Abstract

The study investigated age and gender effects on coping with common stressors among 494 Austrian children and adolescents (age 8-14 years). Participants were subdivided into subgroups of late children comprising third and fourth graders, early adolescents consisting of fifth and sixth graders, and middle adolescents including seventh graders. Middle adolescents showed a maladaptive coping pattern with decreased problem and emotion-focused coping strategies and increased passive avoidance and aggression. Females scored higher on social support and also on the maladaptive coping strategy rumination. Female middle adolescents reported higher resignation than their male contemporaries and female children. Results suggest the application of primary preventive stress management programs in late childhood and early adolescence.

摘要

该研究调查了494名奥地利儿童和青少年（8至14岁）在应对常见压力源时的年龄和性别差异。参与者被细分为低龄儿童组（包括三年级和四年级学生）、青少年早期组（包括五年级和六年级学生）以及青少年中期组（包括七年级学生）。青少年中期组表现出适应不良的应对模式，以问题为导向和以情绪为导向的应对策略减少，被动回避和攻击行为增加。女性在社会支持以及适应不良的应对策略——沉思方面得分更高。处于青少年中期的女性比同龄男性以及女童报告了更高的顺从程度。研究结果表明应在儿童晚期和青少年早期实施初级预防性压力管理项目。
