Abstract

This study explored whether agreeableness and demographic variables could predict overall resiliency. Through an online survey of 398 adult participants in the US, results showed agreeableness predicts resiliency. Agreeableness, education, and age were the best predictors of overall resiliency, with implications for social programs and future research.
