No Spring Chicken: Resilience As a Reverse Mediator between Age Positivity.

I examined the pandemic's impact on Older Adults using 368 participants (183 females, Mage = 35) and found a negative correlation between age and perceived life improvements post-pandemic (-.0984, 95% CI[-.1388, -.0579]). Resilience mediated this relationship (.0256, 95% CI[.0113, .0418]), suggesting aging increases both the impact of events and recovery.
