activities were commonly employed by students and were perceived as helpful although activities involving brooding over problems, perceived as less helpful, were also commonly employed. There were few sex differences in employment of specific activities. In terms of coping strategies, depressed students tended to avoid and deny problems and contain their emotions, and depressed females in particular were more passive. It is suggested that while depressed and nondepressed students equally employed apparently adaptive strategies such as problem-solving and cognitive restructuring, the effectiveness of these strategies could be undermined by depressed students' brooding over problems and passivity.
使用贝克抑郁量表和应对策略量表，对95名本科医学生样本的抑郁情绪和应对活动进行了评估。学生们普遍采用以问题为中心的活动，并且认为这些活动是有帮助的，尽管那些涉及反复思考问题的活动被认为帮助较小，但也同样被普遍采用。在具体活动的采用上，性别差异不大。在应对策略方面，抑郁的学生倾向于回避和否认问题，并抑制自己的情绪，尤其是抑郁的女性更为被动。研究表明，虽然抑郁和非抑郁的学生同样采用了诸如解决问题和认知重构等明显具有适应性的策略，但抑郁学生对问题的反复思考和消极被动可能会削弱这些策略的有效性。
