This collection provides readers with an opportunity to consider
the issue of mental health and resilience from various
perspectives. It examines numerous concepts of resilience as they
relate to patterns of adaptation in adverse contexts. Consequently,
resilience can be conceived by readers as good adaptation,
effective coping, or well-being attained despite adversity.
Referring to a class of complex phenomena, resilience is not
only a basic category for developmental psychopathology and
positive psychology but also applies to developmental, educational,
family, and health psychology, as well as to psychoneuroimmunology.
The chapters in this book address the issue of resilience from
either the nomothetic or the idiographic perspective. They discuss
theoretical models of resilience, investigate mechanisms and
processes connected with health and resilience, scrutinize various
aspects of the latter (such as risk and protective factors or
internal and external resources), and provide examples of support
in difficult life circumstances.
