HENDRIE KUPCZYSZYN, Karina Noelia. Exploración de instrumentos que evalúan recursos resilientes en población infantil argentina. Rev. psicodebate: psicol. cult. soc. [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.2, pp.24-39. ISSN 24516600.

The social, economic, physical and psychological adversities to which some child population groups are exposed, seriously compromise their development and performance, reducing their well-being and quality of life. In recent years, studies devoted to the concept of resilience and its measurement have been given great importance because of the contribution that this construct has provided to understand the way in which individuals can cope with crisis and misfortune situations and still be strengthened despite the circumstances. The identification and diagnosis of resilient resources has then become a goal of great significance for psychological discipline. The objective of this study was to systematize the information referring to measurement instruments created and validated in recent years for the assessment of strengths or resilient resources in children of Argentina. For data collection, different scientific studies were analyzed, including journal articles, graduate and postgraduate theses, thus identifying 17 measurement instruments to assess resilient resources in the childhood period. All of them present appropriate psychometric properties and allow to explore validly and reliably the presence of numerous resilient resources in Argentine children.
