“…Among the nine studies, three operationalized resilience using a process-oriented approach, referring to the ‘dynamic’ process of ‘actively’ coping with adversity, without physical and emotional dysfunctions [ 4 , 5 , 23 ]. Another three studies conceptualized resilience as outcome-oriented, where it was defined as the ability to ‘rebound’ or ‘bounce back’ from significant challenges [ 6 , 20 , 24 ]. In two other studies, outcome and process-oriented definitions overlapped, where resilience was defined as the ability to ‘cope’ and ‘recover’ from hardship while ‘adapting to change’ [ 19 , 25 ].…”

Background: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are presumed to influence internalizing and externalizing behaviors that can significantly debilitate long-term biopsychological development in individuals. Psychological resilience has been shown to effectively mediate the relationship between ACEs and negative health outcomes since individuals with low levels of resilience may have difficulty with bouncing back from toxic exposure to ACEs. Thus, the present systematic review and meta-analysis was aimed toward synthesizing current knowledge of the relationship between ACEs and psychological resilience in youths. Methods: A combination of key words relevant to the present study was searched on the PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Cochrane, and Google Scholar databases. The results were restricted to English publications and human studies, with subjects ranging between the age of 0 to 35 years. Effect-size measures inclusive of pooled correlation coefficients for correlation analyses and pooled odds ratios for regression analyses, respectively, were calculated using random-effect models to determine the relationship between ACEs and psychological resilience. Results: The searches identified 85 potentially relevant studies. Among them, 76 were excluded due to limited access, irrelevant data, and the fact that the variables of interest were not explicitly measured or disclosed, leaving a final total of nine studies considered valid for the meta-analysis. Findings from correlational meta-analysis (n = 6) revealed a significantly negative association between ACEs and resilience (β = −0.120 [−0.196, −0.043]). The meta-analysis of the studies (n = 3) reporting dichotomous outcomes (ACE ≥ 1 vs. no ACE) indicated that subjects who experienced an ACE were 63% less likely to display high resilience, in comparison to subjects without such experiences. Conclusion: Our results support a negative association between ACEs and psychological resilience and highlight the multiple dimensions that constitute resilience in an ACE-exposure context. These findings may be particularly useful to policy makers and healthcare institutions in terms of helping them devise effective medical interventions and community outreach programs intended to develop resilience in youths, thus reducing health-risk behaviors and negative health outcomes.

“…Considered from this point of view, the strength of family members" relationships will affect the health and quality of the family. While warm and strong family ties have a positive effect on physical and psychological health, negative situations lead to developmental problems (Deković & Buist, 2005;Kelifa, Yang, Carly, Bo & Wang, 2020). Intra-family relationships have a complex effect on the child"s development, and Bronfenbrenner (1992) names this situation as the "effect of third parties".…”

“…We correlated college students' well-being with academic resilience and academic achievement (GPA) to test the nomological validity of CSSWQ-R. Previous studies in the school or college context showed that the well-being scale was significantly associated with students' resilience and general well-being (Aldridge et al, 2016;Harms, Brady, Wood, & Silard, 2018;Kelifa, Yang, Carly, Bo, & Wang, 2020). A positive correlation was also found between the well-being and resilience of workers (Kuntz, Näswall, & Malinen, 2016;McCrea, Walton, & Leonard, 2016).…”
