This study investigated coping strategies used by distance master's level student interns from one rehabilitation counseling program. Analysis of variance revealed a significant difference among five coping strategies. Post hoc comparisons showed that interns used problem-focused and seeking social support more frequently than self-blame, wishful thinking and avoidance coping strategies. Consequently, students were using strategies that have been shown by research to be effective in coping with various events more often than less effective strategies. (Contains 2 tables.)
