<p>The <a href="Psychology" title="Psychology">psychological</a> coping mechanisms are commonly termed <i>coping strategies</i> or <i>coping skills</i>. The term <i>coping</i> generally refers to adaptive (constructive) coping strategies, that is, strategies which reduce stress. In contrast, other coping strategies may be coined as maladaptive, if they increase stress. Maladaptive coping is therefore also described, based on its outcome, as non-coping. Furthermore, the term coping generally refers to <i>reactive coping</i>, i.e. the coping response which follows the <a href="Stressor" title="Stressor">stressor</a>. This differs from <i>proactive coping</i>, in which a coping response aims to neutralize a future stressor. Subconscious or unconscious strategies (e.g. <a href="Defence_mechanism" title="Defence mechanism">defense mechanisms</a>) are generally excluded from the area of coping.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The effectiveness of the coping effort depends on the type of stress, the individual, and the circumstances. Coping responses are partly controlled by <a href="Personality" title="Personality">personality</a> (habitual traits), but also partly by the <a href="Social_environment" title="Social environment">social environment</a>, particularly the nature of the stressful environment.<sup id="cite_ref-Carver_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Carver-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> People using problem-focused strategies try to deal with the cause of their problem. They do this by finding out <a href="Information" title="Information">information</a> on the problem and learning new skills to manage the problem. Problem-focused coping is aimed at changing or eliminating the source of the stress. The three problem-focused coping strategies identified by Folkman and Lazarus are: taking control, information seeking, and evaluating the pros and cons. However, problem-focused coping may not be necessarily adaptive, but backfire, especially in the uncontrollable case that one cannot make the problem go away.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEHarrington2013303_7-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHarrington2013303-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

Avoidance of the emotional distress will distract from the negative feelings associated with the stressor. Emotion-focused coping is well suited for stressors that seem uncontrollable (ex. a terminal illness diagnosis, or the loss of a loved one).<sup id="cite_ref-Carver,_C._S._2011_19-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Carver,_C._S._2011-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Some mechanisms of emotion focused coping, such as distancing or avoidance, can have alleviating outcomes for a short period of time, however they can be detrimental when used over an extended period.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Humor">Humor</h3></div>
<p>Humor used as a positive coping method may have useful benefits to emotional and mental health well-being.

</p><p>Using humor in coping while processing feelings can vary depending on life circumstance and individual humor styles.

<ul><li>Anxious avoidance is when a person avoids anxiety provoking situations by all means. This is the most common method.</li>

<li>Escape is closely related to avoidance. This technique is often demonstrated by people who experience panic attacks or have phobias.

<li>The use of self-defeating humor means that a person disparages themselves in order to entertain others.

<li>Procrastination is when a person willingly delays a task in order to receive a temporary relief from stress.

<p>Otto Fenichel summarized early psychoanalytic studies of coping mechanisms in children as "a gradual substitution of actions for mere discharge reactions...[&] the development of the function of judgement" – noting however that "behind all active types of mastery of external and internal tasks, a readiness remains to fall back on passive-receptive types of mastery."<sup id="cite_ref-45" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-45"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>45<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In adult cases of "acute and more or less 'traumatic' upsetting events in the life of normal persons", Fenichel stressed that in coping, "in carrying out a 'work of learning' or 'work of adjustment', [s]he must acknowledge the new and less comfortable reality and fight tendencies towards regression, towards the misinterpretation of reality", though such rational strategies "may be mixed with relative allowances for rest and for small regressions and compensatory wish fulfillment, which are recuperative in effect".<sup id="cite_ref-46" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-46"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>In the 1940s, the <a href="Germany" title="Germany">German</a> <a href="Freudian" class="mw-redirect" title="Freudian">Freudian</a> <a href="Psychoanalyst" class="mw-redirect" title="Psychoanalyst">psychoanalyst</a> Karen Horney "developed her mature theory in which individuals cope with the anxiety produced by feeling unsafe, unloved, and undervalued by disowning their spontaneous feelings and developing elaborate strategies of defence."<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Horney defined four so-called coping strategies to define interpersonal relations, one describing <a href="Mental_health" title="Mental health">psychologically healthy</a> individuals, the others describing <a href="Neurosis" title="Neurosis">neurotic</a> states.
</p><p>The healthy strategy she termed "Moving with" is that with which psychologically healthy people develop relationships. It involves compromise. In order to move with, there must be communication, agreement, disagreement, compromise, and decisions. The three other strategies she described – "Moving toward", "Moving against" and "Moving away" – represented neurotic, unhealthy strategies people utilize in order to protect themselves.
</p><p>Horney investigated these patterns of neurotic needs (compulsive attachments).<sup id="cite_ref-48" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The neurotics might feel these attachments more strongly because of difficulties within their lives. If the neurotic does not experience these needs, they will experience anxiety. The ten needs are:<sup id="cite_ref-49" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-49"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>49<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p>
<ol><li>Affection and approval, the need to please others and be liked.</li>
<li>A partner who will take over one's life, based on the idea that love will solve all of one's problems.</li>
<li>Restriction of one's life to narrow borders, to be undemanding, satisfied with little, inconspicuous; to simplify one's life.</li>
<li><a href="Power_(social_and_political)" title="Power (social and political)">Power</a>, for control over others, for a facade of omnipotence, caused by a desperate desire for strength and dominance.</li>
<li>Exploitation of others; to get the better of them.</li>
<li>Social recognition or prestige, caused by an abnormal concern for appearances and popularity.</li>
<li>Personal admiration.</li>
<li>Personal achievement.</li>
<li>Self-sufficiency and independence.</li>
<li>Perfection and unassailability, a desire to be perfect and a fear of being flawed.</li></ol>
<p>In Compliance, also known as "Moving toward" or the "Self-effacing solution", the individual moves towards those perceived as a threat to avoid retribution and getting hurt, "making any sacrifice, no matter how detrimental."<sup id="cite_ref-50" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-50"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>50<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The argument is, "If I give in, I won't get hurt." This means that: if I give everyone I see as a potential threat whatever they want, I will not be injured (physically or emotionally). This strategy includes neurotic needs one, two, and three.<sup id="cite_ref-Boeree_51-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Boeree-51"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>51<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In Withdrawal, also known as "Moving away" or the "Resigning solution", individuals distance themselves from anyone perceived as a threat to avoid getting hurt – "the 'mouse-hole' attitude ... the security of unobtrusiveness."<sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>52<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The argument is, "If I do not let anyone close to me, I won't get hurt." A neurotic, according to Horney desires to be distant because of being abused. If they can be the extreme introvert, no one will ever develop a relationship with them. If there is no one around, nobody can hurt them. These "moving away" people fight personality, so they often come across as cold or shallow. This is their strategy. They emotionally remove themselves from society. Included in this strategy are neurotic needs three, nine, and ten.<sup id="cite_ref-Boeree_51-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Boeree-51"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>51<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In Aggression, also known as the "Moving against" or the "Expansive solution", the individual threatens those perceived as a threat to avoid getting hurt. Children might react to parental in-differences by displaying anger or hostility. This strategy includes neurotic needs four, five, six, seven, and eight.<sup id="cite_ref-53" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-53"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>53<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

