Book Description
Se ha demostrado que la adolescencia es una etapa de recursos y de oportunidades y que los factores de protección pueden dar más información sobre los procesos de adaptación, sin embargo, la evaluación de factores de riesgos también contribuye a entender el desarrollo adolescente ante situaciones extremas. Es por ello que el modelo ecológico-transaccional tiene propuestas que explican la forma de interactuar entre los factores de riesgo y los factores de protección, lo cual da como resultado diferentes trayectorias del desarrollo y formas de adaptación, que van más allá de la adaptación, y que se denomina resiliencia. El objetivo principal de Adaptación y resiliencia adolescente en contextos múltiples es presentar un análisis de lo que implica el desarrollo adolescente a partir de dos procesos básicos, la adaptación y la resiliencia, de los cuales se presentan sus fundamentos teóricos y metodológicos, lo que permite entender algunos de los riesgos enfrentados por los adolescentes, pero también los factores que pueden ayudarles a continuar con un desarrollo saludable, más allá de situaciones normativas en diversas poblaciones. La información se organiza en cinco capítulos, que presentan reflexiones teóricas y una breve revisión del estado del arte sobre variables involucradas con la adaptación adolescente. La obra abordan de manera profunda las variables que interaccionan en el desarrollo adolescente desde una perspectiva teórica metodológica basada en la evidencia científica, por lo que va dirigida principalmente a alumnos en formación y a profesionales de la salud mental orientados al estudio de adolescentes y familias.

Overcoming the Odds
Author: Emmy E. Werner
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501711997
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
Overcoming the Odds looks closely at the lives of an ethnically diverse group of 505 men and women who were born in 1955 on the Hawaiian island of Kauai and who have been monitored from the prenatal period through early adulthood by psychologists, pediatricians, public health professionals, and social workers. Werner and Smith trace the impact of a variety of biological and psycho-social risk factors and stressful events on the development of these individuals, most of whose parents did not graduate from high school and worked as semiskilled or unskilled laborers. Incorporating vivid case study accounts with statistical analysis, the authors focus on both the vulnerability and the resilience of those who overcame great odds to grow into competent and caring adults. They trace the recovery process through which most of the troubled adolescents in the cohort—those with histories of delinquency, teenage pregnancy, and mental health problems—emerged with improved prospects in their twenties and early thirties. Identifying both the self-righting tendencies that enable high risk children later to adapt successfully to work, marriage, and parenthood, and the conditions under which professional and volunteer care is most beneficial, Werner and Smith offer concrete suggestions for effective intervention policies.

Adolescentes en riesgo
Author: Blanca Estela Barcelata Eguiarte
Publisher: Editorial El Manual Moderno
ISBN: 607448516X
Category : Psychology
Languages : es
Pages : 120
Book Description
La presente obra tiene como propósito analizar aspectos teóricos y metodológicos, con una base empírica, de la resiliencia, a partir el enfoque de la psicopatología del desarrollo también denominado perspectiva evolutiva o ecológico transaccional, por su visión integral del desarrollo adolescente. Desde esta perspectiva o macroparadigma, la resiliencia implica un constructo multidimensional que refiere a la capacidad de adaptación positiva a pesar de un riesgo o estrés significativo, como la pobreza. En este sentido se hacen algunas consideraciones sobre la pobreza como un factor multifactorial asociado a distintas adversidades y estresores que representan un riesgo para los adolescentes. Se discuten algunos aspectos sobre la adolescencia y de lo que implica ser adolescente en México, por lo que se informa sobre los riesgos y trastornos de salud mental a nivel mundial y nacional. También se presentan hallazgos de investigación con adolescentes mexicanos de algunos factores de protección asociados con la resiliencia como: afrontamiento, apoyo social y habilidades psicosociales. Por último, se realiza un análisis de las implicaciones del estudio de la resiliencia en la adolescencia, para el desarrollo de políticas y acciones de salud mental en diferentes niveles de intervención, que privilegien tanto la prevención de problemas emocionales y de conducta como la promoción del desarrollo positivo de los adolescentes. Esta obra va dirigida a profesionales de la salud mental en el ámbito académico y clínico, así como a todos aquellos interesados en el tema.

Flourishing Children
Author: Laura H. Lippman
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9401786070
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
This volume presents the results of the Flourishing Children Project. The study addressed gaps in the research on indicators of positive development of adolescents. Such indicators are essential for the balanced and scientifically sound study of adolescents. Yet measures of many aspects of flourishing are not available, and when they do exist, they are rarely measured in a developmentally appropriate manner for adolescents. In addition, they are often too long for program evaluations and surveys, have not been tested on diverse populations, nor carefully validated as predictors of positive outcomes. The Flourishing Children Project undertook the development of scales for adolescents ages 12-17 for 19 aspects of flourishing covering six domains: flourishing in school and work, personal flourishing, flourishing in relationships, relationship skills, helping others to flourish, and environmental stewardship. This volume describes the four-stage process of developing the scales, including: Reviewing the literature for extant measures for items to test and synthesizing the existing research into consensus definitions for each construct; conducting cognitive testing of items with adolescents and their parents; pilot testing the items; and conducting psychometric analyses.
