Mutual adjustment of socioeconomic adversity by psychosocial adversity and vice versa did not affect the estimates, and differences between the groups of adversities, based on overlapping confidence intervals, are unlikely to be significant.
The difference between the groups of no adversities, 1 2 adversities and 3 6 adversities became evident after 3 years of follow-up and widened during the course of time.
Then the scores for these five groups of family adversities were standardised and summed to create a total composite family adversity index score (see [ 52, 56, 119, 120]).
To ensure that each of the five groups of family adversities (SES, parental separation, early parenthood, parental psychological distress, and stressful life events) was equally weighed in the composite index derived, a standardised average score was computed for the groups of family adversities that had more than one indicator.
It is uplifting because it is about a group of people fighting adversity".
How a group of émigrés overcame adversity – and enriched the world with their modernist vision.
LCA [ 17, 28] is a model-based clustering technique which enables individuals to be grouped according to their pattern of adversities, rather than the total number experienced.
The ingredients change, but a chick flick generally features a heroine, or even better, a group of heroines, bravely confronting adversity.
There was a clear trend in all groups suggesting that an increase in the number of adversities was associated with an increased risk of depressive symptoms.
In contrast to variable-centred approaches, person-centred approaches involve identifying a group of resilient children (who experience high adversity but exhibit adequate adjustment), and comparing their characteristics with other groups of children showing different patterns of adversity and adjustment, in order to identify resource factors associated with resilience (e.g., [ 12, 25, 90]).
To estimate the prevalence of adversity (neglect and abuse, parental loss, parental psychopathology, economic adversity, and serious physical illness), the interrelatedness of adversities, and their socio-demographic correlates.
