Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prevention/promotion programs in the ecological framework of coping may seek to alter both proximal stressors (e.g. providing social support, reducing exposure to violence) and resources for coping (e.g. increasing access to health care, enhancing social skills) in order to prevent or reduce the impact of negative life events. While such programs may indirectly contribute to improved psychological functioning, their primary focus is on modifying the person-environment relationship to promote adaptive coping.
