This study aimed to explore the relationship between coping strategies and posttraumatic symptomology in emergency service workers in the Western Cape. Three fundamental coping strategies were assessed: seeking social support, problem-solving, and avoidance. I hypothesised that seeking social support and problem-solving would be associated with decreased levels of psychiatric symptoms, while avoidance would be associated with increased levels of psychiatric symptoms. 2014-12-31T19:56:27Z 2014-12-31T19:56:27Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10774 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
