rezilienciaskálák

Rezilienciaskálák (resilience scales) are standardized measurement tools designed to assess an individual’s ability to cope with adversity, stress, or trauma. These scales are widely used in psychology, psychiatry, and social sciences to evaluate psychological resilience—the capacity to adapt positively in the face of significant challenges. They help researchers and practitioners identify risk factors, track progress in therapeutic interventions, and develop targeted support strategies.

Common types of resilience scales include general resilience measures, such as the **Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC)**, which evaluates overall resilience through factors like perseverance, tenacity, and adaptability. Other scales focus on specific domains, such as post-traumatic resilience (e.g., the **Brief Resilience Scale**) or resilience in children or adolescents (e.g., the **Resilience Scale for Children**). Some instruments incorporate both positive and negative coping mechanisms to provide a nuanced understanding of an individual’s adaptive responses.

Rezilienciaskálák typically consist of self-report questionnaires with Likert-scale items, where respondents rate their agreement with statements like "I usually bounce back quickly after illness, misfortune, or hardship." Scoring systems convert responses into numerical values, allowing for comparative analysis across populations. While useful, these scales have limitations, including potential response bias, cultural variability in resilience definitions, and the influence of situational context on results.

Applications of resilience scales extend beyond clinical settings. They are employed in workplace wellness programs to enhance employee mental health, in educational systems to support student resilience, and in public health initiatives to strengthen community coping mechanisms. Validated scales ensure consistency in measurement, though their effectiveness depends on proper administration, interpretation, and integration with broader assessment frameworks.
