Is "What Is Good for the Goose Good for the Gander?": Sex Differences in Relations between Adolescent Coping and Adult Adaptation.

Feldman, S. Shirley; And Others

Journal of Research on Adolescence, v5 n3 p333-59 1995

Found that patterns of associations in adolescent coping and adult adaptation over time differ by sex. Coping and adapting to stress by turning to religion or to friends were found to be sex-specific. Convergence between adolescent coping strategies and traditional gender roles predicted good young-adult adaptation. (TM)
