This study investigated (1) the direct influence of coping style on life
satisfaction; (2) the indirect influences of coping style on life satisfaction, being
mediated by depression, anxiety, and stress; and (3) gender differences in coping
style, life satisfaction, depression, anxiety, and stress on a sample of 510 Vietnamese
undergraduates of psychology in Ho Chi Minh city. Vietnamese-translated versions
of the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS), Depression, Anxiety, and
Stress Scale (DASS), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) and a researcherconstructed demographic questionnaire were employed for data collection.
Reliability test, the t-test, and multiple regression analysis were used in data analysis.
Results revealed that problem-focused coping and avoidance-focused coping were
positively related to life satisfaction while emotion-focused coping was found to be
negatively correlated with life satisfaction. Furthermore, problem-focused coping
was found to be negatively correlated with depression, anxiety, and stress, whereas
emotion-focused coping was found to be positively correlated with the three emotive
variables. Avoidance-focused coping was negatively correlated with depression. In
terms of testing indirect relationship hypothesis, the regression analysis showed that
there was an indirect influence of emotion-focused coping and voidance-focused
coping on Vietnamese psychology undergraduate students’ life satisfaction, being
mediated by their reported level of depression. Additionally, no significant gender
differences were found in problem-focused coping, depression, anxiety, stress, and
life satisfaction. In contrast, there were significant gender differences in emotionfocused coping and avoidance-focused coping such that Vietnamese female students
of psychology tended to employ emotion-focused coping and avoidance-focused
coping more than their male counterparts.
