At-Risk Students and Resiliency: Factors Contributing to Academic Success.
McMillan, James H.; Reed, Daisy F.
Clearing House, v67 n3 p137-40 Jan-Feb 1994
Integrates existing literature with the authors' research that examines resiliency (students in danger of dropping out of school who are able to develop stable, healthy personas and are able to recover from or adapt to life's stresses or problems). Suggests a model to explain resiliency that can be used to better understand why these students have been successful. (RS)
