“…Empirical investigation of protective and risk factors can assist with the testing and development of effective multimodal interventions. While resilience is defined differently by various authors (Barber & Doty, 2013;Hoge, Austin, & Pollack, 2007), we refer to this construct as positive adaptation in the context of severe adverse circumstances (Luthar, Cicchetti, & Becker, 2000;Hooberman, Rosenfeld, Rasmussen, & Keller, 2010). Research has demonstrated that protective factors increasing resilience such as adaptive coping styles, social support, and community engagement may mitigate the negative effects of trauma and reduce psychological impairment (Başoğlu, Paker, Özmen, Taşdemir, & Şahin, 1994;Bonanno, 2004;Hooberman et al, 2010).…”
