Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this qualitative study is through survey investigate if there is a discrepancy between the theoretical concept of resilience and the empirical application. To answer this question this study examines the following issues: What is included in various theoretical resilience concept? What is the meaning of the resilience concept at the Swedish crisis management actors today? How does the Swedish crisis management actors use resilience to make cities safer in the future? This study will be helpful for crisis management actors in their understanding of what the resilience concept and find the knowledge of these three concepts to use it in their practical work when they talk about working for resilience. In this study, twenty-six questionnaires was sent out to people who in some way are involved in crisis management. The respondents in this study work at different levels (municipal, county government, government, private sector and researchers). Research and theories of resilience is based on Brian Walker and David Salt describing engineering technical resilience and ecological resilience in the book Resilience thinking then Ulrich Beck explains according to the book Risk Society how one must work for the future and not look backwards and plan because of what was happening in the past. Pickett, McGrath, Cadenasso & Felson describes his research Ecological Resilience and Resilient Cities how sustainability is an important aspect of resilience. Finally the third concept is described, namely socio-ecological resilience where Carl Folke lifts the importance of developing resilience for the socio-ecological system to create an adaptability that allows for continuous development, a dynamic adaptive interaction between maintaining and developing in change. In order to reduce the discrepancy between the concept of resilience and the empirical application it requires, first and foremost an understanding and a knowledge of the concept of resilience. Then it requires a collaboration between various stakeholders especially the crisis management actors to take part of the research evidence and have a will to implement it practically and as a result get new innovative ideas to work with.

Teacher Resilience in Central Virginia: How Veteran Teachers become Resilient Lee Brantley Shields GENERAL AUDIENCE ABSTRACT The development of teacher resilience is important in improving teacher retention. This study identified reasons veteran teachers have remained in the classroom; individual and contextual factors of resilience; the most significant challenges the teachers have encountered; and strategies the teachers used for dealing with those challenging situations. This was a qualitative study that included interviews with 15 teachers in a rural school division in Central Virginia. The findings for this study provide practitioners with a framework to develop a resilient culture within their schools.

Resilience in social-ecological systems, defined by ecologist C.S. Holling (1973), is the persistence of systems after a disturbance. This theory of resilience is becoming increasingly important, especially in urban areas where human systems dominate. Therefore, creating resilient social-ecological systems is emerging as a focus for many landscape architects when designing urban landscapes. Researchers and practitioners have created frameworks and strategies for applying resilience theory, but designers are still lacking tangible methods they can use to implement design strategies to create resilient landscapes. This research presents a set of resilient design strategies, so landscape architects can have a tool to design generally resilient social-ecological systems in urban areas. In order to discover strategies which improve system resilience, I conducted a literature review and created a perceptual model of the social-ecological systems operating in the study site, Washington Square Park in Kansas City, Missouri. The perceptual model determined systems and system components I focused on in this research. These systems are soil, water, vegetation, fauna, and people. Strategies suggested by Jack Ahern (2011), Brian Walker and David Salt (2006), and Kevin Cunningham (2013) for creating resilience determined strategies which were applied to the system components in order to evaluate the park for resilience. The strategies suggested are modularity, redundancy, tight feedbacks, and ecosystem services. In addition, the system components and strategies were used to analyze case studies. I used strategies discovered in the case study analyses along with goals for the redesign of Washington Square Park, discovered by analyzing the site and previous park documents, to create the guidelines. I then used the guidelines to create a design proposal for the park. The current state of the system components in the park and the proposed state from the redesign were used to show the guidelines’ success in increasing the general resilience of Washington Square Park. These guidelines have potential to increase resilience in other urban civic spaces through a similar methodology I used for Washington Square Park. In addition, the guidelines have the potential to further research in applying resilience theory to the design of landscapes.

