Resilience describes a process whereby people bounce back from adversity and go on with their lives. It is a dynamic process highly influenced by protective factors. Protective factors are specific competencies that are necessary for the process of resilience to occur. Competencies are those healthy skills and abilities that the individual can access and may occur within the individual or the interpersonal or family environment. Psychiatric-mental health nursing has always focused on mental-health promotion and attempted to discern positive outcomes from adversity and states of wellness amidst difficult circumstances or severe illness. Defining specific protective factors that facilitate mental health in high-risk groups would enhance our position in today's health care climate.
复原力描述了一个过程，通过这个过程人们能从逆境中恢复并继续生活。它是一个受保护因素高度影响的动态过程。保护因素是复原力过程发生所必需的特定能力。能力是个体能够运用的健康技能和能力，可能存在于个体内部、人际或家庭环境中。精神心理健康护理一直专注于促进心理健康，并试图在困难处境或严重疾病中辨别出逆境中的积极结果和健康状态。确定有助于高危人群心理健康的特定保护因素，将提升我们在当今医疗环境中的地位。
