BACKGROUND
Aspinwall and Tedeschi (Ann Behav Med, 2010) summarize evidence they view as supporting links between positive psychological states, including sense of coherence (SOC) and optimism and health outcomes, and they refer to persistent assumptions that interfere with understanding how positive states predict health.
PURPOSE
We critically evaluate Aspinwall and Tedeschi's assertions.
METHODS
We examine evidence related to SOC and optimism in relation to physical health, and revisit proposed processes linking positive psychological states to health outcomes, particularly via the immune system in cancer.
RESULTS
Aspinwall and Tedeschi's assumptions regarding SOC and optimism are at odds with available evidence. Proposed pathways between positive psychological states and cancer outcomes are not supported by existing data. Aspinwall and Tedeschi's portrayal of persistent interfering assumptions echoes a disregard of precedent in the broader positive psychology literature.
CONCLUSION
Positive psychology's interpretations of the literature regarding positive psychological states and cancer outcomes represent a self-perpetuating story line without empirical support.
背景
阿斯皮纳尔和泰德eschi（Ann Behav Med，2010）总结了他们认为支持积极心理状态（包括心理一致感和乐观）与健康结果之间联系的证据，他们提到了一些持续存在的假设，这些假设干扰了人们对积极状态如何预测健康的理解。
目的
我们批判性地评估阿斯皮纳尔和泰德eschi 的论断。
方法
我们考察了与身体健康有关的 SOC 和乐观的证据，并重新审视了将积极心理状态与健康结果联系起来的拟议过程，特别是通过免疫系统与癌症的关系。
结果
阿斯皮纳尔和泰德eschi 对 SOC 和乐观的假设与现有证据相矛盾。积极心理状态与癌症结果之间的拟议途径没有得到现有数据的支持。阿斯皮纳尔和泰德eschi 对持续存在的干扰性假设的描述反映了他们对更广泛的积极心理学文献中先例的忽视。
结论
积极心理学对积极心理状态与癌症结果相关文献的解释代表了一种没有经验支持的自我延续的故事情节。
