Stories convey values and emotions, and can reveal the differences and similarities between people's experiences. Elucidating personal stories involves sharing which can help form bonds and supportive networks. With reflection, these can help to develop resilience. While the literature recognises the potential cathartic and therapeutic benefits associated with storytelling in research, links between the development of personal resilience and storytelling for research purposes have not been drawn. This paper argues that storytelling aids the development of personal resilience and provides opportunities to celebrate the hardiness of research participants who contribute to knowledge by recounting their stories of difficulty and adversity.
故事传递价值观和情感，能够揭示人们经历之间的差异与相似之处。阐释个人故事需要分享，而分享有助于建立联系和支持网络。通过反思，这些能有助于培养适应力。虽然文献认识到研究中讲故事具有潜在的宣泄和治疗作用，但个人适应力的发展与为研究目的而讲故事之间的联系尚未建立起来。本文认为，讲故事有助于个人适应力的发展，并为颂扬那些通过讲述自己的困难和逆境故事为知识做出贡献的研究参与者的坚韧提供了机会。
