Abstract
This research aimed to examine the correlation between emotional maturity, problem-focused coping, and emotion-focused coping in depression among first year college students. It was hypothesized that emotional maturity, problem-focused coping, and emotion-focused coping correlate with the tendency of depression among first year college students. Participants were 214 college students in Yogyakarta (male=66; female=148). Multiple regression analysis showed that emotional maturity and emotion-focused coping contribute significantly to first year college students depression with 19% contribution (R² = 0,19; p < 0,05). Emotional maturity negatively correlated with depression tendency (t = -6,026; p < 0,05), while emotion-focused coping positively correlated with first year college students depression tendency (t = 2,265; p < 0,05). Result showed that problem-focused coping has no significant relationship with depression tendency (t = -0,557; p > 0,05).
