Abstract:

This study systematically explores the theoretical framework, core characteristics, main dimensions, and construction pathways of family resilience in the context of social transition, revealing its intrinsic mechanism as a key capacity for sustainable family development. The study reframes family resilience as a dynamic capability system of "starting point-process-outcome" and, for the first time, proposes a four-dimensional resilience framework encompassing economic, environmental, social, and relational aspects, uncovering its transition logic from resistance to growth. The construction and evolution of family resilience is a long-term, complex, and systematic task. Strengthening family resilience requires clarifying overarching principles, implementing systematic planning and comprehensive strategies, and simultaneously emphasizing the synergy between internal family development and the expansion of external support networks to achieve multidimensional enhancement. This study provides a new perspective for understanding family resilience and holds both theoretical and practical significance for family development in the new era. Future research should focus on strengthening indicator systems and quantitative assessments, delving into causal mechanisms, and providing more precise practical guidance for enhancing family resilience.

Key words: family resilience, family flexibility, family recovery capacity, risk response, resilience cultivation
