Examined the coping styles and health behaviors of hypertensive and normotensive patients visiting a primary care setting for acute medical problems. Hypertensive individuals were far more likely to display a "high-monitoring" (information-seeking) mode of coping than normotensive individuals, who tended to be "low monitoring" (information avoiding) in their coping. Although hypertensive patients reported less dysfunction in their current medical problems than did normotensive patients, they nonetheless reported greater concerns about their condition and its impact. Finally, hypertensive patients were rated by physicians as more likely to desire help with both their presenting medical problem and their stress-related problems. Future research should help to specify the exact relations among coping style, stress, and symptom reporting in hypertension.
