 It has been discovered that stress-coping behavior is relative to the onset and treatment responses of mental illnesses. We compared the stress-coping behavior of female subjects with and without depression (i.e., clinical and control, respectively) using the Japanese edition of the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS). Furthermore, we examined by whether intensive Naikan therapy would lead to any change in the coping style of female subjects with depression. The results are as follows:In contrast to the control subjects, the clinical subjects, that is, the patients with depression showed a tendency to adopt an emotion-oriented coping style, which was positively and significantly correlated with the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores;The scores of task-oriented coping increased, while those of emotion-oriented coping decreased after intensive Naikan therapy;SDS scores decreased after intensive Naikan therapy. Overall, the results indicate that intensive Naikan therapy may bring about an improvement in female stress-coping behavior as well as depressive symptoms. They also indicate that the treatment/protective efficacies can be expected to be as effective for the treatment and prevention of possible recurrence of depression, as other well-known psychosocial treatment methods, such as interpersonal therapy, cognitive therapy, and behavioral therapy.
