Abstract Antonovsky's Sense of Coherence Scale (SOC) and Bond's Defense Style Questionnaire (DSQ) were compared in a sample of 334 community controls and 122 psychiatric outpatients. The major question was, whether the two coping inventories with different theoretical backgrounds - stress research vs. psychoanalysis - tap similar phenomena. The affinity of the two coping measures was evident: in multiple regression analysis defenses explained 68% of the variance in sense of coherence. Not surprisingly, the SOC scale - emerging out of the salutogenic orientation - showed more expertise in measuring how people manage when they do well, whereas the DSQ - with its theoretical roots deep in psychopathology - was most sensitive to how people manage when they do rather poorly.
