Muslims, like everyone else in the United States, deal with many sources of stress on a daily basis. However, since September 11 and the Paris attacks, Muslims have experienced additional stressors. Muslim students, especially females, experience discrimination in the school setting. Muslims in the United States have high rates of PTSD, anxiety, and depression. The protective factors that could decrease stress in the second-generation Muslim population are critical thinking, coping methods, and resilience. Critical thinking involves the following: analyzing the demands of a situation, generating various solutions, choosing a solution, and monitoring the effectiveness of the solution chosen. The solutions generated could include coping methods that can be problem-focused or emotion-focused. Resilience is another solution that could be generated, and it involves a positive self-image and a sense of self-efficacy within one's limits. It was hypothesized that for Muslims in the USA critical thinking, coping, and resilience would result in a negative association with stress. Participants were collected through social media and Amazon Mechanical Turk. Through correlational analysis, the relationship between these variables were analyzed. Critical thinking and resilience did have a negative association with stress; specifically insight and confident self-reliance were predictors of decreased stress while motivational self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility were predictors of increased stress.
