A developmental-contextual systems of resilience is presented that conceptualises the developmental and contextual influences on the manifestation of individual adaptation in the face of adversity. It is argued that to support young people in the transition to independent adulthood the role of the context and institutional policies are vital, as is the need to build supportive and sustainable relationships between individuals and their immediate and wider context. date: 2016 date_type: published publisher: Routlege official_url: https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781315307268/chapters/10.4324/9781315307275-15 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1202893 isbn_13: 9781315307268 lyricists_name: Schoon, Ingrid lyricists_id: ISCHO87 actors_name: Schoon, Ingrid actors_id: ISCHO87 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public number: 7 place_of_pub: New York, NY, USA pagerange: 62-81 book_title: Positive youth development in global contexts of social and economic change editors_name: Peterson, AC editors_name: Koller, S editors_name: Motti-Stefanidi, F editors_name: Verma, S citation: Schoon, I; (2016) Making It Against the Odds: A Developmental-Contextual Approach to the Study of Resilience.
