Abstract

The study investigates coping strategies in women affiliated with the Institute of Criminalistics, Criminology, and Psychosocial and Family Intervention, focusing on various marital statuses. Using a descriptive, cross-sectional approach with quantitative design, the research employs the Coping Response Inventory for Adults (CRI-A) to collect data from 26 women aged 18 to 65. Statistical software SPSS is utilized for data analysis. Notable findings include distinct coping strategies among different marital groups: single women favor cognitive avoidance, married women lean towards positive reappraisal, divorced women employ cognitive avoidance, widows adopt acceptance and resignation, and separated women opt for seeking alternative rewards. The study underscores the influence of marital status on coping mechanisms and concludes that each marital status necessitates distinct coping strategies for women.
