مستخلص: This study aimed to determine the effects of two types of coping strategies on wellbeing in a sample of 405 young people using structural equation modeling. A survey research design was employed. Two constructs were measured: coping strategies and well-being. Goodness of fit indices was analyzed to select, the best structural equation model of coping as a potential predictor of well-being, as measured by Ryff's well-being scales. Problem-focused coping positively predicted a significant portion of variance in well-being, while emotion-focused coping negatively predicted well-being. Religion as a coping strategy did not end up in the final model. The results' impact within the literature on youth well-being is discussed. It was concluded that young people do not typically use religion or magical thinking as coping strategies, and the use of negative auto-focused coping was associated with lower problem-focused coping.
