Resumo: This paper presents a study involving 341 High School final-year students (from the North of Portugal), aimed at the exploration of the type and levels of stress experienced in their day-to-day lives, as well as the coping strategies they most frequently adopt. The data, based on the application of the Inventory of Stress Factors (12th grade) and the Inventory of Coping Orientation for Problem Experiences, reveal medium stress levels and identify the academic factors as the most stressful. The “Search for support outside the family”, the “Active problem solving” and the “Distraction and problem minimization” emerge as the most frequent coping strategies. Results also highlight the influence of gender, parents’ level of education, and students’ school performance on the levels of stress experienced by this group of final-year students.

Os dados - recolhidos por meio do Inventário de Fatores de Stress (12º ano) e do Inventário de Estratégias de Coping dos Adolescentes face a Experiências Problemáticas - revelam níveis de stress medianos, destacando-se a área acadêmica como a de maior dificuldade. A “Procura de apoio fora da família”; a “Resolução ativa dos problemas” e a “Distração e relativização da situação” surgem como as estratégias de coping mais frequentes. Destaca-se o papel diferenciador das variáveis gênero, escolaridade dos pais e rendimento escolar dos alunos nos níveis de stress experienciado.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2011-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8892Psychological Studies; Vol. 28 No. 3 (2011): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 28 Núm. 3 (2011): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 28 n. 3 (2011): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8892/6295Copyright (c) 2023 Susana CAIRES, Cândida SILVAhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCAIRES, SusanaSILVA, Cândida2024-04-30T17:16:34Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8892Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-30T17:16:34Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
