Resilience and self-image in adolescents starting school activities in a Lima area; [Resiliencia y autoimagen en adolescentes que inician actividades escolares presenciales en una zona de Lima]

Abstract

This research is based on the mere transition that adolescents go through in the understanding and challenges to overcome in terms of the impact on the return of face-to-face classes and the perception they have about themselves, therefore, the objective of the research is to determine resilience and self-image in adolescents who start face-to-face school activities in an area of Lima. It is a quantitative, non-experimental correlational study, with a total population of 402 adolescents, who filled out a questionnaire of sociodemographic aspects, Connor and Davidson's resilience scale and Rosenberg's self-esteem scale. In their results, 10 % (n=42) of the students have low resilience and 46,2 % (n=194) of the students have low self-image. In conclusion, the relationship between resilience and self-image is very important in the adolescent, since a positive self-image about oneself allows high levels of resilience. © 2023, Editorial Salud, Ciencia y Tecnologia.
