Adolescence : From Crisis to Coping: a Thirteen Nation Study, Hardcover by Gibson-Cline, Janice (EDT), ISBN 1041311648, ISBN-13 9781041311645, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Originally published in 1996, Adolescence: From Crisis to Coping presented a unique collaborative study of perceived problems and coping strategies of young people from a variety of socio-economic and national backgrounds. It describes the 'culture-fair’ research model and explains results in terms of national background, gender and socio-economic, racial and minority status. Rather than portraying adolescence as a stage of crisis, the study describes this age group as coping with multiple external crises. While adolescents are frequently similar in the issues that concern them, it is significant that their gender and socio-economic backgrounds are often better predictors of their problems and coping strategies than their national backgrounds. The thirteen nations in which the study was carried out are: Australia, Brazil, China, Greece, India, Israel, Kuwait, Netherlands, Philippines, Russia, Turkey, USA, Venezuela.
