Coping with Stress of the Students in Adolescence

Abstract

The article covers the problems of styles of coping with the stress of students during adolescence. 172 teenagers took part in the study. The CISS survey was prepared for the analysis in the study of Strelau et al. and the questionnaire. Studies have shown that there are no significant differences in the styles of coping with stress between boys and girls, when we take into account the frequency of taking active actions and avoidance behaviours. Girls, however, were more often focused on emotions than boys. On the other hand, students struggling with family problems reveal greater difficulties in coping with stress, in comparison with people experiencing tension due to school requirements.
