A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE CONCEPT OF STRESS RESILIENCE AND RESILIENCE IN DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN PSYCHOLOGICAL SCIENCE

Abstract

The conducted comparative analysis of scientific approaches to the study of stress resistance and resilience provides grounds for making a number of generalizing conclusions.

It was established that the concept of "stress resistance" is conceptually united by the idea of resistance and preservation of the stability of the personality under the influence of stress factors during the war. At the same time, there are scientific views that "resilience" is a conceptually different phenomenon from stress resistance, the essence of which lies in the dynamic process of flexible adaptation, recovery and personal growth, which includes the idea of post-traumatic development and the integration of both internal and external resources. At the same time, the analysis of the definition of the concepts of stress resistance by domestic scientists includes the process of adaptation to stressful conditions of activity, as well as the support, preservation and restoration of the specialist's working capacity.

We have found that both concepts are based on practically the same ideas about stress and its consequences. At the same time, stress resistance has its origins in the characteristics of the influence of internal and external factors on the personality, and the concept of resilience emphasizes the flexibility of adaptation, personal growth, and recovery thanks to external and internal resources. In our opinion, this indicates that both conceptual models complement each other and make it possible to consider all the mechanisms of resilience and stress-coping technologies for restoring the personality in the post-traumatic period, and this is also the basis for developing comprehensive programs of psychological assistance to the individual in conditions of prolonged martial law.
