Abstract

This dissertation intends to contribute by bringing to light the tools of resiliency, as a guarantee of life satisfaction, happiness and well-being, health and existential achievement, as well as to alert to the indelible role of affection relationships in the construction of a resilient self, despite the adverse and/or traumatic experience, revealing that the neurobiological systems most important include oxytocin and vasopressin, cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone and glucose, dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and serotonin, as these systems are of greatest relevance to the empathy and attachment, fear, motivation and confidence, control and planning. We believe that resilience while an innate and acquired competence should be understood in its several dimensions, as it presents of crucial importance, to an intervention model conceptualization, to recognize which resilience categories most contribute to its development, must be to recognize the categories to be worked out, at the light of the scientific revision and this investigation, are: temperament, self-esteem, self-confidence, locus of control (which should be internal); flexibility, patience, tenacity, adaptation to change; acumen, initiative and dynamism; consistency; ability for reflection, predict and plan realistic objectives; see the problem/challenge as an opportunity (growth and development); tolerance to negative emotions; optimism; intelligence; autonomy and independence; creativity; sense of humor; ability to be alone; family and social ties; faith or harmony with a spiritual source; empathy; altruism; pride; experience of success and some stress; and romantic attachment.
