  • Title: Family stressor events, family coping, and adolescent adaptation in farm and ranch families.
    Author: Plunkett SW, Henry CS, Knaub PK.
    Journal: Adolescence; 1999; 34(133):147-68. PubMed ID: 10234374.
    Abstract:
    Data from 77 adolescents in farm and ranch families were used to examine the relationship of demographic variables, family stressor events, and family coping strategies to adolescent adaptation. Results indicated that adolescent age and family transitions were positively related to individual stress. Males reported less family stress than did females. Seeking spiritual support was negatively related to family stress, while the perceived impact of the farm crisis was positively related to family stress. Family support was positively related, and family substance use issues were negatively related, to adolescent satisfaction with family life. The implications of these findings are discussed.
