Problem Solving Self-Appraisal and Coping Efforts in Distressed and Nondistressed Couples.
Sabourin, Stephane; And Others
Journal of Marital and Family Therapy, v16 n1 p89-97 Jan 1990
Investigated relationship between problem-solving self-appraisal, specific coping efforts, and marital distress in 75 couples. Findings showed less problem-solving confidence, tendency to avoid different problem-solving activities, and poor strategies to control behavior in distressed spouses. Three coping efforts--optimistic comparisons, negotiation, and resignation--differentiated distressed from nondistressed spouses. (Author/PVV)
