	Coping skill - ArticleWorld (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		The type of skill depends on the kind of problem, but it has been found that those who have high self esteem and a good support system to rely on often cope much better with stressful situations and so are healthier both physically and emotionally.
		Building a support network is probably one of the most important coping skills as having people around you that you can trust has been shown to reduce depression and anxiety.
		Furthermore, relaxation is a major coping skill but knowing how to relax is not something that comes naturally to many people; it is, however, a skill that can be learned.

		These investigators speculated that if parents received training in more effective coping skills they might be able to relieve their own emotional distress and impact favorably on the adolescent’s behavior.
		At each time period, parents were measured on their coping skills as assessed on the PSI, their coping in recent encounters with the teen, their emotional distress, their communication with the adolescent, and the number of days the adolescent used alcohol, marijuana, and other illicit drugs over the previous 50 days.
		Second, the skill training intervention was not compared to an alternate intervention, so it is unknown whether the findings were due to program content, or to less relevant factors (e.g., attention from a therapist).
