Coping, emotion regulation, and psychopathology in childhood and adolescence: A meta-analysis and narrative review.
Open accessAbstract
In this meta-analytic and narrative review, we examine several overarching issues related to the study of coping, emotion regulation, and internalizing and externalizing symptoms of psychopathology in childhood and adolescence, including the conceptualization and measurement of these constructs. We report a quantitative meta-analysis of 212 studies (N = 80,850 participants) that measured the associations between coping and emotion regulation with symptoms of internalizing and externalizing psychopathology. Within the meta-analysis we address the association of broad domains of coping and emotion regulation (e.g., total coping, emotion regulation), intermediate factors of coping and emotion regulation (e.g., primary control coping, secondary control coping), and specific coping and emotion regulation strategies (e.g., emotional expression, cognitive reappraisal) with internalizing and externalizing symptoms. For cross-sectional studies, which made up the majority of studies included, we examine 3 potential moderators: age, measure quality, and single versus multiple informants. Finally, we separately consider findings from longitudinal studies as these provide stronger tests of the effects. After accounting for publication bias, findings indicate that the broad domain of emotion regulation and adaptive coping and the factors of primary control coping and secondary control coping are related to lower levels of symptoms of psychopathology. Further, the domain of maladaptive coping, the factor of disengagement coping, and the strategies of emotional suppression, avoidance, and denial are related to higher levels of symptoms of psychopathology. Finally, we offer a critique of the current state of the field and outline an agenda for future research. (PsycINFO Database Record

Maladaptive strategy use is associated with lower self-efficacy and higher depression and anxiety symptoms.
“Significant links are noted between maladaptive strategy use, reduced self-efficacy and increased depression and anxiety symptoms (Carthy et al., 2010; Compas et al., 2017; Ehring et al., 2010).”
From Outcomes From an Online Pilot Mindfulness Based Intervention with Adolescents: A Comparison by Categories of Risk. (2023) · cites this paper as Compas et al., 2017
The Results (Cross-Sectional Effect Sizes; page unavailable) report that maladaptive coping was significantly associated with higher internalizing symptoms. The Previous Reviews section also reports positive associations between strategies considered maladaptive and depression and anxiety symptoms. Neither passage establishes a link between maladaptive strategy use and reduced self-efficacy. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredPeople who use a greater variety of adaptive coping strategies report less anxiety and depression and greater psychological functioning and self-efficacy.
“Preliminary evidence suggests those who employ a greater variety of adaptive coping strategies report reduced anxiety and depression, and increased psychological functioning and self-efficacy (Compas et al., 2017; Suhr et al., 2017).”
From Outcomes From an Online Pilot Mindfulness Based Intervention with Adolescents: A Comparison by Categories of Risk. (2023) · cites this paper as Compas et al., 2017
The Discussion’s Meta-analytic Findings section says secondary control coping, which combines several strategies, was associated with fewer symptoms; its Comparison with Previous Reviews section also reports links between adaptive strategies and lower anxiety and depression. But the paper does not establish that using a greater *variety* of strategies predicts those outcomes, and the passages do not support the claimed increase in self-efficacy. Its own meta-analysis concerns children and adolescents, not people generally. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn a meta-analysis of 212 studies (80,850 participants), avoidant coping strategies such as disengagement, emotional suppression, and denial were associated with concurrent and subsequent psychopathology.
“As confirmed in a recent meta-analysis of 212 studies (80,850 participants), avoidant coping strategies such as disengagement, emotional suppression, and denial were associated with concurrent and subsequent psychopathology (Compas et al. 2017).”

The Results report 212 studies and 80,850 participants, and the cross-sectional results link disengagement coping, emotional suppression, and denial to higher symptoms. But the Longitudinal Effect Sizes results and Discussion report longitudinal associations for disengagement coping and avoidance, not for emotional suppression or denial; only 17 studies contributed longitudinal data. The claim overextends the longitudinal finding to all three named examples (page numbers unavailable in our copy). (LLM, conf=0.91)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
