Abstract Rural and urban communities merge. Sedati’s districts are vulnerable due to a lack of infrastructure, dispersed populations, disaster management capacities, subsistence. A city is resilient if its citizens can survive recover from disaster. These relationships allow for implementing programs that promote rural resilience. How do spatial patterns affect resilience determinants? This res...

Abstract Village Resilience Assessment is a process of assessing resilience that carried out by the community independently to determine level resilience. This assessment framework adopts village and urban disaster standards in SNI 8357:2017 adapts DROP (Disaster Place) model. The methodology this study uses qualitative method with descriptive analysis approach. produces several outputs, such a...

The term resilience has dominated the discourse among health systems researchers since 2014 and the onset of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa. There is wide consensus that the global community has to help build more resilient health systems. But do we really know what resilience means, and do we all have the same vision of resilience? The present paper presents a new conceptual framework on go...

Methods: Using the concept mapping approach and through team effort, we developed the Essential Resilience Scale (ERS, 15 items) with a conceptual framework consisting of three components (anticipation, flexibility and bounce-back) and three subscales (physical, emotional and social, 5 items per subscale). We tested the ERS with an adult sample (18-45 years old) in Mainland China consisting of ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to examine a resilience training intervention that impacts autonomic responses to stress and improves cardiovascular risk, psychological, and physiological outcomes in police. METHODS Officers [(n = 38) 22 to 54 years] modified emotional and physical responses to stress using self-regulation. Measurements include psychological and physiological measures [eg,...

Despite improvements in preparedness, response, and recovery, the intensity of floods is increasing on a global scale. There is no way to fully prevent or mitigate against floods. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the flood resilience of communities around the world. Due to differences in the location, topography, and socio-economic characteristics of communities, flood risk and resilience ...

Increased vulnerability to natural disasters has been associated with particular groups in the community. This includes those who are considered de facto vulnerable (children, older people, those with disabilities etc.) and those who own pets (not to mention pets themselves). The potential for reconfiguring pet ownership from a risk factor to a protective factor for natural disaster survival ha...

Ecologists have used the concept of resilience since the 1970s. Resilience also features in many of the social and economic sciences, though in a less central role and with a variety of interpretations. Developing a fuller understanding of the concept of socialecological resilience promises advances in how science can contribute to achieving better environmental outcomes, locally and globally. ...

Available online 10 November 2008 Resilience has been conceptualized in several ways, including a disposition that promotes positive outcomes in general and successful adaptation in the face of challenging or stressful circumstances. Using Wagnild and Young's [Wagnild, G. M., & Young, H. M. (1993). Development and psychometric evaluation of the Resilience Scale. Journal of Nursing Measurement, ...
