a) Identifying individual factors that predict resilience.
b) Understanding the processes through which resilience occurs.
c) Developing and testing interventions to promote resilience.

2. According to lecture 1, what are the two main criteria used to infer resilience?
a) The absence of risk factors and the presence of protective factors.
b) The nature of the threat posed by life experiences and the quality of adjustment in
development.
c) High levels of competence and the absence of psychopathology.
d) The presence of positive emotions and effective coping mechanisms.
3. The "classic model" of resilience research focuses on:
a) Identifying individuals with exceptional resilience despite severe adversity.
b) Examining differences in outcomes between a high-risk group and a low-risk group.
c) Comparing individuals within a high-risk group based on their level of adaptation.
d) Studying the impact of interventions on resilience outcomes.
4. In the context of risk gradients, what is a key point often obscured by the simple linear
representation of risk and problems?
a) The direct relationship between risk factors and negative outcomes.
b) The role of protective factors in mitigating risk.
c) The consistency of resilience across different risk levels.
d) The complexity of risk factors and their multifaceted nature.
,5. Which model of resilience emphasizes the role of a mediating variable in the relationship
between a risk factor and a positive outcome?
a) Compensatory model.
b) Moderator model.
c) Mediator model.
d) Risk gradient model.
6. Open Question
Explain the difference between compensatory and mediator models of resilience, using
examples from lecture 1.
7. The Project Competence study's conceptual framework primarily aimed to:
a) Isolate specific risk factors contributing to maladaptation.
b) Understand variations in adaptation among children at risk for maladaptation.
c) Develop interventions to prevent psychopathology in at-risk children.
d) Compare the effectiveness of different therapeutic interventions.
8. In the Project Competence study, competence was defined as:

b) A pattern of effective performance in age-salient developmental tasks.
c) High scores on standardized tests of cognitive ability and academic achievement.
d) Successful adaptation to stressful life events.
9. The study's assessment of "risk and adversity" included:
a) Only acute traumatic events, such as disasters.
b) Only chronic stressors, such as poverty or family conflict.
c) Both acute traumatic events and chronic stressors.
d) An assessment of protective factors but not risk factors.
, 10. What is a key finding regarding the relationship between competence and adversity in
the Project Competence study?
a) Competent individuals were more likely to experience severe adversity.
b) Competence had little effect on how individuals responded to adversity.
c) Competent individuals were less likely to experience severe adversity but more likely to
use resources for positive adaptation if faced with it.
d) Incompetent individuals demonstrated greater resilience to adversity.
11. The concept of "developmental cascades" refers to:
a) The cumulative effect of multiple risk factors on development.
b) The influence of genetic predispositions on developmental trajectories.
c) How function in one area or level of a system can spread to another area or level.
d) The stages of development through which resilience emerges.
12. Open Question:
Discuss the significance of the Project Competence study's multi-method, multiple-informant
approach in understanding resilience.
13. The "short list" of resilience factors emphasizes:
a) The unique and exceptional qualities found only in resilient individuals.
b) A set of characteristics common to individuals who demonstrate successful adaptation
despite adversity.
c) The importance of specific interventions for building resilience.
d) The role of genetic predispositions in determining resilience.
