Hope as a moderator in the development of psychological resilience
Keywords:
Resilience, Protective Factors, HopeAbstract
One of the psychological characteristics relating to the ability to overcome distressing living conditions and events is known as resilience. Resilience is defined as the capacity to adapt successfully as well as the ability to tolerate, adjust and overcome the crises of life. So far, studies on resilience have focused on risk and protective factors. Risk factors describe the various situations directly leading to nonconformist behavior or pathology. Protective factors, on the other hand, describe the situations which soften, diminish or remove the impact of the difficulty to develop the healthy adaptation and capabilities of the individual. Having a sense of hope in the face of difficulties is considered as a protective factor. This study attempts to define the concept of resilience and examines the place and importance of hope in increasing psychological resilience.
