the perceived petence that es with academic achievement can play a protective role and encourage a student to stay in school, failing in school may make a student more vulnerable to negative outes. The presence of an understanding teacher or the availability of other support systems in the school may increase a student’s chances of developing coping skills. Finally, school activities where students have opportunities to share ideas, provide help to others, and participate indecision making about issues of concern to them may also play a protective role. Such activities could include peer education programs, service learning, or student advisory boards. Although the field of resiliency research is still in its infancy and many issues remain to be worked out, investigations of how social institutions, like our schools, foster resiliency are needed to ensure the creation of settings where children and youth may develop into healthy adults. Such settings can be a critical resource for children and youth, and an important focus for addressing many social problems.抗逆力研究與學(xué)校政策抗逆力研究由于定義缺乏精確性和抗逆力研究的發(fā)展,導(dǎo)致抗逆力學(xué)術(shù)用語意義含糊不清,看上去似乎互相矛盾。Arunkumar1.
