Resilience is the ability of people to 'spring back' in the face of adversity. It is an important concept for nurses as we endeavour to assist individuals to meet the challenges of living with illness and ageing. Researchers from many disciplines in both the social and health sciences have investigated resilience of individuals throughout the life cycle in a variety of situations related to health as well as other life events. Some researchers have investigated resilience as a trait of individuals while other view resilience as a process. This article reviews the current literature on resilience from many disciplines and discusses implications for nursing practice and research.
适应力是指人们在面对逆境时“恢复原状”的能力。对于护士来说，这是一个重要的概念，因为我们致力于帮助个体应对与疾病和衰老相伴的生活挑战。社会科学和健康科学众多学科的研究人员，在与健康以及其他生活事件相关的各种情况下，对个体在整个生命周期中的适应力进行了调查。一些研究人员将适应力作为个体的一种特质来研究，而另一些人则将适应力视为一个过程。本文回顾了来自众多学科的关于适应力的当前文献，并讨论了其对护理实践和研究的启示。