Повний текст джерелаRecently, the Internet’s success has prevented the dissemination of novel networking architectures and protocols. Specifically, any modification to the core of the network requires agreement among many different parties. To address this situation, Network Virtualization has been proposed as a diversifying attribute for the Internet. This paradigm promotes the development of new architectures and protocols by enabling the creation of multiple virtual networks on top of a same physical substrate. In addition, applications running over the same physical network can be isolated from each other, thus allowing them to coexist independently. One of the main advantages of this paradigm is the use of isolation to limit the scope of attacks. This can be achieved by creating different, isolated virtual networks for each task, so traffic from one virtual network does not interfere with the others. However, routers and links are still vulnerable to attacks and failures on the underlying network. Particularly, should a physical link be compromised, all embedded virtual links will be affected. Previous work tackled this problem with two main strategies: using backup resources to protect against disruptions; or live migration to relocate a compromised virtual resource. Both strategies have drawbacks: backup resources tend to be expensive for the infrastructure provider, while live migration may leave virtual networks inoperable during the recovery period. This dissertation presents ORE (Opportunistic Resilience Embedding), a novel embedding approach for protecting virtual links against substrate network disruptions. ORE’s design is two-folded: while a proactive strategy embeds virtual links into multiple substrate paths in order to mitigate the initial impact of a disruption, a reactive one attempts to recover any capacity affected by an underlying disruption. Both strategies are modeled as optimization problems. Additionally, since the embedding problem is NP-Hard, ORE uses a Simulated Annealing-based meta-heuristic to solve it efficiently. Numerical results show that ORE can provide resilience to disruptions at a lower cost.

Повний текст джерелаThis master´s thesis explores how an improvement work of developing and using the “Resilience Assessment Grid”, RAG, can support the potential for resilient performance on a paediatric ward, in light of the need for new safety strategies developed for complex adaptive systems. A qualitative case study of the improvement work was conducted. The improvement work was done according to the Model for Improvement. The work of developing and using RAG for measuring and managing resilient performance, supported the employees' potential for resilient performance by helping them in implementing strategic improvement interventions. The awareness and knowledge of patient safety and resilience increased, which led to increased understanding of the system and the needs of the system in terms of patient safety. We have not been able to show that the potential for resilient performance has improved by using RAG for measurement. We can neither demonstrate nor exclude that the potential will improve before further measurements have been made. Experience from the present study can be used in future interventions of improving the potential for resilient performance and patient safety in a complex adaptive system in the health care setting.

Farag, Mohamed S. "Development of Resilient Safety-Critical Systems in Healthcare Using Interdependency Analysis and Resilience Design Patterns." Thesis, The George Washington University, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10981524.
Повний текст джерелаIn the U.S. medical sector, software failures in safety-critical systems in healthcare have led to serious adverse health problems, including patient deaths and recalls of medical systems. Despite the efforts in developing techniques to build resilient systems, there is a lack of consensus regarding the definition of resilience metrics and a limited number of quantitative analysis approaches. In addition, there is insufficient guidance on evaluating resilience design patterns and the value they can bring to safety-critical systems.
This research employed the interdependency analysis framework to evaluate the static resilience of safety-critical systems used in the healthcare field and identified software subsystems that are vulnerable to failures. Resilience design patterns were first implemented to these subsystems to improve their ability to withstand failures. This implementation was followed by an evaluation to determine the overall impacts on system’s static resilience.
The methodology used a common medical system structure that collects common attributes from various medical devices and reflects major functionalities offered by multiple medical systems. Fault tree analysis and Bayesian analysis were used to evaluate the static resilience aspects of medical safety-critical systems, and two design patterns were evaluated within the praxis context: Monitoring and N-modular redundancy resilience patterns.
The results ultimately showed that resilience design patterns improve the static resilience of safety-critical systems significantly. While this research suggests the importance of resilience design patterns, this study was limited to explore the impact of structural resilience patterns on static resilience. Thus, to evaluate the overall resilience of the system, more research is needed to evaluate dynamic resilience in addition to studying the impact of different types of resilience design patterns.

Повний текст джерелаVi lever i en era där marknader är mer dynamiska och produkters livscykel kortare. En era där koncept som smart tillverkning och mass-anpassning är en del av dagliga livet i industrier och där konsumtionsnivåer av produkter och tjänster ökar. Allt detta resulterar i mer dynamiska, globala, komplexa och känsliga försörjningskedjor. Störningar påverkar kontinuiteten i verksamheten negativt hos företag och när en försörjningskedja påverkas av störningar finns det bara ett sätt att hantera utmaningarna som uppstår och det är genom förmågan att vara motståndskraftig. Baserad på systematisk litteratursökning, lägger denna avhandling fram ramverk för att positionera Vendor Managed Inventory digitala lösningar för att förse full synlighet i distributionskedjan och förbättra rörlighetens och flexibilitetens förmågor i organisationerna för att bli mera uthållig efter massiva störningar som COVID-19. Slutsatserna av detta arbete ger en positiv syn på möjligheterna för VMI-lösningar för att skapa mer motståndskraftiga försörjningskedjor.

