Abstract

The paper reviews the results of several regarding the coping strategies of migrant adolescents in Italy. Distinguishing between problem-focused coping and emotion-focused coping, the data highlight a prevalence of emotion-focused coping in second generation adolescents. Further investigation is needed in order to examine the relation between age, nationality, and coping strategies.
