Multisystemic approaches to researching young people?s resilience: Discovering culturally and contextually sensitive accounts of thriving under adversity / Linda THERON ; Michael UNGAR in Development and Psychopathology, 35-5 (December 2023)

Titre : Multisystemic approaches to researching young people?s resilience: Discovering culturally and contextually sensitive accounts of thriving under adversity Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Linda THERON, Auteur ; Michael UNGAR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2199-2213 Mots-clés : Resilient Youth in Stressed Environments cultural mixed methods multisystemic resilience Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : As our understanding of the process of resilience has become more culturally and contextually grounded, researchers have had to seek innovative ways to account for the complex, reciprocal relationship between the many systems that influence young people?s capacity to thrive. This paper briefly traces the history of a more contextualized understanding of resilience and then reviews a social?ecological model to explain multisystemic resilience. A case study is then used to show how a multisystemic understanding of resilience can influence the design and implementation of resilience research. The Resilient Youth in Stressed Environments study is a longitudinal mixed methods investigation of adolescents and emerging adults in communities that depend on oil and gas industries in Canada and South Africa. These communities routinely experience stress at individual, family, and institutional levels from macroeconomic factors related to boom-and-bust economic cycles. Building on the project?s methods and findings, we discuss how to create better studies of resilience which are able to capture both emic and etic accounts of positive developmental processes in ways that avoid the tendency to homogenize children?s experience. Limitations to doing multisystemic resilience research are also highlighted, with special attention to the need for further innovation.

Titre : Multisystemic supports and adolescent resilience to depression over time: A South African mixed methods study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Linda THERON, Auteur ; Michael UNGAR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2365-2383 Mots-clés : African adolescents culturally responsive resilience-enablers depression trajectories multisystemic resilience resource diversity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In sub-Saharan countries, like South Africa, there is scant understanding of adolescent resilience to depression over time; the multisystemic resource combinations that support such resilience; and whether more diverse resource combinations yield better mental health dividends. In response, we conducted a longitudinal concurrent nested mixed methods study with 223 South African adolescents (mean age: 17.16 years, SD = 1.73; 64.60% girls; 81.60% Black). Using longitudinal mixture modeling, the quantitative study identified trajectories of depression and associations between trajectory membership and resource diversity. Using a draw-and-write methodology and reflexive thematic analyses, the qualitative study explored the resource diversity associated with each trajectory. Taken together, these studies identified four depression trajectories (Stable Low; Declining; Worsening; Chronic High) with varying resource diversity at baseline and over time. Resource diversity was inclusive of personal, relational, contextual, and culturally valued resources in both the Stable Low and Declining trajectories, with emphasis on relational supports. Personal resources were emphasized in the Worsening and Chronic High trajectories, and culturally valued and contextual resources de-emphasized. In summary, resource constellations characterized by within and across system diversity and cultural responsiveness are more protective and will be key to advancing sub-Saharan adolescent mental health.
