| dc.description.abstract | This study aimed at examining the relationship between attachment styles, coping strategies, and perceived stress in university students. It also aimed to understand the role of attachment styles and coping strategies as predictors of perceived stress in university students. A sample of undergraduate university students (N=200) between the ages of 19 and 24 (M = 1.35, SD = .48) was taken from HEC-recognized universities in Lahore. All participants completed Adult Attachment Scale (Collins & Read, 1990), Brief-Cope (Carver, 1997), and Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen, 1994). Results showed a significant positive relationship between anxiety attachment and perceived stress. It also stated that coping strategies such as self-distraction, denial, emotional support, instrumental support, behavioral disengagement, and self-blame also have a positive correlation with perceived stress. The results also stated that close attachment was a predictor of perceived stress. Coping strategies such as religion, acceptance, active coping, and behavioral disengagement also predicted perceived stress among university students. Significant gender differences were there in close and dependent attachment styles among university students. Males had a more close and dependent attachment style than females. | |
