Resilience discussion question
I need support with this Psychology question so I can learn better.
Scales and Measurements of Resiliency
The importance of measuring resiliency and its cultural focus is central to understanding a population’s sensitivity to interventions that may support growth in resiliency. Thus, understanding the options available will be important when identifying a specific population that is being studied.
The research has spawned different measures of resilience, including qualitative interviews and self-tests, as well as questionnaires provided by specialists. Today’s focus on using statistical methods in resilience measurement impacts the information we have concerning resilience as well as the depth of research we may conduct.
For this discussion, use the journal articles you located (they are attched to this page) that utilize scales and measurements of resilience to address the following:
- Identify what scales and measurements are utilized to effectively demonstrate resilience.
- Highlight the components of at least two of these measurement scales, identifying their method of measurement, reliability, or validity.
- Analyze their use with the specific population you are going to examine for the Resilience Terminology assignment in Unit 2.
