Relationships between coping style and psychological functioning were examined in a heterogeneous community sample (N = 168). Psychological functioning was categorized with the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI; Morey, 1991). Subjects were assigned to PAI configural profile clusters, using T-scores from PAI clinical scales. Three PAI clusters were prominent in this sample: normal, anxious, and eccentric. Multivariate analysis of covariance revealed that these clusters differed significantly in coping style, as measured by the dispositional format of the COPE Inventory (Carver, Scheier, & Weintraub, 1989). Normals coped through avoidance significantly less than anxious or eccentric subjects. Also, normals engaged in seeking social support and venting more than eccentric but less than anxious subjects. Gender differences also were noted, with women more likely to cope by seeking social support and men more likely to cope through hedonistic escapism.
在一个异质性社区样本（N = 168）中，研究了应对方式与心理功能之间的关系。使用人格评估量表（PAI；莫雷，1991）对心理功能进行分类。根据PAI临床量表的T分数，将受试者分配到PAI构型剖面图集群中。该样本中有三个突出的PAI集群：正常型、焦虑型和古怪型。多变量协方差分析显示，这些集群在应对方式上存在显著差异，这是通过应对方式问卷（卡弗、谢尔和温特劳布，1989）的特质形式来衡量的。正常型受试者通过回避应对的情况明显少于焦虑型或古怪型受试者。此外，正常型受试者寻求社会支持和发泄的行为比古怪型受试者多，但比焦虑型受试者少。还发现了性别差异，女性更倾向于通过寻求社会支持来应对，而男性更倾向于通过享乐主义逃避来应对。
