Understanding Resilience: The Impact of ACE, Self-Discipline Domains, and Locus of Control on Resilience

Significant hierarchical regression analyses show ACEs positively predict resilience in adulthood and this model is strengthened when adding in the other factors, in particular self-regulation.
