Description
Summary:The study of resilience focuses on the analysis of resources and answers activated by formal and informal systems to prevent or lessen the effects of social problems. Married and mixed couples are in a difficult situation due to the economic crisis, to cultural differences and to the existing prejudices towards people from foreign countries. The aim of this study is to determine the level of resilience in members of interracial marriages and couples. Also, aims to identify the degree of resilience and main characteristics and profiles of people with high levels of resilience in intercultural couples. To complete this study, the researchers have used the resilience scale by Wagnild and Young, adapted by Rodriguez, Pereyra, Gil, Jofre, De Bortoli y Labiano. The results show significant correlations between the variables of origin and gender and resilience. Aspects related to personal competence and auto-efficacy appear to have influence on resilience.
