RESUMO
An interaction of mean ratings of support and intent to vote for officials between scenarios in which the religion of a government official offering a prayer was experimentally manipulated, and the reported reaction of the community, was related to 64 college women's support and intention to vote for the official. Importance of religion to the participants contributed significant variance as a covariate.

31 surveyed physicians perceived that between one-third and two-thirds of patients do not comply with instructions, and that nearly one-third of those who comply do not show optimal treatment response. The physicians expressed concerns about the validity and cost of complementary approaches that might increase medical compliance and enhance treatment response.

The relations for religious coping with types of drinking motivation were examined in 178 college students. Participants completed the Ways of Religious Coping Scale and the Drinking Motives Questionnaire. As expected, correlations suggested that amount of alcohol used as well as social and enhancement motives for using were negatively related to religious coping scores. These relations were more clearly evident among women than among men. Coping motivation for alcohol use and religious coping were not significantly correlated.

The present study examined the relationship between children's coping styles (Spirito, Stark, and Williams, 1988) and self report levels of depressive symptoms (kovacs, 1983) following a major stressor. 257 thrit - to fifth - grade children consented to participate in the study, 5 months following a hurricane. The number of coping strategies employed was positively related to depression scores, whereas coping efficacy was negatively related to depression scores. Social withdrawal, self - blaming, and emotional regulation were associated with more severe depressive symptoms. Lower levels of symptomatology were found among children who sought social support and engaged in cognitive restructuring. The overall symptom level in the sample did not exceed that of normative samples. Results are discussed in terms of competing theories of childhood depression (AU)
