Objective: This study examined whether differences in habitual negative self-thinking and coping strategies might contribute to the age differences in worry and depression. Method: 60 undergraduate students (age range: 18–24 years, M = 19.10, SD = 1.3) and 45 community-dwelling older adults (age range: 60–89 years, M = 73.5, SD = 7.5) participated. Participants completed self-report measures of worry, depression, negative self-thinking, and coping styles. Results: We replicated previous findings that older adults were less worried and less depressed than younger adults. Older adults also reported engaging in less habitual negative thinking and using more problem solving as a coping strategy than younger adults. Furthermore, negative self-thinking and problem-solving skills were found to partially mediate age differences in worry and fully mediate depression scores. Conclusions: These results suggest that habitual negative thinking and problem-solving skills play a role in explaining the lower rates of worry and depression in older populations.

And Coping

The process of career adaptation is counted as a very significant topic, especially regarding career counseling. The aim of that article was to analyze the dependence between type of vocational personality, ambiguity tolerance level and styles of coping with career indecision making. There have been 227 students examined. Each of the examined individuals has got a vocational type of personality referring to gained outcomes from WOPZ questionnaire based on J.L. Holland’s model of vocational personality. Types of vocational personality have been being analyzed according to ambiguity tolerance in career decisions making (by using The Career Decision Ambiguity Tolerance Scale, CDAT) and strategies of coping with career indecision (with usage of Coping with Career Decision-making Difficulties, CCDD). The study has revealed that gender is not associated with personal dispositions as those mentioned above. Individuals characterized by Social type of vocational personality tend to seek help more often than those characterized by other types of vocational personality. Artistic type turned out to be linked to unproductive style of coping with career indecision more than any other type of vocational personality while individuals described as Enterprising type tend to have reversed tendency. Moreover, the present study has indicated that dependence between ambiguity tolerance and productive style of coping with career decisions making does occur.

Considering that individuals who are within a healthy weight range may experience different thoughts about food to those who are already overweight or obese triggers the need to understand the nature, challenges, and coping strategies of food-related thinking styles in this population in relation to those who are either overweight or obese. Analysis of 6 semi-structured qualitative interviews with individuals who are either at risk of being overweight (body mass index [BMI] = 23-24.99), or above a healthy weight (BMI ⩾ 25), revealed 3 overarching themes: (1) Why am I all about food? (2) Jekyll and Hyde, and (3) Emotional attachment to food. These findings highlighted a link between dieting and negative thinking, which foster unhealthy eating patterns. Therefore, intuitive eating may offer a useful alternative to re-establish a healthier relationship with food.
