To determine strategies used by different personalities to cope with stress, a sample of 635 university students across different levels and major areas of study was selected through categorical random sampling. Two measures were used to collect data: one measuring personality type and the other ways of coping with stress. Results show that type A personalities use more problem-based strategies in coping with stress than type B personalities. As stress level increases, the likelihood of a type A personality using an affect-based strategy increases, where as in type B personality is the other way around. The same is true with the avoidance-based strategies in the case of type A, but not with the other. The most frequently used strategies seem to be in the affect-based category.
