Overview

Young people need to cope in a variety of settings, including school, home, peer groups and the workplace, and with a range of life problems such as divorce and examinations. This new edition of Adolescent Coping presents the latest research and applications in the field of coping. It highlights the ways in which coping can be measured, and in particular details a widely used adolescent coping instrument. Topics of general interest such as the different ways in which boys and girls cope and coping in the family are considered in light of past and recent research findings. Whilst topics such as depression, eating disorders, self-harm and grief and loss are addressed, there is a substantial focus on the positive aspects of coping, including an emphasis on resilience and the achievement of happiness. Topics such as decisional coping, problem solving and social coping, particularly with an emphasis on practice, are presented. Each chapter is introduced and includes quotations from young people. In addition to the wide-ranging research findings that are reported, many of the chapters consider implications and applications of the relevant findings. Adolescent Coping will be of interest to students of psychology, social work, sociology, education and youth and community work as well as to an audience of parents and adolescents.
