Description

Luís Loureiro, Cândida Loureiro, and José Santos studied how resilience, life satisfaction, and well-being connect in Portuguese teenagers, in a paper published in 2025. Five hundred eighty-nine students aged ten to eighteen, from the country's central region, completed three standard questionnaires. The team tested whether satisfaction with life carries part of resilience's benefit.

Resilience and the joint well-being measures moved together very strongly. The model fit that claim: teenagers with more resilience felt more satisfied with life, and that satisfaction in turn aided positive mental health, while resilience also helped directly. About a third of the spread in well-being was explained by the model. The authors argue schools should build both resilience and life satisfaction as shields for mental health.
