"No one will come and help me make my life": Ecological-transactional model approach to resilience among people with a history of childhood adversity.

Resilience refers to the ability to employ a collection of protective factors to return to or maintain positive mental health following an experience of disadvantage or adversity. Understanding why some children do well despite early adverse experiences is crucial because it can inform more effective policies and programs that help more children reach their full potential. This study aimed to explore and explain the development of resilience within an ecological-transactional framework.

We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis with the primary aim of synthesizing the evidence of an existing relationship between resilience and schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (SSD).
