[Styles of coping with stress and emotional reactions of patients after myocardial infarction].
The aim of the study is to answer the question: What are emotional responses in myocardial infarction patients who are characterized by specific coping styles? 101 males after first, uncomplicated myocardial infarction (MI) participated in this study. Coping styles were assessed by the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS) by N.S. Endler and J.D.A. Parker. Emotional responses were assessed by the Profile of Mood States (PMS) by D. McNair, M. Lorra and L.F. Droppleman, and the Attitude Toward the Illness Scale developed by K. Wrześniewski. Patients characterized by the high Emotion Oriented Coping Style had a tendency to react to situations related to MI with strong negative emotions and unfavorable attitude toward the illness. Patients characterized by the high Task Oriented Coping Style had a tendency to react to situations related to MI with lower depression and favorable attitude toward the illness. High Emotion and Low Task Oriented Coping Styles, and Social Diversion Coping Style are unadapted for MI patients.
