A sample of 229 African American college students were surveyed in order to assess attitudes that reflect resilience and coping, and to evaluate their relationship. In addition, religiosity, spirituality, core convictions, and level of acculturation were assessed. Attitudes that reflect resilience were defined as beliefs that one can survive and make things better for self and others (Biscoe & Harris, 1994).

520 $a A sample of 229 African American college students were surveyed in order to assess attitudes that reflect resilience and coping, and to evaluate their relationship. In addition, religiosity, spirituality, core convictions, and level of acculturation were assessed. Attitudes that reflect resilience were defined as beliefs that one can survive and make things better for self and others (Biscoe & Harris, 1994).
520 $a It was hypothesized that there would be a significant positive correlation between attitudes that reflect resilience and coping responses. It was also hypothesized that religiosity, spirituality, and core convictions would moderate the relationship between attitudes that reflect resilience and coping responses, and that levels of acculturation would be related to coping responses, core convictions, religiosity, spirituality, and attitudes that reflect resilience. A key focus of the study was to generate evidence regarding the direction of the relationship between coping responses and attitudes that reflect resilience. Because chains of relationships were being investigated simultaneously, and a bi-directional model was being tested, structural equation modeling (SEM), path analysis, reliability analysis, and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) were used to analyze the data.
520 $a The existence of a relationship between attitudes that reflect resilience and coping responses was supported, but the direction was ambiguous. Additionally, gender-based differences in coping responses were revealed, and protective religious beliefs were found to moderate the relationship between specific coping responses and attitudes that reflect resilience. Culturally salient religious beliefs and practices were directly related to protective religious beliefs and to spiritual and applied faith coping responses.
520 $a Findings from this study further suggest that supportive interventions should include the teaching of both coping skills and general resiliency attitudes. The results also point to the importance of religiosity, spirituality, and core convictions as protective factors. Finally, the results suggest the need for a revision of the items and subscales in the Resiliency Attitudes Scale, and more careful psychometric analysis of other scales used in resiliency research.
