Validation of Scale Measuring Coping Strategies of Adults
Preetika Badgujar, Sophia Gir
Abstract :
A multidimensional scale on coping was constructed and developed to assess the different ways in which adults respond to a challenging situation. The scale consists of 62 items on various types of coping (confronting, denial, acceptance, problem solving, hired help). The standardization of the tool was conducted on 60 subjects between the age of 35 to 55 years. The content of the structured scale was validated by a panel of experts. The reliability and validity of the tool was computed and was found to be acceptable. The constructed scale hence was found to be an acceptable instrument to assess coping strategies used by middle age working adults.
