| dc.description.abstract | This study was undertaken to explore emotional stress experienced by early adolescents in dual-earner families. Data were collected from 152 eighth-grade adolescents, (67 males and 85 females). Degree of role strain, use of coping responses, and level of psychological resources were examined for influence on stress levels in the student, family, and friend roles. Overall, adolescents indicating lower stress levels evidenced stronger psychological resources and used Social Support and Family Support more frequently as coping strategies. Implications of these findings are discussed. | en |
