Developing a Contextual Behavioral Science Research and Clinical Agenda for Studying Psychological Resilience to Promote Well-Being.
Background: Resilience research offers numerous definitions, such as (1) recovery from stressors despite symptoms; and (2) subclinical symptoms after adversity. Different conceptualizations, however, have little else in common, suggesting that resilience is complex. Construct complexity results in b...

Different conceptualizations, however, have little else in common, suggesting that resilience is complex. Construct complexity results in barriers to conducting programmatic research and informing clinical application of resilience interventions. Efforts to distill a consensus description may be useful. Theoretical Framework: The current article integrates resilience definitions using a contextual behavioral science (CBS) framework. We consider the role of context in shaping flexible behavior repertoires in response to stressors, aligning with extant models of resilience. The article's objectives are to: (1) review resilience definitions and research methods; (2) aggregate definitions to form a consensus perspective based on CBS and behavior-analytic principles; and (3) suggest CBS-informed innovations for research methods and clinical application to positively affect societies. Key Insights: Resilience is best understood by understanding contextual factors shaping behavioral repertoires. Conducting idiographic assessments of resilience using within-individual designs and experience sampling could enhance research methods and clinical application of resilience. Developing process-based conceptualizations targeting contextual factors affecting resilience in clinical settings may be beneficial to uptake and application. Future Directions: Use of strategies posed could facilitate enhanced prediction and utility of psychological resilience, which would be useful for future prospective studies designed to insulate individuals from effects of adverse events. A CBS-informed research and clinical agenda can facilitate more successful dissemination and implementation in populations experiencing adversity, which could promote enhanced resilience at a societal level. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
