Ashley and her brother tim react to stressful family situations entirely differently. ashley is easily frustrated and tends to look at the negative side when things go wrong, while tim has always been a person who enjoys challenges and feels capable of responding effectively no matter what the situation. tim is demonstrating hardiness. coping style. emotion-focused coping. defensive coping.

The fact that Tim has always been a person who enjoys challenges and feels capable of responding effectively no matter what the situation means that Tim is demonstrating hardiness. The term hardiness is used in psychology to denote the ability to survive adverse growing conditions (in these case the conditions are stressful family situations).
