Abstract in brief

  • The text challenges the traditional view that childhood adversity only causes impairments, suggesting instead that such stress can lead to the development of specific strengths and abilities, like heightened attention, perception, learning, and problem-solving skills, especially in difficult environments.
  • Evolutionary developmental models and research across species indicate that exposure to stress can result in functional changes that benefit individuals in harsh or unpredictable settings, supporting the idea that these adaptations are beneficial rather than solely harmful.
  • An adaptation-based approach to resilience emphasizes leveraging and working with these strengths—such as improved cognitive strategies—rather than focusing solely on repairing deficits, aiming to improve outcomes in education, employment, and social participation.
