The aim of this study is demonstrate the influence of personality traits over coping strategies in adolescents. In this way, a study with 102 pupils from a municipal school in Goiânia (GO) aged from 11 to 15 years old was carried out. Two different instruments were used to do the study, Coping Response Inventory (Moos, 1993) and the Bateria Fatorial de Personalidade (Nunes et al., preliminary version).
