“…Coping reactions emitted in response to stressful or otherwise challenging events can be highly particular, emerging in the context of youths' construction of the controllability of the difficult event, the actual content and circumstances of the event itself, broader sociocultural factors, individual learning histories, and personal resources (Compas et al, 2001; Tolan & Grant, 2009). A number of studies thus support the key notion that how a youth responds situationally to a stressor is linked to relatively stable background factors as well as stress mobilization processes in which particular stressors elicit particular coping reactions, perhaps even idiosyncratically or in highly specific ways (Bjorck & Cohen, 1993; Dubow, Pargament, Boxer, & Tarakeshwar, 2000).…”
