The relationship between coping and emotion: implications for theory and research

S Folkman et al. Soc Sci Med. 1988.

Abstract

Historically, coping has been viewed as a response to emotion. Our purpose here is to evaluate this idea and offer a broader view based on cognitive and relational principles concerning the emotion process. We will explore the ways emotion and coping influence each other in what must ultimately be seen as a dynamic, mutually reciprocal relationship.
