“…Moreover, results implied that those who avoid more are said to be less happy because they feel less in control of their lives and are less mentally healthy (Dijkstra & Homan, 2016). While Tan & Pang (2012) discussed that the association between achievement motivation and environmental mastery was found to be mediated by escape-avoidance coping, which did not differ significantly across male and female students.…”

“…Students' levels of effort and coping strategies are also influenced by their beliefs about their own abilities and how much control they have over the results (Hsieh et al, 2012). Moreover, Tan & Pang (2012) emphasized the significance of using accomplishment goals as a framework to understand gender disparities in the types of coping mechanisms employed, as well as how these coping mechanisms affect how students respond to unfavorable feedback. It can be assumed that students will perform better academically if they can adjust and handle academic and personal challenges better (Yazon et al, 2018).…”

This study intends to determine whether the demographic profile and the coping strategies significantly relate to the working students' academic performance level using the mixed method approach. There were 206 respondents randomly selected among the 320 working students from public secondary schools in San Jose West District for school year 2021-2022.The qualitative data gathered from the interview underwent thematic analysis, while the quantitative data gathered were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using WarpPLS version 7. Based on the results of the interview, eight coping strategies were extracted as the main themes from the respondents' narratives. These became the bases for constructing the survey questionnaire related to coping strategies of working students namely, escape-avoidance, grit, leisure, planful problem-solving, religiosity, resilience, seeking social support, and time management. The findings presented that the working students often used their preferred coping strategies. They also had satisfactory academic performance in English and Mathematics, as well as very satisfactory performance in Filipino. Among the given profile variables of the working students, age, sex, and nature of work revealed a significant relationship with the academic performance while the academic performance was significantly related to only four indicators of coping strategies namely, escape-avoidance, grit, religiosity, and time management. With these results, it was recommended to establish a policy to monitor the progress of working students and to implement an intervention program in order to address any coping strategies that have a direct influence on their academic performance.

“…In studies of employees’ reactions to organizational change, for example, problem‐focused coping predicted favorable attitudes towards the change (for a review see Vakola, Armenakis, & Oreg, ). In other research, linking coping style with reactions to performance feedback, problem‐focused coping was positively, and emotion‐focused coping negatively, associated with individuals’ sense of confidence following failure feedback (Tan & Pang, ). Correspondingly, some have proposed that problem‐focused coping will be positively, and emotion‐focused coping negatively, associated with the likelihood of trying to correct those aspects on which feedback is negative (Johnson & Connelly, ).…”

When Do Leaders Initiate Changes? The Roles of Coping Style and Organization Members’ Stability‐Emphasizing Values

2019

We explore the roles of leaders' coping style and organization members' emphasis on stability in predicting leaders' initiation of changes in their organizations. Specifically, we hypothesized that leaders' problem-focused style will be positively, and emotion-focused style negatively, related to the initiation of change. We further proposed that organization members' emphasis on stability will moderate the effect of leaders' problem-focused style. We tested our model using time-lagged data from 75 school principals and 495/409 (Time 1/ Time 2) teachers. Our results support the moderating role that the emphasis on stability has on the effect of problem-focused coping on leaders' initiation of changes and provide some support for the negative effect of emotion-focused coping. Our findings complement the psychological literature on recipients of change with psychological insights about the factors that make leaders become change agents.

“…Achievement motive has been examined relative to a range of motivational constructs including academic achievement (Dickhauser et al, 2016), coping strategies (Tan & Pang, 2012), selfesteem (Mohanty & Nayak, 2016), athletic performance (Gardner et al, 2015;Zuber & Conzelmann, 2014), and intelligence (Bergold & Steinmayr, 2016). Dickhauser et al (2016) reported a positive relationship between HS and a negative relationship between FF and intrinsic motivation and academic achievement.…”

“…Bergold and Steinmayr (2016) found a negative relationship between FF and intelligence, yet there was no relationship between HS and intelligence. Several studies focused only on HS, reporting a positive relationship between HS and coping strategies (Tan & Pang, 2012), self-esteem (Mohanty & Nayak, 2016), and athletic performance (Zuber & Conzelmann, 2014).…”

The purpose of this study was to explore self-reported physical health and achievement motives in a sample of adult cannabis consumers. An online target sample ( n = 181) of adult cannabis consumers ( M = 38 yoa) was obtained from a cannabis tourism company in Colorado. Physical health and the primary benefit of cannabis use were self-reported and achievement motives were measured using the revised 10-item version of the Achievement Motives Scale (AMS). Results revealed five categories of benefit from cannabis consumption: stress/anxiety reduction (40%), pain/disease management (38.5%), thinking/introspection (11%), alternative drug (7.1%), and enhanced sociability (3%). t test results revealed no significant differences between the stress/anxiety and pain/disease groups in self-reported health (SRH), AMS dimensions, or cannabis consumption preferences. Regression results revealed that AMS factor fear of failure ( b = −0.224, p = .003), followed by cannabis spending per week ( b = −0.217, p = .024) best predicted SRH.
