This study evaluated individual differences in coping style in response to an abortion procedure. The 55 subjects displayed a wide range of responses, although the average level of distress was fairly high. These women were quite similar to other stressed populations in their response to the Impact of Event Scale, providing evidence for a generalized stress response syndrome. When divided into groups based on coping style, "avoiders" were found to experience more distress that "nonavoiders," and "approachers" decreased in distress over time while "nonapproachers" did not. The implications of these findings are discussed in the context of the interaction between coping styles and counseling strategies.
本研究评估了应对堕胎手术时应对方式的个体差异。55名受试者表现出广泛的反应，尽管痛苦的平均水平相当高。这些女性在对事件影响量表的反应上与其他压力人群非常相似，为普遍的应激反应综合征提供了证据。根据应对方式分组时，发现“回避者”比“非回避者”经历更多痛苦，“接近者”随着时间推移痛苦减轻，而“非接近者”则没有。这些发现的意义在应对方式与咨询策略之间的相互作用背景下进行了讨论。
