Abstract
During the past 25 years, there has been a burgeoning interest in the study of resilience in children and adolescents (Beardslee & Podorefsky, 1988; Brooks, 2011; Brooks & Goldstein, 2001, 2007, 2011; Crenshaw, 2010; Goldstein & Brooks, 2007; Goldstein, Brooks, & DeVries, 2013; Prince-Embury & Saklofske, 2013; Werner & Smith, 2001). As described by Masten (Masten, 2001; Wright, Masten, & Naarayan, 2013), there have been four different phases or “waves” in examining resilience.
