Seventy-five Education students completed four questionnaires assessing these variables. Significant correlations were found for stress with total number of coping strategies and the use of avoidance-focused coping strategies. As well, there was a significant correlation between social support from friends and emotion-focused coping strategies. Gender differences were found, with women reporting more social support from friends than men. Implications of these results for counselling university students are discussed.}, number={3}, journal={Canadian Journal of Counselling and Psychotherapy}, author={Dwyer, Andrea L. and Cummings, Anne L.}, year={2007}, month={Jan.} }
