Abstract :

Due  to  conflict  variations  that  occur  to  misplaced  college  students,  this  study  was  keen  to  disseminate conflict variations that occur to misplaced college students and their coping strategies to handle it. The  misplaced  college  student  which  is  chosen  in  this  research  whose  decided  to  stay  and  finish college. Through this context, the clearer dynamics of coping strategy was expected.

The results of data analysis are 1) misplaced college students go through conflicts but they are  varied  in  accordance  to  each  context;  generally  the  conflicts  that  occur  are  psychological, academic and relational;  2) The uniqueness of each research  subject  are: a) misplaced students  with independent  characteristic  tend  to  create  problem-focused  coping;  b)  Inconsistent  support  system  to misplaced  college  student  causes  a  more  vulnerable  psychological  condition;  c)  Consistent  and strong  supporting  system  minimizes  the  quality  of  conflict  within misplaced  college  student;  3)  A coping  strategy  occurs  to  overcome  psychological,  academic  and  relational  conflict;  4)  Misplaced college students who have a competency to control the environment tend to use problem-focused coping.  In  the  other  hand,  misplaced  college  students  who do  not  have  a  good  competency  to  handle their environment tend to use emotional-focused coping; 5) The findings of this research are: a) The objective of the coping is to reach a maturation, and as a way to increase self resilience in order to face  a  bigger conflict in  the  future;  b)  The  creation  of  problem-focused  coping  is  preceded  by the dynamics  of  thinking  process  which  leads  to  an  insight  serves  as  a  base  for  the  coping  strategy.
