Sažetak
Laboratory for Prevention Research, (ERF UNIZG) is the leader of the project "Positive Development of adolescents in Croatia", with an aim to study indicators of positive development, risk behaviour, and mental health of adolescents. The purpose of this paper is to investigate, from the perspective of adolescents, what contributes to the individual resilience of adolescents. More specifically, it aims to determine the unique contribution of gender, age, resilience factors (high expectations, caring relationships, meaningful participation) in the family and community environment, and in explaining adolescents' individual resilience factors. The sample consisted of 10, 138 adolescents from five major Croatian cities and regional centers (Zagreb, Split, Osijek, Pula, and Varaždin). Participants were between 14-19 years old (M=16.3, SD =1.2) and 52.5% of participants were female. The Resilience and Youth Development Module (Hanson & Kim, 2007) were used in the study. Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted. The results showed that gender, age, high expectations, caring relationships, and meaningful participation in the family environment and the community explained 35.1% of the adolescents' resilience. Girls, older adolescents, and those who perceive more caring relationships, higher expectations, and more meaningful participation in the family and community environment perceive more individual resilience factors. The results suggest the importance of taking gender and age into account when planning interventions aimed at strengthening the resilience of young people, as well as the importance of strengthening the environments in which young people interact daily
