The concept of resilience could be very simply described as the process of interaction between risk, protective factors and the consequences of risks. Risks and their consequences, as well as the influence of protective factors, can be studied in many areas. Among the most thoroughly researched are the relationships between risks and protective factors with regard to drug abuse, aggressive behaviour or depression. In many cases, research reveals relatively general protective factors such as the influence of the family or the school environment. However, it is not possible to entirely generalize the potential effects of individual protective factors (resilience factors), because these factors frequently differ in the mechanisms and processes by which they operate in specific situations. For this reason, if interventions in the cases of at-risk individuals are to be effective, it is necessary to focus attention primarily on the precise nature of these interactions.
