How Social and Cultural Contexts Shape the Development of Coping: Youth in the Inner City as an Example
Tolan, Patrick; Grant, Kathryn
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n124 p61-74 Sum 2009
Because the patterns of coping shown by children and youth depend on the particular types and levels of stress they face, it is difficult to understand or study coping, or to promote it in interventions, unless coping is conceptualized as embedded within the overall ecology of stressful conditions, including the demands and resources that influence the use, utility, and impact of coping. (Contains 1 figure.)
