This study examined to what extent individuals differing in<br />their positive psychological resources (optimism, hope, self-efficacy and resilience) implement different strategies<br />to cope with stress in terms of change, acceptance, or withdrawal from a source of stress in an organizational<br />setting.<br />Method: A questionnaire was filled out by 554 employees from different organizations representing a wide range<br />of jobs and positions.<br />Results: Structural Equation Modeling (SEM; c2(7) = 27:64, p < :01, GFI = :99, NFI = :91, CFI = :93,<br />RMSEA = :07)<br />Conclusion: the results indicated that psychological resources (optimism, hope, self-efficacy and resilience) were<br />positively related to coping by change and by acceptance and negatively related to withdrawal. The theoretical<br />implications are discussed.</p>}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Psychological Research}, author={Rabenu, Edna and Yaniv, Eyal}, year={2017}, month={Aug.}, pages={8–14} }
