Abstract
Our results confirm partially Callahan and Chabrol's conclusions in favour of existing relationships between adaptive coping strategies and mature defenses, as well as between maladaptive coping strategies and immature defenses. They demonstrate three positive relationships : 1) a relation between Problem solving resolution coping and two mature defenses (Sublimation, Anticipation) ; 2) a relation between Evasion coping and nevrotic and immature defenses ; 3) a relation between Escaping coping and immature defenses. The correspondences between defense mechanisms and coping strategies, such as proposed by Plutchik psycho-evolutionist emotional model are partly validated. Some links were indeed validated in this research, between : a) Defense Undoing and Escaping or Evasion coping ; b) Defense Fantasy and Responzabilization coping, c) Defense Sublimation and Problem solving resolution coping ; d) Defense Sublimation and Responsabilization coping or Problem solving resolution coping ; e) Défense Annulation and Responzabilisation coping.
