Preventive coping among people with severe mental illness in daily life: Strategies used and associations with mood

Conclusions:
Findings supported that preventive strategies are frequently used by members of this population, and that accessing social support and engaging in activities/hobbies are the most frequently used preventive strategies. Findings also suggest that the use of no or more passive preventive strategies was associated with less positive mood at end of day.
