abstract="The continued development of the Urban Hassles Index (UHI) as a tool for understanding the exposure of urban adolescents to chronic stressors is expanded to include the severity of each stressor. Coping strategies--positive or negative--in response to stressors is examined. The UHI continues to reflect strong psychometric properties. Exposure to stress is not differentiated by gender; however, findings reflect different coping strategies utilized by gender. Suggestions for improving the UHI along with the importance of continued examination of the chronic stressors and their impact on adolescent developmental milestones are presented.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
