“…First, it supports the conclusions of previous research in identifying certain aspects of a “fighter” personality, such as determination and positivity (Mullin & Arce, ; Simpson & Jones, ; West, Usher, & Foster, ), as well as support from family members and friends (Cohen, Ferguson, Harms, Pooley, & Tomlinson, ; Genest, ; Greeff & du Toit, ; Greeff & Thiel, ; Greeff & Van der Merwe, ) as having an impact on the resilience process. Furthermore, this study adds clarification to certain claims in previous study as to the impact of cultural and spiritual beliefs (Jonker & Greeff, ; Wu, ) and of the family's socioeconomic status (Bayat, ; Walsh, ), of the help received from professionals and the feeling of being helpful to one's teenager, and of the role of health professionals in the resilience process (Greeff, Vansteenwegen, & Herbiest, ; Klerk & Greeff, ). Finally, it casts a new light on the positive influence of the presence of hope (Simpson & Jones, ; West, Buettner, Stewart, Foster, & Usher, ), of keeping a sense of humor (Jourdan‐Ionescu, ), of practicing sports and leisure activities and of back‐to‐school support (Ahlert & Greeff, ) on the resilience process.…”

The most common type of violence against women is domestic violence so that it is considered as a general health crisis. Resilience is a self-healing method featured with positive emotional outcomes. Religious attitudes are of the probable grounds of development of resilience techniques among women who have been victim of domestic violence. The present study is aimed at determining correlation between religious attitudes and resilience among women with domestic violence. The present study is a descriptive correlative research. Selected Health centers in east and north districts of Tehran affiliated with Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences. Data gathering tools were a demographic information questionnaire, Connor-Davidson's Resilience scale, and Serajzadeh's "Muslim Religiosity questionnaire".We used Pearson correlation test to indicate the presence of correlation between resiliency and religious attitudes. Data analyses were performed in SPSS 16. Mean and standard deviation of religious attitudes and resilience among the women with domestic violence were 76.41±9.96, 68.46±15.68 respectively. The results showed that there was correlation between religious attitude and resilience among women who have been subject to domestic violence. (P<0.001, r=0.24). Women under domestic violence had stronger religions attitudes and higher resilience strength. It appears that resilience among women subject to domestic violence and the effective factors on resilience and religious attitudes in particular (given the role of religion in Iranians' lives) deserve special attention.

Additionally, both traits have been found to positively influence the quality of life as well as act as a buffer against the negative impact of stressors [15]. Studies have found that an inverse relationship exists between optimism and depressive symptoms [16] as well as between optimism and suicidal ideation [17].…”

The purpose of the present article is to outline and review the impact of stable psychological characteristics on the emotional and functional outcomes of neurosurgical patients. Neurosurgical patients face adversity as inherent to their diagnoses and, consequently, experience emotional distress. Despite commonalities in diagnoses, diverse outcomes are seen post-neurosurgery, which are influenced by psychological factors. Therefore, an understanding of neurosurgical patients’ behavior, thoughts, and feelings surrounding their diagnoses, informed by psychological concepts, is important for both neuropsychology and neurosurgery.
