CORRELATION BETWEEN COPING STRATEGIES AND ROLE CRISIS
Journal Title: Наука і освіта - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 7
Abstract
The article deals with the issue of personality’s role crisis, which is considered as a transition period in one’s life associated with the exchange of personality’s roles. It is always accompanied by the destruction of one’s adaptive, bar- rier function, the loss of usual behaviour patterns and inability to create the new ones. The following roles have been analyzed: “Child”, “Mother / Father”, “Wife / Spouse”, “Professional”, “Woman / Man”, “Adult”. The review of the scientific literature has revealed three levels of psychological regulation (cognitive, affective and behavioural) influen- cing both the success/failure of performing a role by an individual and role crisis formation. Special attention in the article is focused on the behavioural component. The study is aimed at examining the correlation between the coping strategies and role crisis. The following methods were used: the original diagnostic test questionnaire “Propensity to role crisis” by I. Brynza, N. Lishchyna and method “Coping scale” by E. Freidenberg, R. Lewis (adopted by T. Kriuko- va). The experiment involved 241 respondents aged from 18 to 56 years. The data obtained by means of the correlation analysis have made it possible to find the correlation ratio between all parameters studied. Among the women expe- riencing role crisis, the greatest number of correlations has been found with the following coping strategies: “belong- ing”, “self-reproach”, “the inability to abstract oneself”, “the inability to cope”. There were no correlations with the strategy “active leisure”. In case of men’s crisis, there were correlations with the following coping strategies: “the ina- bility to cope”, “active leisure”. There were no correlations with the strategy “belief in miracles” and with the produc- tive style. There is a great difference between the results of women’s and men’s variants. These facts confirm the im- portance of coping strategies in emotional experience caused by the role crisis.
