Some Thoughts about Resilience versus Positive Development, Main Effects versus Interactions, and the Value of Resilience.
Roosa, Mark W.
Child Development, v71 n3 p567-69 May-Jun 2000
Identifies interaction effects as the defining feature of resilience and resilience research. Maintains that interaction effects are responsible for the unique contributions of this field of study to the understanding of human development. Suggests that the methodological and statistical challenges posed by interaction effects do not, by themselves, undermine the value of resilience as a construct. (Author)
