Psychosocial resilience and protective mechanisms.
Abstract
The concept of mechanisms that protect people against the psychological risks associated with adversity is discussed in relation to four main processes: reduction of risk impact, reduction of negative chain reactions, establishment and maintenance of self-esteem and self-efficacy, and opening up of opportunities. The mechanisms operating at key turning points in people's lives must be given special attention.

In the citing paper
“Although, youth with a history of unavailable or inconsistent care may be less likely to turn to others in times of stress (Belsky & Cassidy, 1994), natural mentors who are trustworthy and consistent may help youth feel more confident and open to emotional support when facing stressful events or chronic adversity (Rhodes et al., 2006; Rutter, 1987).”

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.
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.
