Highlights
- People who used specific coping strategies had an overall lower risk of all-cause mortality than those with “very few” coping strategies in a large population in Japan.
- The relationships between coping strategies and all-cause mortality were all independent of perceived stress levels.
- Our results showed that using coping strategies of emotional expression, emotional support-seeking, and disengagement attitude were associated with lower mortality in women, whereas using coping strategies of emotional expression, positive reappraisal, and problem-solving were associated with lower mortality in men.
- Our results on the interaction between the emotional support-seeking and sex provide evidence suggesting the importance of exploring sex differences to clarify how to intervene depending on the attributes of the target population to prevent mortality.
