TLDR
This paper examined the complex role of early stressful experiences in producing both vulnerability and resilience to later stress-related psychopathology in a variety of primate models of human development, and concluded that early life stress exposure does not increase adult vulnerability to stress related psychopathology as a linear function, as is generally believed, but instead reflects a quadratic function.

Resilience as a dynamic concept.

TL;DR: Evidence on turning point effects associated with experiences that increase opportunities and enhance coping and Gene–environment interaction findings are considered, and it is noted that there is some evidence that the genetic influences concerns responsivity to all environments and not just bad ones.

Social influences on neuroplasticity: stress and interventions to promote well-being

TL;DR: Although the precise mechanisms of plasticity are still not fully understood, moderate to severe stress appears to increase the growth of several sectors of the amygdala, whereas the effects in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex tend to be opposite.
Journal ArticleDOI

The three-hit concept of vulnerability and resilience: toward understanding adaptation to early-life adversity outcome.

TL;DR: The three-hit concept is fundamental for understanding how individuals can either be prepared for coping with life to come and remain resilient or are unable to do so and succumb to a stress-related mental disorder, under seemingly identical circumstances.

Intergenerational transmission of self-regulation: A multidisciplinary review and integrative conceptual framework.

TL;DR: A framework that brings together prenatal, social/contextual, and neurobiological mechanisms to explain the intergenerational transmission of self-regulation is introduced, a framework that incorporates potential transactional processes between generations.

Psychosocial Resilience and Protective Mechanisms

TL;DR: The concept of mechanisms that protect people against the psychological risks associated with adversity is discussed in relation to four main processes: reduction of risk impact, reduction of negative chain reactions, establishment and maintenance of self-esteem and self-efficacy, and opening up of opportunities.

Brain development during childhood and adolescence: a longitudinal MRI study.

TL;DR: This large-scale longitudinal pediatric neuroimaging study confirmed linear increases in white matter, but demonstrated nonlinear changes in cortical gray matter, with a preadolescent increase followed by a postadolescent decrease.
