ForwardJanuary 11, 2024: 6th Carol W. Taylor Lecture in Psychiatry - Trauma, Flexibility, and the Resilience Paradox: George A. Bonanno, PhD
Trauma, Flexibility, and the Resilience Paradox: George A. Bonanno, PhD
Decades of research has shown that response to potentially traumatic events produce various prototypical trajectories of outcome, the most common being a stable trajectory of healthy functioning, or resilience. Paradoxically, the correlates of these patterns show uniformly small effects and say little about who will actually be resilient and who not. This talk summarizes this research and presents a novel framework showing how resilience can be understood in terms of self-regulation flexibility.
Target Audience
This program is intended for: Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Fellows, Residents, Interns and Nurses
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of the activity, participants will be able to:
- Identify prototypical patterns of trauma reactions.
- Apply knowledge of divergent response patterns to clinical practice or in mental health settings
- Discuss response flexibility as a key component of resilient outcomes