Повний текст джерелаGiven that more than half of the world's population now lives in cities and the trend continues to rise, it is becoming increasingly important to create resilient cities. Cities that are resilient are more resistant and less sensitive to disturbance. In order to limit the scope of the study to municipal planning, the focus has been centered on the concept of social-ecological resilience. A city that is social-ecological resilient can promote ecosystem services in the long run in the urban environment despite the disruptions that it can be exposed to. Ecosystem services are dependent on biodiversity, and in order not to compromise biodiversity, it is important that land use is well planned. The study's theoretical framework, therefore, describes six strategies that can be used in municipal planning to promote social-ecological resilience. The purpose of the study is to investigate how the theoretical framework and the interpretations of experts differ from the municipal planning and analyze similarities and differences between them. The aim is to account for these differences in order to show what needs to be improved at the municipal level to promote socio-ecological resilience. The methods consisted of qualitative interviews with experts on the subject area and municipal planners from three of Sweden's largest municipalities: Stockholm, Gothenburg and Uppsala. A content analysis was also made on municipal plans to supplement the interviews. Finally, a comparison was made between social-ecological resilience through the experts’ points of view, the theoretical framework and municipal planning. The results show that knowledge of the concept of social-ecological resilience is lacking among the municipalities studied. The planning of all municipalities strives unconsciously to work for what Folke (2006) defines as social-ecological resilience. Although there are links to the concept within municipal planning, it is not used actively towards planning. On the other hand, all municipalities examined in the study indirectly work with strategies for social-ecological resilience, with priority given to the short-term, recreational and health-promoting qualities for humans. The study concludes that the most important of the strategies for social-ecological resilience is to broaden participation and promote learning, in order to spread more knowledge and understanding about why various decisions are made. Internal interaction between departments can also lead to the availability of right knowledge when conflicting interests are set against each other in decision-making.

Повний текст джерелаEste estudo tem como objetivo analisar o comportamento resiliente de brasileiros expatriados na China, diante da experiência de expatriação. Como método de pesquisa adotou-se uma abordagem qualitativa, de caráter exploratório e descritivo. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com doze expatriados brasileiros na China, as quais foram analisadas sob a luz da técnica de análise de conteúdo (BARDIN, 2011). As categorias de análise definidas a priori foram: a experiência de expatriação, situações de adversidade, dinâmica do comportamento resiliente e, fatores e resultados resilientes. Estas categorias foram definidas com base no enfoque teórico de Hofstede (1991), Grotberg (2005) e Minello (2010). Também foram definidas duas categorias de análise não a priori - emoções e sentimentos relacionados à família e percepção da cultura chinesa relacionada aos negócios-, que emergiram a partir do relato dos entrevistados. Como resultados, destaca-se que a experiência de expatriação está repleta de situações de adversidades cotidianas, especialmente relacionadas às diferenças culturais entre brasileiros e chineses, tais como os diferentes hábitos de higiene e alimentação, cheiros, gestos, idioma chinês, e comunicação no sentido de compreender a forma de pensar dos chineses. Nesse sentido, a primeira reação dos expatriados era a negação, manifestada por raiva, irritação, insegurança e ojeriza; isso se deve pelo fato de que tais situações não faziam parte do modelo mental dos expatriados brasileiros entrevistados, o que ocasionou em choque cultural. No entanto, uma das adversidades que mais foi evidenciada entre os entrevistados, estava relacionada à distância geográfica, que gerou o sentimento de sofrimento por causa da saudade dos familiares e das pessoas que tinham convivência no Brasil, e o sentimento de isolamento pela dificuldade de fazer novos grupos sociais, em um primeiro momento da experiência. No ambiente profissional, o fuso horário foi um elemento que contribuiu para o estresse dos expatriados, devido à longa jornada de trabalho que tinham que fazer para participar das atividades da empresa tanto no horário do Brasil quanto da China. Diante disso, foi possível perceber oscilação entre momentos de estabilidade emocional e momentos de angústia e isolamento, o que pode ser relacionado ao dinamismo do comportamento resiliente dos expatriados, ora positivo, ora negativo. Salienta-se, como fatores resilientes, a busca pelo apoio social nos colegas de trabalho, na internet, por meio de cursos e, pela formação de grupos de brasileiros ou de estrangeiros, a busca por aprender mais sobre a cultura chinesa, o idioma chinês e inglês. Para os expatriados casados, a família nuclear (cônjuge e filhos) ficou mais unida, representando um forte suporte emocional para enfrentar as dificuldades da expatriação juntos. Outro resultado dessa experiência, em decorrência do comportamento resiliente positivo, foi a abertura de consciência para compreensão da cultura chinesa, em que repercutiu em amadurecimento, paciência, desenvolvimento pessoal, além do crescimento e valorização profissional.

