ABSTRACT

The current study examined the relationship between grit and coping and overcoming using autoregressive cross-lagged analyses. Over a thousand adolescents from across the united states rated themselves on grit and coping and overcoming at three different time points (fall of 8th grade, spring and fall of 9th grade). The autoregressive cross-lagged model confirmed that the relation between grit and coping and overcoming was relatively stable over time. Grit predicted future coping and overcoming, but not the other way around. That is, compared to their less gritty peers, grittier students were more likely to cope and overcome hardship in the future, but the coping and overcoming experiences did not increase or decrease students’ grit. These results provide an additional evidence that grit supports students’adjustment.
