The article is devoted to the problem of the relationship of personality self-effi cacy and coping behaviour among university students. The authors demonstrate topicality of considering the aspect of coping with life diffi culties among students in connection with the high requirements of society for future professionals, on the one hand, and the high psychological load in the learning process, which leads to stress, on the other hand. Researchers consider self-effi cacy as a resource for coping with stress, and as a personality characteristic that depends on the success of solving diffi cult problems. The study was aimed at solving several problems: comparing the level of general self-effi cacy, self-effi cacy in activities and in the fi eld of communication among students of different courses; identifi cation of the relationship between the level of self-effi cacy and coping strategies in stressful situations for students of different courses (this is the main hypothesis of the study). As a result, the relationship between self-effi cacy and such coping strategies as self-monitoring and activity planning, as well as a strategy for avoiding diffi culties, is shown. However, the assumption that the level of self-effi cacy increases and the choice of coping strategies varies signifi cantly from course to course has not been confi rmed. There is also no connection with sociopsychological adaptation.

This article deals with the problem of the relationship of resilience with the coping behaviour of young people. It justifies the idea that the adaptability and maladaptivity of coping strategies is related to the viability of the individual. Particular attention is paid to the comparative analysis of the coping repertoire of girls and young men with different levels of resilience. The interrelation of types of response to difficulties with the level of resilience is proved. The author comes to the conclusion that resilience involves a wide range of types of response, greater flexibility and ability to adapt behaviour to different situations. The article summarises some of the results of studying adaptive, non-adaptive andrelatively adaptive strategies depending on the level of viability and gender of the subjects. The specificity of communication between different types of coping strategies caused by difficult situations and the level of resilience in men and women from 18 to 35 years of age is discussed.

The work environment of emergency workers is an important factor related to stress. Coping with the COVID-19 emergency is a factor that is highly related to stress, and severe stress is a risk factor for developing secondary trauma. Coping and resilience can help rescue workers to better respond in emergency situations and could protect them from secondary trauma. We aimed to explore the relationship of emergency stress, hardiness, coping strategies, and secondary trauma among emergency workers and the mediating roles of coping strategies and hardiness on the effect of stress in producing secondary trauma. The study involved 513 emergency workers from the Red Cross Committee in Veneto, one of the Italian regions most affected by the COVID-19. Participants completed questionnaires online to measure emergency stress (physical, emotional, cognitive, organizational‒relational, COVID-19, and inefficacy decisional), hardiness, coping strategies, and secondary trauma. Other variables analyzed were age, gender, weekly hours of service, and use of personal protective equipment (PPE). We performed t-tests, a correlational analysis, regressions, and a mediation analysis. Hardiness and coping strategies, in particular, which stop unpleasant emotions and thoughts and problem-focused, emerged as mediators in reducing the predicted effect of stress on secondary trauma. The mediating effects of hardiness and coping strategies were found to reduce the effect of stress on arousal by 15% and the effect on avoidance by 25%.
