Working a second job to pay off credit cards is an example of ________.

A) problem-focused coping
B) emotion-focused coping
C) distraction
D) reappraisal

Working a second job to pay off credit cards is an example of problem-focused coping because it is a practical solution aimed at directly reducing the stressor (credit card debt). Emotion-focused coping, on the other hand, involves managing emotions related to the stressor rather than addressing the stressor itself. Distraction involves engaging in activities to take one's mind off the stressor, and reappraisal involves changing one's interpretation or perception of the stressor.
