Resilience in Early and Late Midlife: A Subgroup Approach

Middle-aged adults are simultaneously aware of competencies and future uncertainties, suggesting past, present, and future perspectives on resilience. Resilience was examined in 276 middle-aged adults yielding four resilience subgroups. In addition, psychological resilience in early midlife (adults < 58) differed qualitatively from resilience in late midlife (58+).
