| Zusammenfassung: | How people cope with the stress of poverty and engage with its causes and potential solutions impacts their capacity to survive, manage and work to improve their situation. Problem-focused coping involves a person's engagement to make plans, mobilize resources and take action. This cross-sectional study explores the relationship of problem-focused coping with religious problem-solving styles (RPSS) and self-efficacy of participants in a faith-based poverty alleviation programme (n = 43). Results indicated that Self-directing RPSS was negatively correlated with problem-focused coping (−.34, p < .05). Collaborative RPSS was positively correlated with problem-focused coping (.40, p < .01) as was Self-efficacy RPSS (.33, p <.05). Between the independent variables, there was a positive correlation between self-efficacy and Collaborative RPSS (.32, p < .05). These results suggest participants who relied on God in a collaborative way were more likely to utilize problem-focused coping than those who did not. |
