We examined individual differences in stress and coping for a sample of 56 divorced white women aged 29 through 46. Using telephone interview, diary, and home visit, data were collected on major and minor stressors, potential mediators, and adjustment outcomes. We found that with high levels of stress, dispositional and social support resources were strongly associated with good adjustment outcome. In the face of relatively low levels of stress, sociodemographic and structural mediators were associated with good adjustment outcome. By learning more about these mediating factors, especially those which are modifiable, we can eventually identify the kinds of assistance that could benefit this at-risk population
