Individual, intergenerational, and contextual factors associated with coping strategies, coping variability, and perceived coping efficacy among young adults.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeStress-related coping is an important mechanism of mental health functioning. However, the distribution of coping processes across various factors (e.g., individual like sex, contextual like perceived social status) remain under-explored. This study identified individual, intergenerational, and contextual factors associated with coping strategies, variability in their use (as a proxy for using strategies flexibly across contexts), and perceived coping efficacy to handle stressors among young adults.
methodsParticipants from the Nicotine Dependence in Teens study (NDIT; N = 827) completed the validated Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations scale in 2011-12 (age ~ 24). Data on many factors, including race/ethnicity, intergenerational education patterns, and perceived social status, were collected from 1999-2000 (at NDIT inception; age 12-13) to 2011-12. Linear and multinominal regressions modeled the associations between individual, intergenerational, and contextual factors and coping strategies, variability, and efficacy, separately.
resultsWomen versus men reported more frequent use of emotion-, distraction-, and social diversion-oriented strategies and higher variability levels (e.g., B
conclusionFindings document the distribution of coping processes across individual, intergenerational, and contextual factors among young adults, which may more broadly increase understanding of social disparities in mental health.
