Strategiile de coping cognitiv-emoțional la elevii de liceu

Abstract

The study aims to identify the strategies of cognitive-emotional coping that are most frequently used by students in adolescence, a period marked by profound and multiple changes. For this purpose, the CERQ questionnaire was applied to a sample of 130 students. They are between 16 and 18 years old and attend the high school education courses of the technological branch, in Timiș County. The aim of the survey was to obtain a relatively balanced distribution of the sexes: 51% girls; 49% boys. The results of the study illustrate that the cognitive-emotional coping strategies of the maladaptive type are the ones that record the highest weights among adolescents. They are found, however, at a higher level among girls.
