Abstract

Compares subsamples of 37 highly stressed children with stress affected (SA) outcomes and 40 demographically similar children with stress resilient (SR) outcomes, identified within a larger sample of 4th-6th grade urban youngsters. Comparisons were made on a battery of 11 measures believed on conceptual and empirical grounds to have potential for differentiating the groups, in an effort to expand the nomological definitional net for childhood resilience. SR children judged themselves as significantly better adjusted and more competent than SAs. They had higher self esteem, more empathy, and both a more internal and more realistic sense of control. They reported more effective problem solving skills and more positive coping strategies. A combination of five predictor variables used in a discriminant function analysis correctly classified 84.1% of the sample as SRs or SAs.
