Strategie radzenia sobie ze stresem u młodzieży w okresie dorastania

Coping strategies among adolescentsAdolescents experience many stressful situations, concerning mainly personal problems as well as family, school, and peers problems. In such stressful situations, they employ different coping strategies. The aim of this study was to determine the types of coping strategies depending on the character of a stressful situation. 451 adolescents were investigated (278 girls and 173 boys) with Ways of Coping Questionnaire by R. Lazarus and S. Folkman, prepared by Z. Uchnast (1995), Religious Coping Questionnaire (RCOPE) by K. I. Pargament in Polish adaptation by E. Talik and L. Szewczyk (2008) and an original Survey. Results of the research demonstrate that in addition to traditional coping strategies, adolescents use religious coping strategies as well.
