In the last decades there has been a paradigm shift from pathogenesis (etiology of disease) to salutogenesis (origins of health) in the conceptuaization of functioning following trauma. The resilience literature best represents this paradigm shift. Traditionally resilience literature focused 011 childhood development and on adolescence development. However in the last years the resilience studies have considered the adulthood, mainly in the face of potential trauma. The resilience research suggests some key points. First resilience has recently been recognized as a common human response to potentially traumatic events.

The purpose of this chapter is to review the evidences concerning psychosocial factors contributing to resilience outcome in the aftermath of potentially traumatic events in adulthood.

Abstract

In the last decades there has been a paradigm shift from pathogenesis (etiology of disease) to salutogenesis (origins of health) in the conceptuaization of functioning following trauma. The resilience literature best represents this paradigm shift. Traditionally resilience literature focused 011 childhood development and on adolescence development. However in the last years the resilience studies have considered the adulthood, mainly in the face of potential trauma. The resilience research suggests some key points. First resilience has recently been recognized as a common human response to potentially traumatic events. Second there are multiple resources, both at the individual and environment level that could foster adaptation in face of challenge. The purpose of this chapter is to review the evidences concerning psychosocial factors contributing to resilience outcome in the aftermath of potentially traumatic events in adulthood.
