The resilience of adolescents in the time of the Covid-19 pandemic

The Coronavirus pandemic has had major consequences on all affected populations, adolescents are among those who have paid the highest price, manifesting anxiety, depression, distress, stress and a sense of uncertainty. An entirely legitimate response which, however, has not been elaborated and experienced by all adolescents in the same way: in fact, if someone has proved capable of facing the effects of the pandemic with functional adaptability, many others have allowed themselves to be overwhelmed by this particular
and unpredictable condition. The aim of this work is to try to understand why
adolescents have shown different resilience capacities in order to propose specific educational actions, at a preventive and intervention level, aimed at enabling them to face not only the consequences of the pandemic, but also any other traumatic event.
