“…Additionally, resilience reduced the negative effects of self-stigma. This suggests that having an impairment does not lower an individual's standard of living and that a person's capacity for handling day-to-day activities may also be highly significant [26]. By encouraging resiliency and creating initiatives to enhance the psychological well-being of people with disabilities.…”

People with disabilities have become a serious issue concerning public health in recent years, and people with disabilities are chronically stigmatized and might internalize attitudes and behaviors that they perceive from the majority, which can affect their day-to-day social participation, mental health, and well-being. Research has consistently found that greater resilience can mitigate the negative effects of stressors and has a positive impact on the psychological issues of stigmatized groups. This study investigates the effects of resilience on urban disability. Using tracing process technologies and taking Hong Kong as a case, findings from the study suggest that supportive policies and regulations are available and have several, but ill-conceived policymaking and undesirable implementation are typical existing issues. This review indicates that resilience can be enhanced by intensifying the disabled person’s sense of self-control in both community participation and over their own lives in the case of the difficulty of making significant changes in every aspect of life in the short term. The important role that government plays is undoubtedly by presenting a solid and positive attitude to taking the lead role and facilitating the fundamental change in the majority's mind and laws by inspiring social enterprise and the public.

Purpose: The main objective of this study was to examine the role of social identification, collective action and resilience in reducing the negative consequences of internalized stigma on the psychological quality of life of people with physical disability using path analysis. We propose a model with two paths: the first through social identification and collective action and the second via resilience. Method: A total of 288 Spanish people with physical disability aged between 18 and 82 years (46.4% males; mean [SD] of age = 45.1 [12.3] responded to the questionnaire. Data were collected for three months through an online survey. Results: The tested model adequately fit the data. We found that the relationship between internalized stigma and the psychological quality of life of people with physical disability was mediated by resilience. However, neither social identification nor collective action mediated the association between internalized stigma and quality of life among our participants. Conclusions: The results confirmed the negative association between internalized stigma and quality of life in the population with physical disability. The results show that some interactive processes, such as resilience, may contribute to decreasing the negative effects of internalized stigma. In contrast, no effects of identification with the group or collective action intention were found.
