PIERGIOVANNI, Lucía Florencia  and  DEPAULA, Pablo Domingo. Self-efficacy and stress coping styles in university students. Cienc. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.1, pp.17-23. ISSN 1688-4094.  https://doi.org/10.22235/cp.v12i1.1591.

The present investigation analyzed the relationship between the levels of Self efficacy that students of the bachelor´s degree on Psychology have and the Coping Styles that they use to face internal or external requests.

A sample of 126 students was selected. They were given the General Self Efficacy Scale, the Coping Strategies Questionnaire and a social demographic questionnaire. The results show that those students that have more Self-efficacy use the Coping Strategy focused on solving the problem and Positive reappraisal. On the other hand, students that have lower Self-efficacy levels use the Negative self-blameway of coping with stress.

Keywords : Self-efficacy; Stress Coping Styles; University Students.
