As part of a larger investigation of very low income families, this study examined the characteristics that differentiated resilient from nonresilient school-age youths, with a focus on self-regulation (e.g., executive function, emotion regulation) skills. Resilience was operationally defined in a robust and comprehensive manner using well-established instruments that measured children's emotional well-being and mental health. Controlling for other explanatory variables, including differences in the experience of negative life events and chronic strains, resilient youths were notably different from nonresilient youths in terms of having greater self-regulatory skills and self-esteem, as well as in receiving more active parental monitoring. Study findings are discussed with regard to the theoretical framework of self-regulation and their implications for preventive intervention.
作为对极低收入家庭进行的一项更广泛调查的一部分，本研究考察了区分有复原力和无复原力学龄青少年的特征，重点关注自我调节（如执行功能、情绪调节）技能。使用成熟的测量儿童情绪健康和心理健康的工具，以稳健且全面的方式对复原力进行了操作性定义。在控制了其他解释变量，包括负面生活事件经历和慢性压力的差异后，有复原力的青少年与无复原力的青少年在自我调节技能和自尊方面更胜一筹，并且得到父母更积极的监督，二者存在显著差异。研究结果结合自我调节的理论框架进行了讨论，并阐述了其对预防性干预的意义。
