“…The second wave, which was dominant especially during the nineties of the 20 th century contributed to an understanding of resilience as a more dynamic process resulting from the influence of other individuals and the systems in which each person is embedded (Benard, 1999;Luthar, 1999;Masten, 1999). Resilience was then positively related to proximal factors, such as family support, positive appraisals and the type of interactions with parents (Affi & Macmillan, 2011;Carbonell, Reinherz, Giaconia, Stashwick, Paradis, & Beardslee, 2002;Fergus & Zimmerman, 2005;Vanderbilt-Adriance & Shaw, 2008), but also with teachers' support (Brooks, 2006;Smokowski, Reynolds, & Bezrucko, 1999), or community relationships and resources (Davies, Thind, Chandler, & Tucker, 2011;Sameroff & Rosenblum, 2006). The third wave was composed of a body of research that attempted to translate the research findings into practice with the ultimate goal of fostering resilience.…”
