Book excerpt: Previous research has identified that resilience, or the ability to utilize protective factors, effectively buffers the detrimental effects of stress. While the psychological pathways for the protective effect of resilience against the deleterious effects of stress has been well explored and documented, less is known about potential physiological pathways for this relationship. The first goal of this study was to explore the influence resilience has on stress response and positive affect. The second goal was to better understand differences in the relationship between resilience and stress response between Mexican-American and non-Hispanic White individuals, given that Mexican-American individuals encounter additional stress from the process of acculturation. College students (N = 120; 50% Mexican-American, 76.9% Female, mage = 19.6) completed the Trier Social Stress Task (TSST). Measures of resilience, positive affect, and physiological stress response were collected. Examination of stress response utilized measurements of Cortisol, DHEA-S, and heart rate at three time points. Results indicated that while resilience was negatively correlated to stress, depression and anxiety, and positively correlated to positive affect, it was not related concretely to change in physiological variables over the course of the experiment. These findings highlight the importance of considering resilience when examining the psychological impact of stressful experiences, and raise further questions about how physiological response to stress is influenced by the psychological impact of stress and resilience. Further, it was found that amongst Mexican-American students more acculturative stress decreased the protective influence of resilience on positive affect after stress. These results suggest that resilience is an important dynamic to examine with regard to the impact of acculturative stress on minority populations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the course of ten years, this extensive qualitative study focused on the academic resilience phenomenon. The research delves into the educational resilience experiences of fifty low socioeconomic students of color from a variety of racial and ethnic backgrounds. In addition to chronicling specific protective factors and processes active in the students' lives, several symbiotic relationships between groups of protective factors are documented and explored. A Resilience Cycle theory, which was chronicled in previous works of the authors, is used as a framework to view essential elements of the students' academic success. Ultimately, the data and findings are used to propose practical suggestions for promoting academic resilience in at-risk youth nationwide. Furthermore, because one author specializes in education and the other in psychology, both of these disciplines are brought to bear on this crucial and understudied topic." -- from back cover.

Book Synopsis Exploring Resilience and Academic Achievement by : Diana L. Wildermuth

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demography of the United States is changing rapidly creating challenges in the classrooms and ultimately changing the educational system in the United States due to this increase in diversity. With this change there is a need for educators and educational researchers to know more about the most rapidly growing ethnic group: Latinos. The purpose of the present study was to investigate why some Latino students struggle to achieve in school while other Latino students excel in their educational pursuit. This study differs from other studies since it compares academic performance differences between Mexican (n=56) and Mexican American students (n=30) in a small suburban school district in an agricultural area in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. The present study investigated barriers to academic achievement such as discrimination, acculturation, language acquisition and socioeconomic status, and looked at variables related to academic success. The study focused on two psychological constructs as possible predictors of academic achievement for this group of students: resilience and acculturation. In addition, a variety of variables were used in the study as demographic predictor variables. These included: birthplace (whether the student was born in the United States or Mexico), the student's level of acculturation, the length of time in the United States, the student's level of family socio-economic status, the student's level of resilience, gender, home language, and educational placements (ESL, Special Education, technical education enrollment). The outcome variables included a variety of measures of academic achievement including grade point average and SAT scores. All of the predictor variables were analyzed against all of the outcome variables using Pearson correlations and multiple regression. The findings of this study have addressed multiple issues surrounding resilience, acculturation and academic achievement within the new demography of the United States. While there were statistically significant findings, they are not necessarily meaningful due to the small effect size. Nonetheless, it is imperative that researchers continue to explore what factors may contribute to the success of some Latinos while others do not succeed. For example, one somewhat unexpected finding was the strength of the relationship between acculturation and academic achievement, since a student's cultural competence was a strong predictor of academic success. In addition to these findings and a subsequent discussion, this study highlights the need for more culturally sensitive resilience measures or acculturation measures and ways to support Latino students in order to bridge the academic achievement gap that exists. This study did bring attention to what may be societal struggles that impede the success of Latinos in the United States education system.

Book Synopsis Stressors and Coping of Mexican American College Undergraduates by : Jeanette Calvario Perales

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empirical literature indicates that current mental health practices with Mexican American college students are lacking. Mexican American undergraduates have unique challenges that need to be addressed by counselors within the university context and in community settings. This study addressed the dearth of empirical literature on stressors and coping strategies by exploring the experiences of Mexican American students at a predominately White institution (PWI) in the Midwest region of the United States. Through grounded theory, a theory was generated from multiple in-depth interviews using a comparative analysis process to enhance understanding of how Mexican American college undergraduates at PWIs cope with stressors. There was a total of 11 participants, 5 females and 6 males. This study sought to answer these research questions: (1) How do Mexican American college students cope with stressors? (a) What influences their coping processes? (b) What values are connected to their coping? (c) What type of stressors do they experience? (d) How do their coping processes vary? (e) What are the most common coping strategies? The themes of this study were connected, forming a theory grounded by the data. The participants’ secure ethnic identity made it easier to seek social support within their Latinx community and adapt to their environment. Their secure ethnic identity was fluid, depending on their context and Mexican-leaning. Their Mexican American values of familismo, personalism collectivism, and achievement may have served as protective factors against stress. Stress was described as worry, coping was described as solutions and cognitive coping, and discrimination was defined as different treatment. The most challenging stressor reported was family-related. The discrimination stressors included microaggressions to systemic racism. Discrimination elicited short-term stress and emotions. Participants coped by cognitively coping. Then, the participants had a behavioral response by self-advocating, avoiding the perpetrator, and seeking social support. The most common pre-pandemic stressor was being in a PWI due to seeking a sense of belonging on campus. Almost all participants were involved in a Latinx-based organization, so they eventually found a community at their PWI. The most common stressors were adapting to change and grief and loss during the pandemic. The participants experienced long-term stress and feelings of depression, burnout, and fear. Then, the participants increased distraction coping (short-term) and decreased their usual coping strategies. Sometime after the pandemic started, the participants could expand their coping strategies and use their usual coping strategies. Overall, the most common coping strategies were cognitive coping and seeking social support. This research provides the counselor education field and those they serve with enhanced training to prepare effective, culturally competent counselors and counselor educators. Implications and future research recommendations are offered.

Download or read book Handbook of Family Resilience written by Dorothy S. Becvar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-08-24 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resilience is a topic that is currently receiving increased attention. In general, resilience refers to the capacity of those who, even under the most stressful circumstances, are able to cope, to rebound, and to go on and thrive. Resilient families are able to regain their balance following crises that arise as a function of either nature or nurture, and to continue to encourage and support their members as they deal with the necessary requirements for accommodation, adaptation and, ultimately, healthy survival. Handbook of Family Resilience provides a broad body of knowledge regarding the traits and patterns found to characterize resilient individuals and well-functioning families, including those with diverse structures, various ethnic backgrounds and a variety of non-traditional forms. This Handbook brings together a variety of perspectives aimed at understanding and helping to facilitate resilience in families relative to a full range of challenges.
