THE IMPORTANCE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL RESILIENCE IN WOMEN’S SELF-REALIZATION IN FAMILY CRISES

Abstract

The article provides a theoretical and methodological analysis of the problem of psychological resilience as a leading factor in women’s self-realization in family crises. The relevance of the study is due to the increase in the intensity and duration of stress-related influences in the family environment, which determine the disruption of emotional balance, the transformation of life values, and the decrease in the level of personal effectiveness of women. In this context, the study of the internal resources of the individual, which ensure adaptive functioning and the ability to self-development, is of particular importance. The purpose of the study is to conceptualize the phenomenon of psychological resilience, determine its structural and functional characteristics, and substantiate its role in the processes of women’s self-realization in crisis conditions of the family environment. The work systematizes modern scientific approaches to the interpretation of the concepts of «psychological resilience», «self-realization», and «family crisis», and their comparative analysis is carried out within the framework of the personality-oriented and socio-psychological paradigms. It has been established that psychological resilience is an integrative, dynamic property of the personality, which includes cognitive, emotional-regulatory and behavioral components and ensures effective adaptation to adverse circumstances. It is substantiated that self-realization of a woman in conditions of family crises is a multidimensional process that involves the activation of internal resources, rethinking of life experience and the formation of constructive strategies for overcoming difficulties. It is revealed that a high level of resilience correlates with the development of adaptive coping strategies, the preservation of psychological integrity and the ability to personal growth even in situations of chronic stress. It is proven that resilience performs not only a compensatory, but also a prognostic and resource function in the process of self-realization.
