We examined the role of relational interdependent self-construal in the context of group-based tasks. We made use of qualitative and quantitative data-gathering and analyses. The first segment of the research is for the identification of coping approaches that was used in the development of a coping approaches questionnaire for the subsequent parts of the study. The second part examined the relationship between relational self-construal and coping approaches. Findings suggest that students used varying coping approaches when confronted with different emotional expressions of the friends they work with. In addition, no statistically significant relation between relational self-construal and coping approaches was observed in the study.
