Psychological resilience in young and older adults
Results: The older adults were the more resilient group
especially with respect to emotional regulation ability and problem solving.
The young ones had more resilience related to social support. Poor perceptions
of general health and low energy levels predicted low levels of resilience
regardless of age. Low hopelessness scores also predicted greater resilience in
both groups. Experiencing higher levels of mental illness and physical
dysfunction predicted high resilience scores especially for the social support
resilience scale in the older adults. The negative effects of depression on
resilience related to emotional regulation were countered by low hopelessness
but only in the young adults.
Conclusions: These results highlight the importance of
maintaining resilience-related coping skills in both young and older adults but
indicate that different psychological processes underlie resilience across the
lifespan.

Children are more resilient at 10 years old than 15,
study finds
Stress on the Front Lines: Comparing Resilience in Female
and Male Health Care Providers. After
experiencing a major stressor, women are more likely than men to report signs
of anxiety or other symptoms of distress. This has led some to conclude that
women may be less psychologically resilient than men. However, as shown by
Women’s Health Research at Yale investigators studying stress in health care
providers on the front lines of COVID-19, gender differences in reported
distress were not found when the presence of preexisting or concurrent stressors
were taken into account.
New Study Finds Female Executives More Resilient Than
Male Executives. Female leaders are more Holistic – comprehensive in balancing
relations and tasks; Empathetic – caring for team harmony and interpersonal relationships;
Resilient – more resilient and better at regulating stress. However, Zhang
notes that these traits are "gender-label" free and that men as well
as women can adopt them in their management style.
Research suggests that the incidence rate for NDEs among
those who have survived a close brush with death is around 20%. Given that NDEs
and PTSD commonly originate in exposure to life-threatening events, it seems
reasonable to speculate that many who have been diagnosed with PTSD may also have
experienced one or more features of an NDE.
Estimates vary but as many as 15% of those reporting NDEs
describe them as distressing, even “hellish.” This includes being in a lifeless
place, feeling threatened or sensing danger. It’s easy to imagine that such
content could be a contributing cause of PTSD and/or exacerbate its symptoms.
Conceivably, this kind of experience could become the
source of triggers, avoidance behaviors or intrusive memories. It could also
reinforce self-limiting beliefs such as “There’s something wrong with me” or
“I’m not safe.”
Although participants were not assessed for PTSD, the
results reinforce what I have found in clinical practice. Clients with PTSD who
have also had an NDE that is disclosed during counseling often use the NDE as a
source of meaning, enhanced self-worth, and posttraumatic growth. Such
explorations can also normalize an NDE and diminish distress with which it may
have been associated.
I worked with a patient who developed delayed-onset PTSD
related to combat. As he struggled with adverse aspects of illness such as
debility and physical pain, he began having nightmares, panic attacks, and
moral pain related to “dropping bombs on women and children.” He disclosed a
combat-related NDE during which he’d felt unconditional love, unitive
consciousness and had received the message that “everything bad I’d ever done
had already been forgiven.”
He had dismissed this experience as an indication of
“combat stress” and never spoken about it. When the NDE’s content was brought
into our sessions he was able to affirm the experiences of love, connection and
forgiveness which lessened the intensity of PTSD-related anxiety and shame. His
panic attacks and nightmare ceased, and he was able to express his moral pain
in ways that allowed self-compassion for himself as a “twenty-one-year-old kid”
thrown into the savagery of war.
A study of combat veterans found that 82% of subjects had
not disclosed NDEs to Veterans Administration staff. The researchers concluded
that mental health providers need training in “how to invite survivors of a
close brush with death to disclose a possible NDE. It may also need to include
the point that NDEs alone do not justify diagnosis of mental disorder nor, it
follows, treatment with psychoactive medications.”
