Abstract

US adults (n=706) completed online surveys to assess predictors of resilience in a multicultural society during the pandemic. Sense of purpose and healthy pride significantly predicted resilience. Importance of perceived social support was moderated by collectivism; adults high in collectivism were most impacted by low perceived social support.
