La Notion De Résistance Et Ses rapports avec L'intervention Préventive Et Promotionnelle Auprès Des Enfants

Publication: Canadian Journal of Community Mental Health
April 1995

Résumé

L'intervention préventive, souvent issue des études sur les facteurs de risque, se déploie envers et contre les éléments néfastes spécifiques au problèmes que l'on cherche è prévenir. Cet article propose d'examiner l'apport potentiel de la notion de résistance au domaine de l'action préventive et de l'action promotionnelle: l'identification des facteurs protecteurs de l'adaptation et des ingrédients personnels de la résistance conduit vers le choix optimal des objectifs de l'intervention préventive et de l'intervention promotionnelle. Par ailleurs, les stratégies d'intervention promotionnelle constituent une voie privilégiée vers l'acquisition de connaissance quant aux liens dynamiques entre les facteurs adverses et protecteurs entourant l'adaptation psychosociale de l'enfant. La pertinence d'étudier plus è fond les processus et mécanismes de la résistance est discutée.

Abstract

This paper reviews research on protective factors against social maladjustment. The purpose of the paper is to examine the personal and environmental factors that result in children's and adolescents' resistance to stressors. It suggests that prevention and promotion programs would benefit from planning based on a protective as opposed to risk perspective. Also, it argues that experimental trials in the promotion of social adjustment are likely to result in new knowledge about mechanisms that lead to adaptation in spite of adversity.
