Abstract
This study investigates coping strategies and their intricate relationship with covariates, focusing on their nuanced impact of pattern or level effects on crucial psychological variables, including resilience, well-being, life satisfaction, and depression. Existing literature has primarily examined the relationship between coping styles and such variables through individual linear analyses, which may dissimulate configural effects. To address this gap, the research employs criterion profile analysis (CPA; Davison & Davenport, 2002) on four preexisting datasets, (179 ≤ n ≤ 2078). CPA decomposes OLS regression into level effects and pattern effects, permitting the identification of patterns of predictors strongly associated with specific criteria. The findings underscore the significance of considering not only the level but also the patterns of coping strategies when predicting various psychological outcomes, providing valuable insights for enhancing our understanding of mental health promotion.
