abstract="Young adults face different stressors in their transition to college. Negative emotions such as stress can emerge from the demands they face. This study aimed at  gaining an improved understanding of the role that gender and age play in the  well-being of young adults. Coping strategies, resilience, self-regulation, and  positivity were selected as indicators of well-being. Descriptive and inferential  analysis have been conducted. <br><br>RESULTS show that well-being varies significantly with  age and gender. Gender was predominantly involved in the acquisition of the  well-being outcomes, highly predicting problem-focused coping strategies. No  interaction effects were found between gender and age. An improved understanding of  the developmental factors involved in well-being outcomes will enlighten future  interventions aimed at improving young people's resources to face adversity.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
