Description
Summary:The purpose of the current study is to demonstrate a significant suppressor effect among coping strategies on resilience. Two different samples were used to replicate the suppressor effect. Participants in the first example were 391 adolescents (middle school students) in Korea, and participants in the second example were 282 young adults (university students) in Korea. Both samples completed self-report measures of coping strategies and resilience. To verify the significance of the suppressor effect, structural equation modeling and bootstrapping procedures were used. The results showed that the suppressor effect was replicable in both samples. Also, the results of both examples revealed significant suppressor effects, with passive coping increasing the relationship between active coping and resilience. This study offers recommendations for understanding relationships among coping strategies within the context of suppressor effects.
