"This manual will support early childhood educators in the delivery of the COPE Resilience program, an evidence-based program designed to teach empathy, resilience and prosocial skills to children. Grounded in research and theories of learning and development, the program is built on a series of activities that help children develop their capacity for emotional understanding, caring for others, open communication, polite and respectful behaviours and empathic sharing. Each activity includes directions for children as well as guidelines for educators and is designed to be used flexibly in various early learning contexts, enabling educators to select activities that best suit their setting"--

Adolescence is a time when coping is very important, when many new experiences and responsabilities are thrust upon individuals. Young people need to cope in a variety of settings, including school, home, peer groups and the workplace, and with a range of life problems such as divorce and examinations. Frydenberg provides a clear account of current research and thinking on coping, illustrated by the voices of young people throughout the book. Adolescent Coping focuses on how young people manage a range of life problems, and on the coping styles of particular groups, such as the gifted and those with illness. The author addresses the relationships between coping and age, gender and ethnicity, and between family functioning and coping. She also considers the measurements of coping, how we learn to cope, and such areas as social support and depression.

Young people need to cope in a variety of settings, including school, home, peer groups and the workplace, and with a range of life problems such as examinations and parental divorce. This thoroughly revised and updated new edition of Adolescent Coping presents the latest research and applications in the field of coping. It highlights the ways in which coping can be measured and, in particular, details a widely used adolescent coping instrument. Topics include the different ways in which girls and boys cope, coping in the family, how culture and context determine how young people cope, decisional coping, problem solving and social coping, with a particular emphasis on practice. Each topic is considered in light of past and recent research findings and each chapter includes quotations from young people. While topics such as depression, eating disorders, self-harm and grief and loss are addressed, there is a substantial focus on the positive aspects of coping, including an emphasis on resilience and the achievement of happiness. In addition to the wide-ranging research findings that are reported, many of the chapters consider implications and applications of the relevant findings with suggestions for the development of coping skills and coping skills training.