The purpose with the study was to examine whether some resilient youths who grew up in state institutions in Romania, feels that close relationships had a meaning for their lives. The questions asked in the study have been whether there have been important persons during their childhood and whether these relations have fulfilled important basic needs.
In the study a qualitative method were used, based on interviews with four different resilient youths. The study has taken an interactionistic perspective according to the theoretical approach and Turner’s (2002) transactional needs have been used as the theoretical framework.
The results of the study show that all of the respondents have had close relations during their childhood. These relations have to a great extent fulfilled important needs such as verifying self, trust, regards, group inclusion and a sense of facticity.

Placemaking for Socially Resilient Site Design is a project focused on clarifying and characterizing social resilience. This project used ethnographic methods to answer the question: what qualities of place affect the downtown community’s desires for a temporary landscape in Wichita, Kansas? Through literature review this project further defined what social resilience meant at the site scale. Social resilience was operationalized as social systems ability to maintain function while promoting social trust, reciprocity, collaboration, and character between networks of varying scales (Putnam 1995). Literature review provided the foundational knowledge on creative placemaking, a design strategy used to improve community prosperity through a sense of place and imageability (Artscape 2014). Place is determined by a user’s surroundings, and more importantly the memory of social engagement on site (Fleming 2007). Creative placemaking design strategies are valuable and specific to location. Therefore, it was imperative I incorporated ethnographic research methods to answer my focus question. Ethnographic research investigates cultural patterns and themes expressed or observed by a community (LeCompte et al. 1991). This form of research is unconventional for the typical site design process in landscape architecture. However, it proved to be effective in determining the most successful site use and organization. The ethnographic research allowed me to inventory and document user’s most desirable site needs and programming through the stakeholder design charrette and individual interviews. In November 2014 the Wichita Downtown Development Cooperation requested our team as a partner in developing a temporary landscape for downtown Wichita, Kansas. The site was already selected with the intention of becoming Douglas Avenue Pop-Up Park. Funding for this project was awarded to the WDDC in the form of a $146,025 grant from the Knight Foundation. Using an iterative community feedback process with five ethnographic interviews, I reevaluated the WDDC’s initial Pop-Up Park plan resulting from a community charrette. Recurring themes from interviews were identity crisis of downtown, outdoor preference, lack of residential amenities, negative perception of active and public transit, downtown lifestyle, Wichita as a place for families, and lack of nighttime activation. Using the recurring interview themes, I proposed a plan conducive to social resilience.

Повний текст джерелаA wide range of climatic and ecological changes are unfolding around us. These changes notably manifest themselves through an increased environmental variability, such as shifts in the frequency, intensity, and spatial distribution of weather-related extreme events. If human societies cannot mitigate these transformations, to which conditions should they adapt? To many researchers and stakeholders, the answer is resilience. This concept seems to subsume a variety of solutions for dealing with a turbulent and uncertain world. Resilient systems bounce back after unexpected events, learn novel conditions and adapt to them. Theoretical models, however, to explore the links between socioeconomic mechanisms and resilience are still in their infancy. To advance such models, the present dissertation proposes a novel conceptual framework. This framework relies on an interdisciplinary and critical review of ecological and economic studies, and it is based on the theory of dynamical systems and on the paradigm of complex adaptive systems. We identify agent-based models as crucial for socioeconomic modeling. To assess their applicability to the study of resilience, we test at first whether such models can reproduce the bifurcation patterns of predator–prey interactions, which are a very important factor in both ecological and economic systems. The dissertation then tackles one of the main challenges for the design of resilient economic system: the large interconnectedness of production processes, whereby disruption may propagate and amplify. We next investigate the role of delays in production and supply on realistic economic networks, and show that the interplay between time delays and topology may greatly affect a network’s resilience. Finally, we investigate a model that encompasses adaptive responses of agents to shocks, and describes how disruptions propagate even though all firms do their best to mitigate risks. In particular, systemic amplification gets more pronounced when supply chains are fragmented. These theoretical findings are fairly general in character and may thus help the design of novel empirical studies. Through the application of several recent ideas and methods, this dissertation advances knowledge on innovative mathematical objects, such as Boolean delay equations on complex networks and evolutionary dynamics on graphs. Finally, the conceptual models herein open wide perspectives for further theoretical research on economic resilience, especially the study of environmental feedbacks and their impacts on the structural evolution of production networks

