Resilience is lowest among young adults in the U.S., report finds

Resilience — the ability to quickly recover from challenges — is lowest among young adults, according to a new report from health care company Cigna. Here's more:
  • The study: Experts analyzed resilience in 16,500 people in the U.S. Low resilience meant trouble focusing on strengths, pessimism about the future, and little social support. Highly resilient individuals seemed able to respond flexibly to stressful situations and had social and institutional support.
  • The findings: Only 22% of those ages 18-23 were deemed highly resilient, compared to 42% of their parents. Full-time workers were more likely than furloughed or part-time employees to demonstrate resilience, but most were still deemed to have low or moderate levels of the quality.
  • Key qualities: Exposure to diversity — including people from different religions and socioeconomic backgrounds — family support, and good physical and mental health were among the determining factors for resilience.
