Psychological Resilience: A Review and Critique of Definitions, Concepts, and Theory
Open accessAbstract
The purpose of this paper is to review and critique the variety of definitions, concepts, and theories of psychological resilience. To this end, the narrative is divided into three main sections. The first considers how resilience has been defined in the psychology research literature. Despite the construct being operationalized in a variety of ways, most definitions are based around two core concepts: adversity and positive adaptation. A substantial body of evidence suggests that resilience is required in response to different adversities, ranging from ongoing daily hassles to major life events, and that positive adaptation must be conceptually appropriate to the adversity examined in terms of the domains assessed and the stringency of criteria used. The second section examines the conceptualization of resilience as either a trait or a process, and explores how it is distinct from a number of related terms. Resilience is conceptualized as the interactive influence of psychological characteristics within the context of the stress process. The final section reviews the theories of resilience and critically examines one theory in particular that is commonly cited in the resilience literature. Future theories in this area should take into account the multiple demands individuals encounter, the meta-cognitive and -emotive processes that affect the resilience-stress relationship, and the conceptual distinction between resilience and coping. The review concludes with implications for policy, practice, and research including the need to carefully manage individuals’ immediate environment, and to develop the protective and promotive factors that individuals can proactively use to build resilience.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This paper reviews and critiques definitions, concepts, and theories of psychological resilience, arguing that most definitions center on adversity and positive adaptation. It proposes an integrated concept of resilience as the interactive influence of psychological characteristics within the stress process and distinguishes resilience from recovery and coping.
Key findings
- Most definitions of resilience are based around two core concepts: adversity and positive adaptation; resilience is required in response to adversities ranging from ongoing daily hassles to major life events, and positive adaptation must be conceptually appropriate to the adversity examined in terms of the domains assessed and the stringency of criteria used.
- Resilience has been conceptualized as either a trait or a process; the authors argue it is the interactive influence of psychological characteristics within the context of the stress process, with protective and promotive factors varying contextually and temporally.
- Resilience is conceptually distinct from recovery and coping: recovery involves a temporary period of psychopathology followed by gradual restoration, whereas resilience refers to maintaining normal levels of functioning; resilience influences how an event is appraised, whereas coping refers to strategies employed following appraisal.
- Over a dozen theories of resilience have been proposed in the past three decades; the commonly cited Richardson et al. metatheory is critiqued as linear, focused on one event, not explaining meta-cognition and -emotion, and biased toward coping, with its model leading to four reintegration outcomes.
Methods
- Narrative review and critique divided into three main sections: definitions of resilience, conceptualization of resilience, and theories of resilience.
- No empirical sample or primary data are reported; the paper draws on the psychology research literature and includes tables summarizing definitions of resilience and resilience theories.
- Main analysis is conceptual and theoretical synthesis and critique, including a critical examination of Richardson and colleagues’ metatheory of resilience and resiliency.
Limitations
- The paper states that definitional discrepancies hinder evaluation and comparison of resilience research findings, preclude meta-analysis, and make it difficult to operationalize the construct for measurement purposes.
- The paper states that Richardson’s model is linear, considers just one event, does not explain how meta-cognition and -emotion affect reintegration, and has a bias toward coping-orientated processes.
- Evident from the text: as a narrative review, no systematic search strategy or inclusion criteria are reported, and no primary data are presented to test the proposed integrated concept.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
