Abstract

Resilience is most commonly characterized as a dynamic process encompassing good or positive outcome in an individual despite experiences of serious or significant adversity or trauma (Luthar, Cicchetti, & Becker, 2000). Resilience as a theoretical concept implies that two specific constructs be present. First, the presence of adversity or risk associated with life circumstances known to interfere with adjustment (Luthar & Cicchetti, 2000; Masten, 2001). Common indicators of risk include low socioeconomic status (SES), chronic exposure to violence or aggression, and traumatic life events such as a divorce (Luthar & Cicchetti, 2000). The second construct, the achievement of positive adaptation despite the presence of adversity, is typically measured via observable behaviors such as social competence, academic success, and secure attachment with caregivers as well as an absence of psychopathology (Luthar & Cicchetti, 2000). Individuals are considered to be resilient when they face significant adversity to development yet display positive outcomes (Masten & Coatsworth, 1998; Olsson, Bond, Burns, Vella-Brodrick, & Sawyer, 2003).
