The current study explored coping and the relationship between coping, stressors, seriousness of delinquency, and internalizing and externalizing psychopathology in a sample of 93 (69 male, 24 female, M age=14.3 SD=1.4) court-involved adolescents.

Adolescent analyses provided support for a model of multiple evaluative domains of RED and showed strong …