Повний текст джерелаResilience is an aspect of sustainability which is used to understand a systems ability to resist or recover from disturbances. This thesis is about the resilience of Högdalen Centrum, and how it is affected by the newly started indoor cultivation. To determine the resilience of Högdalen Centrum, a resilience assessment has been conducted. The assessment is based on the workbook Assessing Resilience in Social-Ecological Systems: Workbook for Practitioners. Originally, the workbook was meant for natural resource management. In light of the purpose of the workbook, this thesis also attends to the applicability of the workbook on municipal management and planning. The method is based on the workbook mentioned above. The workbook is divided into five chapters, which aim to analyze the system. To be able to complete this workbook, information had to be collected. This was done through a literature study, interviews and observations. The results show that the indoor cultivation contributes with some valuable factors of importance for the resilience in Högdalen Centrum. However, there are some identified challenges in Högdalen Centrum that the cultivation does not provide any solutions for. Furthermore, this thesis does not examine whether other strategies could be more effective to enhance the resilience in Högdalen Centrum. Even though the cultivation improves the resilience of Högdalen Centrum, it is to a limited extent. From the results it is also obvious that the workbook needs to be updated. It requires high competence to understand, even though it is said to be designed for practitioners. Furthermore, it lacks some perspectives to be an accomplished method for municipal management. A few tables and figures from the workbook are not suitable for municipal planning, and filling them out is either not possible or does not contribute to the assessment. Although the workbook has its failings, it has provided us with an understanding of Högdalen Centrum as a system and how it is affected by the cultivation.

Повний текст джерелаFamilies raising autistic children grapple with stressors created by the child's often-unpredictable course of development that affects resilient family function. To that end, this study used a quantitative, non-experimental study design with 103 married parents (103 fathers, 103 mothers) raising autistic children to identify relationships between stress, father's resilience, mother's resilience, and family resilience employing the Baron and Kenny mediation regression technique. Consistent with family resilience theory, the study results demonstrated that families raising autistic children follow a resilient model. The study results suggest that father's resilience is positively related to family resilience (R2 = .753,p < .001) and mother's resilience is positively related to family resilience (R 2 = .602, p < .001). Likewise, the study results further suggest that as parental stress increases, both father's resilience decreases (R2 = .041,p = .040) and mother's resilience decreases (R2 = .168, p < .001). Equally, the study results suggest that increased stress is linked to decreased family resilience (R2 = .191, p < .001). However, stress does not fully mediate the relationship between father's resilience and family resilience (R = .887, R2 = .787, F (2, 100) = 184. 707,p < .001), or between mother's resilience and family resilience (mother R = .777, R2 = .604, F (2, 100) = 76.182,p < .001). Further, when investigating stress mediation in the combined father and mother resilience and family resilience relationship, stress still did not fully mediate the relationship (R = .623, R2 = 389, F (2, 100) = 31.795,p < .001). This means that stress partly explains the relationship between parent resilience and family resilience, but not entirely. Implications are that parent resilience is correlated with family resilience, even after taking into account how stressed parents feel. Thus, despite being in a stressful situation, the more resilient parents are, the more resilient the entire family unit will be. Therefore, since a parent's resilience and the overall family reliance are strongly positively correlated when accounting for stress levels, the results of the present study suggest that parental resilience be considered when examining family resilience.

