TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Factors related to resilience in preschool and kindergarten students JO - Child welfare A1 - Brandwein, David A1 - Nesheiwat, Kathleen M. SP - 7 EP - 24 VL - 90 IS - 1 N2 - This study was designed to examine the relationship between resilience and within-child characteristics of children under the age of 6. Participants included preschool and kindergarten students (N = 29) and their parents and teachers from two urban communities in New Jersey. Data were obtained through the Joseph Picture Self-Concept Scale (Joseph, 2004), the Devereux Early Childhood Assessment (LeBuffe & Naglieri, 1999), and a risk factors survey that was created for this study. The authors hypothesized that a significant relationship exists among resilience, self-concept, and behavioral concerns. Correlational analyses were conducted to determine the extent of each relationship. Results suggest a significant negative correlation between resilience and behavioral concerns.
