PY - 2014 DA - 2014/01/03 TI - Ways of coping with premenstrual change: development and validation of a premenstrual coping measure JO - BMC Women's Health SP - 9000 VL - 14 IS - 1 AB - Negative premenstrual change can result in distress for a significant proportion of women. Previous research has suggested that women employ a range of coping strategies and behaviours in order to manage and reduce premenstrual distress. However, as yet there has been no specific scale available to measure premenstrual coping. This research aimed to develop and validate a measure of premenstrual coping which can be used in future investigations of negative premenstrual experience.
