Abstract

Strokes are stressful, debilitating experiences. Cognitive framing may affect coping with stroke. Data from a large national stroke study examined associations among stroke survivors’ coping strategies, depressive symptoms, functional status, moderating for childhood adversity. Early adversity moderated associations between coping and psychological/functional outcomes and highlighted the importance of cognitive framing.