Повний текст джерелаThis Doctoral Thesis represents a first explorative research work over the generic and specific possible interpretations and meanings referred to the relationships between resilience and urban systems. As the title’s catchword introduces, WORBAN is about the world and urban systems resilience as a result of the complex cross scales nature and dimensions of cities, nested in global networks, which definitely represent the mayor driver of global environmental change. Due to the existing variety of multidisciplinary resilience theoretical perspectives we decided to navigate different possible applications and examples of urban resiliency, from developing countries urban growth to urban planning processes in OCSE. Notwithstanding the potential fuzziness of such too broad framework, a specific conceptual common thread develops along the three case studies, the evolution of (urban) resilience perspectives relating it to (urban) vulnerability, (urban) growth and (urban) renewal capacities. A strong literature review is proposed in the first part of the thesis in order to explore the state of the art on resilience and urban resilience emerging paradigms. In the second part, as in the case of a learning process from the easier to the more complex urban resilience perspective, the case studies explain respectively: a) The urban resiliency and timeline: relating resilience to vulnerability and Climate Change threats. The Netherland example builds strong evidences over the short term links with recovery and (system) protection resilient strategies, underlining the usefulness and necessity of framing urban long term resilience toward system structural and functional changes (transitions). b) The urban resiliency and sustainability: relating resilience to fast urbanization processes in developing countries due to global economy and its cross scale effects. The Moroccan case study underline the “resilience for whom” emergent critical perspective, because of the cross scale consequences of the new urban resiliency (and transition) based on global commodity chains better than be sustained from local and regional resources. Deep unsustainable and inequitable transformations emerge from such urban metabolism shift, related to social justice because of a cultural and behavioural induced changes and essential ecosystem services access and benefits re-distribution. c) The urban resiliency behind urban renewal in global cities: relating resilience to power issues in shaping new forms and functions in emerging global cities. Barcelona case study wants to put at the forefront of urban resilience discussion the gap between generic urban resilience (maintain the global network strategic position benefitting markets chains tradeoffs) versus local citizen resilience and needs. From both theoretic reviews and case studies insights we can definitely consider urban resilience as “a multidisciplinary framework to explore the reactive, recovery, adaptive and transformability capacities of (and in) urban systems”. In doing so, the application of this framework has underlined the need of recognizing the benefits of self-sufficiency, redundancy (less efficiency), learning capacities and innovations as core principles for sustainable urban resiliency and transitions. Last but not least, the fundamental research question (and urban resilience focus) must always critically arise the issue of ”resilience of what to what”, and “resilience for whom” that we try to address.

Повний текст джерелаThe purpose of this study is to examine what factors have affected former addicts abilities to live drug free and what has made it possible for them to succeed. The study employed a qualitative research method and data was collected through interviews with four former addicts. Data was analysed with theories concerning motivation, risk- and protective factors, resilience and constraint-theory. The results of this study show that the intrinsic motivation to be drug free was found to be important to break the addiction. Strategies that the participants had employed were to avoid their former network, seek new drug free company and to consciously associate relapse with negative consequences. Actively participating in associations and treatment provided important structures that enabled the participants to establish themselves in the drug free world. To be able to provide support the environment needs to take into account the conditions and will of the individuals.

