Abstract In a multiple-country survey on perceived stress among entrepreneurs, Taiwan entrepreneurs were ranked top of the list. Over 60% of the Taiwan participants reported that they have experienced an increased amount of stress over the past year. Entrepreneurs from Hong Kong came second. Although they are on top of the stress rankings, this does not necessarily mean that the Chinese are in danger of psychological problems. This article seeks to explore the unique Chinese ways of coping with stressors. It points out that an extensive review of the literature has revealed that the Chinese are characterized by a greater tendency to use avoidant or emotion-focused coping, greater flexibility in strategy deployment across stressful situations, and a propensity to seek and utilize less social support. This article discusses each of these coping characteristics in the light of traditional cultural beliefs and contemporary cultural theories of psychology.

This study aims to use a grounded theory approach to explore the relationship among coping strategies, psychological resilience, and anxiety for college students during the COVID-19. The investigators conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews with eight college students in Wuhan city who reported negative emotions, such as tension, anxiety, and depression during the COVID-19 outbreak. MAXQDA 2020 was used to store, transcribe, code, and analyze the data. An open coding process generalized thirty- eight concepts and nine categories such as "self-regulation," "threat to Survival," and "positive emotions." Three core themes have emerged through axial and selective coding, and a theoretical framework was constructed. The theory that emerged from participants' experiences demonstrates that a) most college students chose positive coping strategies to relieve their anxiety, b) different causes of anxiety may lead to different types of coping strategies, and c) college students' psychological resilience is related to positive coping strategies during the COVID-19 epidemic.

Purpose: This study aims to explore which coping strategies medical students use more often, and how coping styles account for medical students' subjective well-being.Methods: Subjects included 249 medical students from undergraduate and Graduate Entry Programme of a medical school in Seoul, Korea.Coping style was measured using the Ways of Coping Checklist.Subjective well-being was measured with Positive / Negative Affect Scale and Satisfaction with Life Scale.Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to compare four coping strategies, and stepwise multiple regression was used to analyze the accountability of each of the coping strategy for subjective well-being.Results: Medical students used avoidance and problem-focused coping strategy more often than they used emotion-focused coping strategy and seeking social support.Graduate Entry Programme students used avoidance less often and seeking social support more often than undergraduate students.Among subscales of subjective well-being, positive affect can be accounted for by problem-focused coping and seeking social support, and negative affect can be accounted for by problem-focused coping and avoidance.Life satisfaction can be accounted for by problem-focused coping as well. Conclusion:The results of this study showed that medical students had high adaptability as well as strong anxiety toward stressful situations in medical school.Moreover, three among the four coping strategies accounted for medical students' subjective well-being.These findings should be considered as a baseline for future research looking into additional variables affecting medical students' well-being.
