چکیده
Coping theories have been divided into two different parameters: 1. Trait-Oriented Theories versus State-Oriented Theories 2.

On the other hand, the microanalytic approach studies a wide variety of specific and concrete coping strategies, while the macroanalytic approach concentrates on fundamental and abstract coping methodologies.
