Adolescents, Emotions, Optimism, Psychology, Positive, ResilienceAbstract
Positive psychology provides a renewing perspective based on personal strengths such as optimism and resilience, since the absence of these protective factors makes adolescents more likely to face physical and emotional health problems, since due to their own stage of change they are more vulnerable to risk factors.
Objective: Determine the relationship between optimism and resilience in adolescents.
Methods: A quantitative, non-experimental study was used, with a descriptive, correlational and cross-sectional scope. The sample was selected through a non-probabilistic convenience sampling, with 165 adolescents, 109 females and 56 males, aged between 14 and 18 years. The instruments used were the Life Orientation Test Revised (LOT-R) and the Wagnild and Young Resilience Scale.
Results: The findings of this research indicate a mild positive relationship of low intensity. The mean optimism score was 14.6. In addition, low and very low resilience was found in the participants. Finally, no significant differences were identified between men and women.
Conclusions: Maintaining favorable expectations regarding future situations contributes to the ability to adapt and overcome adversity, which facilitates emotional well-being.
