Helplessness and Resourcefulness in Coping with Epilepsy.
Rosenbaum, Michael; Palmon, Noami
Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v52 n2 p244-53 Apr 1984
Tested the hypothesis that psychological adjustment to epilepsy would be a joint function of subjects' (N=50) perceived repertoire of self-control skills and the extent to which they were exposed to uncontrollable seizures. Results showed that high-resourceful epileptics exposed to lower frequencies of seizures coped better with their disability. (LLL)
