Description

Psychological resilience has been broadly defined as “the capacity to maintain, or regain, psychological well-being in the face of challenge” Resilience is a complex construct that can be conceptualized as an attribute (a trait) that is possessed to varying degrees by different individuals, a dynamic process (a state) with bidirectional relations to developmental and environmental factors, and as an outcome in the face of stress and adversity. Few studies have investigated resilience in depression, and even fewer have examined resilience in depressed older adults and as a target for novel interventions to treat depression. In this presentation, clinical features of resilience relevant for depression outcomes will be discussed. The biomarkers of resilience will be presented. Approaches to using mind-body and antidepressant interventions boosting psychological and cognitive resilience will be highlighted.
