Studies of response to nuclear threat have produced several "typologies" of coping and defense mechanisms. In this paper, a model of the sequence of processes by which people deal with recurrent fears about nuclear war is proposed, drawing on risk perception and stress paradigms. It is shown how the accumulated data can be interpreted in terms of appraisal processes and schemata, and that "activism" is but one coping mechanism rather than the logical outcome of effective coping. The implications for psychologists concerned about the nuclear threat are considered.
对核威胁反应的研究产生了几种应对和防御机制的“类型学”。本文借鉴风险认知和压力范式,提出了一个人们应对对核战争反复恐惧的过程序列模型。展示了如何根据评估过程和图式来解释积累的数据,以及“行动主义”只是一种应对机制,而非有效应对的逻辑结果。还考虑了该研究对关注核威胁的心理学家的启示。
