With the reported increase in life stress in recent years, it is important to understand the relationship between such stress and health. It would be of further value if efficacious and time-limited approaches for coping with life stress were to be developed. This paper presents a brief history of the literature on stress, health, and illness. It focuses particular attention on persons who cope adequately with life stress--stress-resistant persons. It also outlines a four-step program to teach these effective copying skills to more vulnerable persons, and presents preliminary findings and the theoretical and clinical issues involved in its implementation.
近年来，随着生活压力的报道日益增多，了解此类压力与健康之间的关系非常重要。如果能开发出有效且有时限的应对生活压力的方法，将具有更大的价值。本文简要介绍了关于压力、健康和疾病的文献历史。它特别关注那些能充分应对生活压力的人——抗压者。它还概述了一个四步计划，以将这些有效的应对技巧传授给更易受影响的人，并介绍了初步研究结果以及实施该计划所涉及的理论和临床问题。
