A recent study from Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine found that for older men, the overall effort put into coping with stress is more crucial for longevity than the specific coping strategies used or the perceived stress level. Researchers analyzed data from 743 men over 27 years and discovered that extensive effort in coping could indicate difficulties in managing stress, emphasizing the need for resources to support the health and well-being of older adults.
Coping refers to the cognitive and behavioral strategies employed to handle stressors that individuals perceive as surpassing their capacity and resources to effectively respond. Although earlier research has associated characteristics of stressors, such as the nature of the event and its duration, with increased mortality risk, there is a significant lack of large-scale studies examining the long-term health effects of our coping mechanisms.
According to the researchers, prior studies in psychological aging show that people gain tremendous expertise in coping with stressors across the lifespan. By the time they reach later life, people tend to be able to use fewer coping strategies than younger adults while achieving the same level of success in managing difficult situations.
