Abstract

This thesis assesses the benefits of expressive writing about anticipated challenges, and problems rather than past tribulations. It is in essense affect labeling about worries, concerns, and fears regarding foreseen challenges rather than those previously experienced. Therefore, it affords one a proactive rather than a reactive method for dealing with the trials of life.
