Coping Self-Efficacy Scale (CSE)
The Coping Self-Efficacy Scale (CSE) is a self-report tool measuring a person's confidence in their ability to use effective coping strategies in difficult or stressful situations. It assesses perceived self-efficacy in different coping domains (enlisting social support, managing emotions, problem solving) and can be used for monitoring in psychotherapy or during clinical assessments.
