[Style of coping with stress and emotional functioning in patients with asthma].
Journal Title: Advances in Respiratory Medicine - Year 2009, Vol 77, Issue 1
Abstract
The evaluation of styles of coping with stress resulting from a somatic disease was always considered controversial, since the stress is a consequence of the complexity of the disease as a stressful event and is linked with every field of human life and activity. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of various styles of coping with stress - task-oriented, emotion-oriented, or avoidance-oriented - used by patients with asthma to cope with their disease and its consequences.
