Helen has several major projects that will all be due in two weeks. in order to deal with this situation, she makes out a plan of when to work on each project and schedules in breaks, during which she plans to walk for exercise and to meditate. she also plans to play some of her favorite music cds as she works on the projects in order to lift her "spirits." helen is utilizing a combination of

a. primary and secondary coping.
b. problem-focused and emotion-focused coping.
c. defense mechanisms and vacillation.
d. directive and indirective coping.

The correct answer is:

b. problem-focused and emotion-focused coping.

Explanation:

In psychology, the problem focused coping is a mechanism used by individuals in order to focus the attention in solving the problem that is causing stress. On the other hand, emotion focused coping has to do the idea of managing or handling the emotions around the problematic situation instead of trying to change the problem or its cause.

In Helen specific case, what she is doing is a combination of the two coping systems; since she programs her time in order to work in her projects and she is also allocating time to deal with the stress and the emotions with activities that she can enjoy more.
