1. Choose one situation below  and respond with how the two people outlined below would deal with the same type of stressful situation:

a. How a person with resilient, protective factors would respond;

b. How someone without those protective factors would respond.

2. Write an APA-style response paper of 300 – 500 words.

3. For each person , incorporate the following in your writing:

a. Types of stress they are likely to experience/might have previously experienced because of their culture, background, socioeconomic situation, or otherwise;

b. Resilience and protective factors that could likely be present;

c. Coping skills they might already have
