    Health Psychology Report, 2016
    Co-Authors: Krzysztof Gąsior, Agata Biedrzycka, Jan Chodkiewicz, Marcin Ziółkowski, Damian Czarnecki, Artur Juczyński, Katarzyna Nowakowska-domagała
    Abstract:

    Background The present study aimed at finding any relation between alcohol craving and strategies of Coping With Stress and satisfaction With life in the addicted. Until now, studies have shown that generalized deficits in Coping With Stress, and the dominance of avoidance strategies, are significantly related to the increase of the risk of addiction and the course of this disease. This relation, which could link strategies of Coping With Stress and quality of life With experiencing alcohol craving, has only been explained to a small extent. Also, the role of gender in explaining these relations is ambiguous. Participants and procedure The study was conducted in a group of 550 addicted subjects in out-patient or in-patient treatment (396 men and 114 women). In the present study the following instruments were used: the Craving Typology Questionnaire by Marinotti et al., the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Drinking Scale by Modell et al., the Mini-Cope by Carver et al., SADD by Reistrick et al., and the Satisfaction With Life Scale by Diener et al. Statistical correlational analysis and structural equations were applied, namely partial least squares path modelling (PLS-PM). Results There are two types of links between craving and strategies of Coping With Stress among the addicted. The first dominating type is pointing at casual link between ineffective strategies of Coping With Stress and craving. The other weaker type indicates the diminishing influence of effective strategies of Coping With Stress on alcohol craving. Life satisfaction lowers alcohol craving. Conclusions Effective strategies of reacting to Stress, together With life satisfaction, protect against increase of alcohol craving. Severity of dependence is an important factor which moderates the influence of strategies of Coping With Stress on alcohol craving

    Cancer nursing, 2015
    Co-Authors: Sema Yilmaz, Meltem Demirgöz Bal, Nezihe Kzlkaya Beji, Macit Arvas
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND Stress is commonly encountered among cancer patients and may be a challenge affecting immune system resistance. Social support may contribute positively to the health of cancer patients, playing a role in Coping With Stress. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine whether ways of Coping are related to social support given to women With gynecologic cancer. METHODS The study was performed as a cross-sectional design in a university hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, With 221 women With gynecologic cancer; the data were collected via 3 questionnaires, the first With sociodemographic and clinical features, the second With multidimensional scale of perceived social support, and the third With the scale of ways of Coping With Stress. RESULTS Women With gynecologic cancer who were employed and declared their incomes as balanced and reported more years of education were more likely to perceive higher social support and to use the ineffective Coping ways With Stress at a lower rate (P < .05) than other participants. Based on correlational analysis, effective Coping ways With Stress increase as perceived social support from family, friends, significant other, and total increases (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Social support from family members is the mainstay of Coping With Stress by women With gynecologic cancer. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Nurses are indispensable in increasing social support required by women With gynecologic cancer. Well-trained clinical nurses via in-service programs should be experienced and aware of women diagnosed With gynecologic cancer in need of social support during hospital visits and provide necessary guidance.

  • A Gender Analysis of Theories of Coping With Stress
    Psychology of Women Quarterly, 1993
    Co-Authors: Victoria L. Banyard, Sandra A. Graham-bermann
    Abstract:

    In this article, various feminist theories are used to critique selected psychological theories of Coping With Stress, a reformulated Coping theory is outlined, and recommendations for future research are made. To date, theories of Coping often portray women as less able copers than the samples of men With whom they are compared. A reformulated theory, based on different women's experiences, explicitly examines the role of social forces (sexism, racism) and access to power as variables in the Coping process rather than solely focusing on the individual. Selected examples of research that contribute to such a revision are given. Revised theories and methodologies will encourage the more accurate appraisal of women's Coping abilities and generate information vital to the creation of more inclusive and representative theories of Coping.
