A paucity of evidence for the validity of coping questionnaires prompted investigation of the Coping Strategy Indicator (CSI; Amirkhan, 1990), a self-report measure of three fundamental modes of coping that has already demonstrated considerable psychometric strength. Three tests of criterion-related validity were performed, with variations in both the types of stressors and respondents sampled. In the first, CSI scores were found to correspond to coping choices made under the threat of electric shock in a laboratory. In the second and third, the CSI correctly identified coping patterns associated with participation in educational and therapeutic programs in more natural settings. Results confirmed the validity and wide applicability of the CSI and suggested avenues for future basic and applied research.
应对问卷有效性的证据不足，促使人们对应对策略指标（CSI；Amirkhan，1990）进行研究，这是一种对三种基本应对方式的自我报告测量方法，已显示出相当强的心理测量优势。进行了三项与标准相关的效度测试，压力源类型和抽样受访者均有所不同。在第一项测试中，发现CSI得分与实验室中电击威胁下做出的应对选择相对应。在第二项和第三项测试中，CSI正确识别了在更自然环境中参与教育和治疗项目所关联的应对模式。结果证实了CSI的有效性和广泛适用性，并为未来的基础研究和应用研究指明了方向。
