To collect the information, the Modified Coping Strategy Scale proposed by Londoño, Henao, Puerta, Posada, Arango and Aguirre in 2006 was used. This test is made up of 69 items grouped into twelve factors (factor 1: Solution of the problem, factor 2: Search for social support, factor 3: Waiting, factor 4: Religion, factor 5: Emotional avoidance, factor 6: Search for professional support, factor 7: Aggressive Reaction, factor 8: Cognitive avoidance, factor 9: Positive reevaluation, factor 10: Expression of coping difficulties, factor 11 Negation and factor 12 Autonomy) divided into two coping styles: the style aimed at solving the problem and the style directed at emotions.

Likewise, it was found that the most used coping strategies were found to be directed towards emotion.
