b. whether one attempts to reduce the emotions associated with the stressor or solve the problem directly.
c. the ability to perceive the stressor.
d. whether the stress is familiar or unfamiliar.

Explanation:

Emotion-focused coping is based on reducing the effect of negative emotions in the person. This may be done in a positive manner (writing a journal) or negative (substance abuse).

Problem-solving coping is based on identifying the stressor and attempting to remove it. This method, however, is not useful for situations beyond our control (e.g. death of a loved one).
