Limitations of this study 89 include the short period of follow-up and the sampling of various weight loss programs with different philosophies. Independent variables measured were cognitive hardiness and four coping styles (i.e., positive and negative thinking, avoidance, and problem- focused coping) and the dependent variable was the number of pounds lost over a six-month period. The Stress Assessment Profile developed by Nowack (1990) was the instrument used in this study. The following ques...tions were asked: 1. Is there a significant difference in the amount of weight lost by individuals who are identified as either being high hardy or low hardy on the Stress Assessment Profile (SAP)? 2. Is there a significant difference in the amount of weight lost by individuals who are identified as either being high (problem-focused or active) or low (nonactive) copers on the SAP? 3 . Is there any interaction between hardiness and coping style and the number of pounds lost in a weight loss program by obese individuals who are either high or low in hardiness and coping as measured by the SAP?
