This integrative review of children's perceptions of stressors and coping strategies contained only 14 studies published from September 1979 to March 1989. Most of these descriptive studies were theory-based research using convenience samples of children (aged 8-12 years) in urban settings. Commonly identified stressful events were fear of negative evaluation (adult or peer), parental conflict or loss, and conflict with an adult. Categories of commonly identified coping strategies were social support, physical activities, and avoidance activities. Individual studies reported that more children tended to catastrophize than to cope; normal amounts of stress may enhance a familial tendency for migraines; increased information and age tended to increase the amount of active modes of coping while in the hospital; and children given frequent and complete information about their sibling's illness tended to be more positive about their own development. Recommendations for further research are included.
这篇关于儿童对压力源和应对策略认知的综合综述仅包含1979年9月至1989年3月发表的14项研究。这些描述性研究大多是基于理论的研究，采用城市环境中8至12岁儿童的便利样本。常见的压力事件包括害怕负面评价（来自成人或同龄人）、父母冲突或失去以及与成人的冲突。常见的应对策略类别包括社会支持、体育活动和回避活动。个别研究报告称，更多儿童倾向于灾难化而非应对；正常程度的压力可能会增强家族性偏头痛倾向；在医院时，信息增加和年龄增长往往会增加积极应对方式的数量；而经常获得关于其兄弟姐妹疾病的完整信息的儿童往往对自己的发展更为积极。文中还包含了进一步研究的建议。
