Sažetak
Coping with stressful events and general coping skills are found to be among most important protective factors of mental health, which develop during adolescence, at the same time when young people are faced with a series of developmental stressors. Of three possible coping styles – problem focused coping, emotional focused coping and avoidant coping, one is believed to be less effective than others. Avoidant coping person focuses on cognitive denial of stressful situation followed by low tolerance of negative emotions, all that is found to be positively correlated to internalized problems and emotional distress. Mindfulness, however, represents a contrary mechanism and potentially has a protective role in the prevention of internalized problems caused by ineffective and maladaptive coping strategy. Objective of this study was to test the possible protective role of mindfulness in moderating the relationship between avoidant coping with stress and emotional problems in adolescence. Potential protective role of mindfulness on adolescent mental health was examined through moderation model between avoidant coping style, and emotional difficulties in adolescence. Data were collected between February and May 2022 as a part of the first wave of Longitudinal Adolescent Stress Study (STRESS LOAD Project). This study was conducted on 2153 adolescents aged in average 16, 38 years (SD=0, 712). Brief COPE Scale (Mirjanić & Milas, 2009) was used as a measurement of coping styles, while Croatian version of Child and Adolescent Mindfulness Measure (Greco at al., 2011) was used as a measurement of trait mindfulness, and Emotional Difficulties Subscale of Short SDQ (Goodman, 1997) was used as a measurement of emotional problems in adolescence. Moderation model was tested through PROCESS macro v4.0 by A. Hayes (2012). Significant moderating role of trait mindfulness on the relationship between avoidant coping and emotional problems was found, with the tested model explaining 29, 2% of variance of emotional problems.
