Clinical Trial Summary
Resilience is defined as generating coping strategies for the problems and situations that
individuals face throughout their lives and developing these strategies in each new
situation. While some individuals become helpless in the face of difficulties and give up the
struggle, other individuals recover quickly in the face of difficulties and use coping
methods well. Accordingly, these individuals have higher levels of crisis management and
coping with stress.
Description:
Psychological resilience is defined as the process of adaptation, the power of recovery or
the ability to successfully overcome change/disasters against significant sources of stress
such as a trauma, a threat, a tragedy or family and relational distress, serious health
problems, workplace and financial problems. At the same time, psychological resilience, as a
personality trait, is also used to mean the power to recover quickly, the power to overcome
difficulties, resilience, flexibility and robustness. Individuals who are successful in
repairing the psychological destruction that occurs as a result of negative emotional states
are considered to be strong individuals in terms of psychological resilience.
Identification of protective factors Psychological resilience is a dynamic process resulting
from the interaction of risk factors and protective factors. In the literature, the most
frequently emphasized characteristics when defining psychological resilience are risk
factors, protective factors that mitigate the impact of negative events and adaptation to
risk factors.
Personal risk factors include anxious temperament, health problems, lack of self-confidence,
inability to use effective coping mechanisms, inability to express oneself effectively,
aggressive personality, pessimistic perspective.
Familial risk factors include lack of healthy family relationships, domestic violence, loss
of parents, neglect and abuse in the family, and negative relationships.
Environmental risk factors include low socio-economic level, lack of positive role models,
unemployment and migration.
Protective factors are situations that increase the individual's adaptation to all risk
factors and improve the individual's competencies. In other words, they are factors that
reduce or eliminate the negative effects of risk factors. In research, risk factors and
protective factors are analyzed in three stages: individual, familial and environmental It is
stated that individuals with high levels of psychological resilience have a higher level of
control over their behaviors compared to other individuals, believe that they can achieve
higher success as a result of their efforts, have better social competence and
responsibilities, and are more successful in solving problems. When we look at other
characteristics of individuals with high psychological resilience, it is stated that they
have the power and resilience to influence the people around them and to take advantage of
upsetting events and to achieve results. It has also been found that individuals with high
levels of resilience have high levels of self-confidence and less anxiety. These individuals
like to struggle and do not like to give up. Individuals with low levels of psychological
resilience have poor self-control capacity, withdraw from the environment, do not participate
in social life and show resistance to change. Individuals with good resilience prefer to
struggle by questioning their lives.