Повний текст джерелаABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to identify and enhance specific resilience qualities that help protect and support families in overcoming the adversity of having a child with a hearing impairment. The study was divided into two phases, namely (a) the descriptive phase, which aimed to identify and explore the resilience qualities that foster better adaptation in these families and (b) the intervention phase, which aimed to develop, implement and evaluate an intervention programme that enhances the utilisation of social support, one important resilience quality identified in the descriptive phase of the study. The study was essentially exploratory and descriptive in nature and was directed at developing scientific knowledge and theory in the field of family resilience. Using the Resiliency Model of Family Stress, Adjustment and Adaptation (McCubbin & McCubbin, 1996) as the theoretical framework, the resilience process was mapped in terms of stressors, risk and protective factors, and family adaptation. The 54 participating families in the descriptive phase were identified according to the nature of the crisis (hearing impairment) and the developmental phase of the family. The participants were obtained by means of a non-probability, purposive sampling procedure and were drawn from the black, coloured and white cultural subgroups residing in the Western Cape, South Africa. Both quantitative and qualitative measures were used for data collection. The results were analysed predominantly according to correlation and regression analyses techniques, while the qualitative data was categorised according to themes and frequencies. Results showed that family time and routine, social support, affirming communication, family hardiness, problem-solving skills, religion, a search for meaning and accepting the disability were factors promoting resilience in these families. A randomised pretest-posttest control group design was applied in the intervention phase of the study. The 31 participants were identified in the initial phase of the study and belonged to the coloured cultural subgroup. Data was again collected using quantitative and qualitative measures and was analysed using repeated measures analysis of variance and grounded theory analysis. The results did not indicate a statistically significant change in the utilisation of social support following the implementation of the workshop. The qualitative data, however, highlighted that the participants reported greater support from the immediate and extended family, increased family time and routine, as well as improved communication and problem-solving skills following the workshop. The study generally offers valuable knowledge that can be incorporated in psychological and social training programmes, preventative community interventions and therapeutic settings. The positive and pragmatic approach adopted in the study ensures that families are empowered by bringing them hope, helping them develop new competencies and building mutual support. The study has opened various new avenues for future research in the field of family resilience and hearing impairment.
OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie was om spesifieke veerkragtigheidskwaliteite te identifiseer en versterk wat gesinne met ’n kind met ‘n gehoorgestremdheid teen teenspoed beskerm en ondersteun. Die studie is in twee verdeel, naamlik (a) die beskrywende fase, met die doel om die veerkragtigheidskwaliteite wat beter aanpassing in hierdie gesinne gekweek het, te identifiseer en ondersoek, en (b) die intervensiefase, met die doel om ’n intervensieprogram te ontwikkel, implementeer en evalueer wat die gebruik van sosiale ondersteuning, een van die belangrike veerkragtigheidskwaliteite wat in die beskrywende fase van die studie geïdentifiseer is, te verhoog. Die studie was in wese ondersoekend en beskrywend van aard en daarop gerig om wetenskaplike kennis en teorie in die veld van gesinsveerkragtigheid te ontwikkel. Met die gebruik van die Veerkragtigheidsmodel van Gesinspanning, Verstelling en Aanpassing (Resiliency Model of Family Stress, Adjustment and Adaptation) (McCubbin & McCubbin, 1996) as teoretiese raamwerk, is die veerkragtigheidsproses uitgestippel in terme van die oorsake van die spanning, risiko- en beskermende faktore, en gesinsaanpassing. Die 54 gesinne wat aan die beskrywende fase deelgeneem het, is op grond van die aard van die krisis (gehoorgestremdheid) asook die ontwikkelingsfase van die gesin geïdentifiseer. Die deelnemers is deur middel van ’n doelgerigte nie-waarskynlikheidsteekproefnemingsprosedure verwerf vanuit swart, kleurling en blanke gesinne wat in die Wes-Kaap, Suid- Afrika woon. Beide kwantitatiewe en kwalitatiewe metings is vir data-insameling gebruik. Die resultate is hoofsaaklik aan die hand van korrelasie- en regressieontledingstegnieke geanaliseer, terwyl die kwalitatiewe data volgens temas en frekwensies gekategoriseer is. Die resultate het getoon dat gesinstyd en -roetine, sosiale ondersteuning, bevestigende kommunikasie, gesinsgehardheid, probleemoplossings-vaardighede, geloof, ’n soeke na betekenis en die aanvaarding van die gestremdheid faktore was wat die veerkragtigheid van hierdie gesinne bevorder het. ’n Ewekansige voor- en natoets kontrolegroep-ontwerp is tydens die intervensiefase van die studie toegepas. Die 31 deelnemers is tydens die aanvanklike fase van die studie geïdentifiseer en behoort tot die kleurling kulturele groep. Data is weereens deur middel van kwantitatiewe en kwalitatiewe metings ingesamel en is aan die hand van herhaalde metingsvariansieontleding en gegronde teorie-analise geanaliseer. Die resultate het geen statisties beduidende verskil in die gebruik van sosiale ondersteuning ná die implementering van die werkswinkel getoon nie. Die kwalitatiewe data het egter beklemtoon dat deelnemers ná die werkswinkel meer ondersteuning van hulle onmiddellike en uitgebreide familie geniet het, sowel as meer gesinstyd en -roetine, verbeterde kommunikasie en probleemoplossingsvaardighede. Oor die algemeen bied die studie waardevolle kennis wat by sielkundige en sosiale opleidingsprogramme, voorkomende gemeenskapsingryping en in terapeutiese raamwerke ingelyf kan word. Die positiewe en pragmatiese benadering in die studie verseker dat gesinne bemagtig word deur hulle hoop te bied, nuwe bekwaamhede te help ontwikkel en wedersydse ondersteuning op te bou. Die studie het talle nuwe weë vir toekomstige navorsing op die gebied van gesinsveerkragtigheid en gehoorgestremdheid gebaan.
