Abstract
ABSTRACT The current study examined the association of social support and background variables with resilience among young adults exposed to traumatic and stressful events of armed conflict in Kashmir, India. Data were collected from 693 participants using a multi-stage sampling method. Findings revealed that social support and gender were positively associated with resilience, whereas education, income, and maternal education were negatively associated with resilience. Moreover, feeling insecure and psychologically distressed as a result of conflict was negatively associated with resilience, whereas, perception that Kashmir conflict will be resolved was positively associated with resilience. The findings suggest fostering of resilience in this population.
