Czyżniejewska and G. Kopinke; the Self-Efficacy Scale by Z. Juczyński; and JSR-Questionnaire by Z. Juczyński and N. Ogińska-Bulik. The results show that children with higher frequency of school anxiety more often use emotional strategy to cope with stress. The moderating effect of the general self-efficacy on the relationship between school anxiety and coping strategies is not significant.
