GARABITO, Sandra; GARCIA, Felipe E.; NEIRA, Michelle y PUENTES, Eduardo. Couple breakup in young adults and mental health: coping strategies in the face of stress at the end of a relationship. Psychol. av. discip. [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.1, pp.47-59. Epub 26-Ene-2021. ISSN 1900-2386. https://doi.org/10.21500/19002386.4560.
The aim of this study has been to analyze the coping strategies used by young adults after a breakup and their relationship with depressive symptoms and satisfaction with life. For this, 220 people were surveyed, 66.8% women, aged between 18 and 40 years. The Brief-COPE coping strategies scale, SWLS Satisfaction with Life Scale, CES-D Depression Scale of Center for Epidemiological Studies, ERQ Emotional Regulation Questionnaire, RRS Rumination Response Scale, and a sociodemographic questionnaire were applied. It was observed that women have more depressive symptoms than men. In addition, the time elapsed since the rupture, acceptance, suppression, brooding and substance use, predict depressive symptoms and, on the other hand, brooding, acceptance and the search for social support, predict satisfaction with life. In this way, it is possible to focus on the lines of action to promote more adaptive responses and modify less adaptive responses in people affected by a rupture.
