ABSTRACT
The present study examined the relationship between children's coping styles (Spirito, Stark, and Williams, 1988) and self report levels of depressive symptoms (kovacs, 1983) following a major stressor. 257 thrit - to fifth - grade children consented to participate in the study, 5 months following a hurricane. The number of coping strategies employed was positively related to depression scores, whereas coping efficacy was negatively related to depression scores. Social withdrawal, self - blaming, and emotional regulation were associated with more severe depressive symptoms. Lower levels of symptomatology were found among children who sought social support and engaged in cognitive restructuring. The overall symptom level in the sample did not exceed that of normative samples. Results are discussed in terms of competing theories of childhood depression (AU)
