Peer Support, Positive Mindset Predict Resilience in ADHD Teens: Study
August 28, 2024Peer acceptance, a sense of self-efficacy, and a stress-is-enhancing mindset are strong predictors of resilience in older teens with ADHD, according to a small longitudinal study published in Child Psychiatry & Human Development.1The study, which followed 113 adolescents with ADHD from 10th to 12th grade, found that higher levels of peer acceptance, self-efficacy, and a growth mindset in 10th or 11th grade predicted higher levels of resilience 1.5 to 2 years later.Participants from the present study were assessed at three points:Peer acceptance at the start of the study explained 24% of the variance in resilience at follow-up. Teens with less severe ADHD symptoms were significantly more likely to report feelings of peer acceptance.Resilience was measured using the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), which asked teens to measure their agreement with statements such as “I tend to bounce back quickly after hard times” and “I take a long time to get over setbacks in my life.”Self-efficacy mediated the relationship between peer acceptance and resilience, accounting for 39% of the variance in resilience at follow-up.“Greater self-efficacy has been associated with positive outcomes for children and adolescents with ADHD, including lower levels of depression and internalizing symptoms, and reported higher quality of life,” wrote Elizabeth Chan, lead author of the study.Though ADHD symptom severity did not change the positive effect of self-efficacy on resilience, existing research shows that ADHD symptoms can negatively impact self-esteem.A stress-is-enhancing mindset accounted for 31% of the variance in resilience.

For now, she is focusing on her health and her children.She is the picture of resilience."Celine is the mother of three sons Rene-Charles, 21, and twins Nelson and Eddy, 12, whose father is her late husband René Angélil, who died in 2016.The condition, which affects one in a million people, ultimately leaves sufferers as "human statues" as it progressively locks the body into rigid positions, leaving sufferers unable to walk or talk.While there is no cure for the condition, there are treatments to slow down the progression, with Celine saying that she is doing all she can to minimise these symptoms.She wrote on Instagram in a touching message: "Hello everyone, I'm sorry it's taken me so long to reach out to you.
