Little is known about how children suffering from bronchial asthma assess their own capabilities to cope with the asthmatic symptoms. This descriptive study is designed to record how frequently and effectively children with bronchial asthma (n = 29) make use of coping strategies. An American self-assessment instrument, the Schoolagers' Coping Strategies Inventor, (SCSI), was used in its German translation to test whether or not it is appropriate for use with German children. The German Inventory is appropriate for use (alpha-coeffizient Frequency 0.72, Effectiveness 0.71). There are only two strategies that should be changed in the German translation in order to help German children understand it better: Our study shows that the five strategies "Watch TV or listen to music", "Draw, write or read something", "Do something about it", "Play a game or something" and "Talk to someone" that are used most frequently are also considered to be the most effective ones. In addition, we observed that there are strategies that are rarely used by the children but which are still considered to be effective. A comparison of the studies performed in the USA and in Germany reveals that good strategies to take the minds of both American and German children off things are watching TV and listening to music. Aggressive behaviors do not play any major role.
对于患有支气管哮喘的儿童如何评估自己应对哮喘症状的能力，我们知之甚少。这项描述性研究旨在记录支气管哮喘患儿（n = 29）使用应对策略的频率和效果。我们使用了一份美国的自我评估工具——学龄儿童应对策略量表（SCSI）的德文译本，来测试其是否适用于德国儿童。该德文量表适用（频率的α系数为0.72，效果的α系数为0.71）。在德文译本中，只需更改两条策略，就能帮助德国儿童更好地理解：我们的研究表明，最常使用的“看电视或听音乐”“画画、写作或阅读”“采取行动”“玩游戏之类的活动”以及“与他人交谈”这五条策略，也被认为是最有效的策略。此外，我们观察到有些策略儿童很少使用，但仍被认为是有效的。美国和德国的研究比较显示，让美国和德国儿童转移注意力的好策略都是看电视和听音乐。攻击性行为并不起主要作用。
