Özet:

The purpose of this study conducted based on relational screening model is to study the personality traits of the Giresun University Psychological Counseling and Guidance students and the stress management strategies they use. As data collection tools of this study, we have used the Personal Information Form developed by the researchers, the Stress Management Attitudes Inventory developed by Özbay and Şahin (1997) and the Character Based Personality Test developed by Bacanlı et. al (2009). For statistical analysis, we have employed frequency distribution, t test for independent groups, Anova and Correlation analyses. Findings of the study suggest that the students differ from each other in terms of their personality traits and stress management skills in some dimensions based on gender, class level and the perceived parental attitudes and that there is a relationship between some of the personality traits of the psychological counseling and guidance students and the manner in which they cope with stress. The findings have been interpreted within the framework of the literature.
