TL;DR: Interventions that improve individual, family, and/or social support resilience factors may reduce the risk of psychopathology following childhood adversity and single vs. multiple resilience factor models supported the notion that resilience factors should not be studied in isolation, and that interrelations between resilient factors should be taken into account when predicting psychopathology after childhood adversity.

TL;DR: This work deconstructs the maintenance of mental health during stressor exposure into time-variant dampening influences of resilience factors onto these symptom networks and argues that these hybrid symptom-and-resilience-factor networks provide a promising new way of unraveling the complex dynamics ofmental health.

TL;DR: It is found that the degree to which RFs are assumed to enhance each other is higher in the no-CA compared to the CA group, and CA seems to influence how RFs relate to each other and to current distress, potentially leading to a dysfunctional RF system.

TL;DR: Evaluating psychometric properties for common measures of depression and anxiety in a large clinical sample undergoing psychotherapy showed that while both Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Assessment-7 are multidimensional instruments with highly correlated factors, there is justification for sum scores as measures of severity.

TL;DR: The findings shed light on the nature and changes of RFs between early and later adolescence, and offer some accounts for why exposure to CA has stronger proximal effects and is often found to have a lasting impact on mental health.
