Some thoughts about resilience versus positive development, main effects versus interactions, and the value of resilience

M W Roosa. Child Dev. 2000 May-Jun.

Abstract

Interaction effects are the defining feature of resilience and resilience research and are responsible for the unique contributions of this field of study to our understanding of human development. The methodological and statistical challenges posed by interaction effects do not, by themselves, undermine the value of resilience as a construct.
