Resilience in Adult Health Science Revisited—A Narrative Review Synthesis of Process-Oriented Approaches

Abstract: Purpose: This article aims to identify how the term “resilience” is addressed in adult health science due to ongoing criticism about the lack of consistency in its conceptualization.Method: Two databases (PubMed and PsycArticles) were searched to retrieve reviews published from 2015 up until 2020 on the general conceptualization of resilience. All reviews had to meet specific inclusion criteria, which resulted in the inclusion of 18 articles. After discussing different conceptualizations regarding the process-… Show more

“…The CD-RISC, for instance, measures resilience as a conglomerate of characteristics (traits) such as self-efficacy, sense of humor, patience, optimism, and faith [ 72 ]. The BRS conceptualizes resilience rather as a process variable as “the ability to bounce back or recover from stress” [ 73 ], which reflects the general debate about the conceptualization of resilience in adult health science [ 74 ]. Therefore, despite the consistent results on resilience as a statistical protective factor for mental health this result must be interpreted with caution.…”

“…Early studies approached resilience from a trait-oriented perspective [ 12 ], assuming that resilience is stable and inherent in all individuals. However, recent research views resilience rather from an outcome- and process-oriented approach, focusing on dynamic and temporal features [ 14 , 15 ]. Within this perspective, stable personality traits are seen as resilience factors predicting a favorable outcome.…”

“…Since it is known that the brain small vessel disease underlies cognitive impairment in older individuals with cardio-metabolic conditions, corresponding with the frailty cognitive phenotype, this leads to the conclusion that cognitive impairment, as the hallmark of individuals in cluster COG-IMP, may be caused mostly by the direct neuronal apoptosis, as a reaction to chronic stress, rather than by the vascular brain changes [47,49]. If it is true, then individuals in cluster COG-IMP would likely to bene t from the cognitive restructuring rehabilitation programs [50].…”
