Attributions for stress in one's life are one of the important determinants of self-regulatory coping processes. Research was conducted to examine the impact of considering a possible cause of stress on attributions and coping behavior. Participants in two studies were prompted to assess the role of a particular cause of their relationship stress (Study 1) or everyday stress (Study 2). As expected, participants in both studies tended to select coping procedures aimed at treating the randomly selected cause rather than alternative possible causes of their stress. Hence, selectively considering a possible cause of their personal problems biased participants' coping intentions. The findings from both studies suggest that the effects of selective causal thinking on coping behavior resulted from the overestimation of the responsibility of the judged cause of stress. |
