Our featured A Level Psychology resource this week is the COPE Inventory which measures the extent to which a person uses emotion-focused coping styles, such as seeking emotional social support, denial and venting of emotions and problem focused styles, such as seeking instrumental social support, planning and active coping.

The COPE Inventory can be found here

note: This section of the site was previously called "Resource of the Week". I have renamed it because I do not always have time to update it weekly.
