Abstract

Building on research that links gender to differences in well-being and differences in stress exposure and vulnerability, the current study examines how coping styles are gendered in ways that may contribute to sex differences in depressive symptoms and delinquent behavior. The study disaggregates stress measures to reflect gender differences in the experience of stress, examining whether avoidant, approach, and action coping condition the relationship between stress and well-being. Regression analyses were conducted using data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. Results revealed sex differences and similarities. The interaction of avoidant coping and stress helped explain why girls had more depressive symptoms than boys, action coping increased delinquent behavior for girls, while approach coping decreased delinquent behavior for boys and girls. Assisting adolescents in developing coping styles that discourage avoiding problems or taking quick action, but that encourage problem-solving, can improve well-being, regardless of sex

A multiple regression imputation was used to handle missing income cases, for which 22% of the data was missing. The imputed regression equation includes the interviewed parent’s marital status, interviewed parent’s highest level of education, highest level of education of that parent’s partner (if there was one), respondent’s race, reported ability to pay bills, and receipt of food stamps. After confirming the equation for cases not missing income by regressing income on these variables, missing income cases were replaced with the predicted value. To determine if those respondents who did not report income (i.e., missing before replacement) were systematically different than those who did, a dummy variable for those who did not report income was included in a preliminary regression analyses on outcome. The coefficient was not significant, indicating no difference, so the dummy variable was excluded from further analyses.
