“…The measures most frequently used are the revised Ways of Coping Questionnaire (Dunkel-Schetter, Feinstein, Taylor, & Falke, 1992; List et al, 2002; Reynolds et al, 2000), the COPE Inventory (Carver, Scheier, & Weintraub, 1989; Green, Pakenham, Headley, & Gardiner, 2002), and the Jalowiec Coping Scale (Jalowiec & Powers, 1981; Kuo & Ma, 2002). These measures, however, were derived from research conducted with predominately Caucasian populations (Carver et al, 1989), and may not be valid for use with older African American cancer survivors.…”
