The authors' purpose in this paper was to examine how the use of the "sad passive" coping style may be related to adolescent self-reported loneliness. Subjects were asked to complete the revised UCLA Loneliness Scale (Russell, Peplau, & Cutrona, 1980) to determine self-reported loneliness and the Coping with Loneliness Questionnaire (CLQ; Rubenstein & Shaver, 1980) in order to examine coping styles. We hypothesized that those adolescents whose coping strategies fell into the category of sad passivity described by Rubenstein and Shaver would indicate greater loneliness than those adolescents whose coping strategies fell into other categories. Results indicated that sad passivity was used by both lonely and nonlonely adolescents, but that nonlonely youngsters resorted to this method only temporarily and in preparation for a more active coping style. Lonely teens, on the other hand, appeared to remain in the sad-passive mode to a maladaptive degree. These results were discussed in terms of their importance for theories of adolescent loneliness and for possible intervention strategies.
本文作者的目的是研究“悲伤被动”应对方式的使用与青少年自我报告的孤独感之间的关系。研究要求受试者完成修订后的加州大学洛杉矶分校孤独感量表（Russell、Peplau和Cutrona，1980年）以确定自我报告的孤独感，并完成孤独应对问卷（CLQ；Rubenstein和Shaver，1980年）以考察应对方式。我们假设，那些应对策略属于Rubenstein和Shaver所描述的悲伤被动类型的青少年，会比那些应对策略属于其他类型的青少年表现出更强的孤独感。结果表明，孤独和不孤独的青少年都会使用悲伤被动应对方式，但不孤独的青少年只是暂时采用这种方式，并且是为了准备更积极的应对方式。另一方面，孤独的青少年似乎在悲伤被动模式中陷入了适应不良的程度。本文从这些结果对青少年孤独理论和可能的干预策略的重要性方面进行了讨论。
