人们患病时,乐观者能够注意情绪调节,悲观者往往消极沮丧,显然,前者容易康复,而后者对病情不利。当代心理免疫学的研究表明:人在罹患疾病时需要有战胜疾病的信心,这样可有效地调动机体内潜在的免疫力量,促进早日康复。这种心理上坚信自己能战胜疾病的信念,有学者称之为“心理免疫”。 When people are sick, the optimist can pay attention to emotional adjustment, and pessimists tend to be negatively depressed. Obviously, the former is easy to recover and the latter is not good for the illness. Contemporary psychoimmunological research shows that people need to have the confidence to overcome the disease when suffering from diseases, so as to effectively mobilize the potential immune system in the body and promote early recovery. This belief in psychologically convinced that they can overcome the disease, some scholars call it “psychological immunity.”