This coping classification is focused on the behavior workers can display towards clients when confronted with stress. They show that during public service delivery there are three main families of coping:
</p>
<ul><li>Moving <i>towards</i> clients: Coping by helping clients in stressful situations. An example is a teacher working overtime to help students.</li>
<li>Moving <i>away from</i> clients: Coping by avoiding meaningful interactions with clients in stressful situations. An example is a public servant stating "the office is very busy today, please return tomorrow."</li>
<li>Moving <i>against</i> clients: Coping by confronting clients. For instance, teachers can cope with stress when working with students by imposing very rigid rules, such as no cellphone use in class and sending everyone to the office when they use a cellphone. Furthermore, <a href="Aggression" title="Aggression">aggression</a> towards clients is also included here.</li></ul>
<p>In their systematic review of 35 years of the literature, the scholars found that the most often used family is moving <i>towards</i> clients (43% of all coping fragments). Moving <i>away from</i> clients was found in 38% of all coping fragments and Moving <i>against</i> clients in 19%.

<p>Gender differences in coping strategies are the ways in which men and women differ in managing <a href="Psychological_stress" title="Psychological stress">psychological stress</a>. There is evidence that males often develop stress due to their careers, whereas females often encounter stress due to issues in interpersonal relationships.<sup id="cite_ref-Davis_61-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Davis-61"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>61<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Early studies indicated that "there were gender differences in the sources of stressors, but gender differences in coping were relatively small after controlling for the source of stressors";<sup id="cite_ref-Billings_62-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Billings-62"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>62<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and more recent work has similarly revealed "small differences between women's and men's coping strategies when studying individuals in similar situations."<sup id="cite_ref-63" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-63"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In general, such differences as exist indicate that women tend to employ emotion-focused coping and the "<a href="Tend-and-befriend" class="mw-redirect" title="Tend-and-befriend">tend-and-befriend</a>" response to stress, whereas men tend to use problem-focused coping and the "<a href="Fight-or-flight" class="mw-redirect" title="Fight-or-flight">fight-or-flight</a>" response, perhaps because societal standards encourage men to be more individualistic, while women are often expected to be <a href="Interpersonal" class="mw-redirect" title="Interpersonal">interpersonal</a>.

<p>Hormones also play a part in stress management. <a href="Cortisol" title="Cortisol">Cortisol</a>, a stress hormone, was found to be elevated in males during stressful situations. In females, however, cortisol levels were decreased in stressful situations, and instead, an increase in <a href="Limbic" class="mw-redirect" title="Limbic">limbic</a> activity was discovered. Many researchers believe that these results underlie the reasons why men administer a <a href="Fight-or-flight" class="mw-redirect" title="Fight-or-flight">fight-or-flight</a> reaction to stress; whereas, females have a <a href="Tend-and-befriend" class="mw-redirect" title="Tend-and-befriend">tend-and-befriend</a> reaction.<sup id="cite_ref-Wang_65-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Wang-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The "fight-or-flight" response activates the <a href="Sympathetic_nervous_system" title="Sympathetic nervous system">sympathetic nervous system</a> in the form of increased focus levels, adrenaline, and epinephrine. Conversely, the "tend-and-befriend" reaction refers to the tendency of women to protect their offspring and relatives. Although these two reactions support a genetic basis to differences in behavior, one should not assume that in general females cannot implement "fight-or-flight" behavior or that males cannot implement "tend-and-befriend" behavior. Additionally, this study implied differing health impacts for each gender as a result of the contrasting stress-processes.
