About this Research Topic
Today, emotional resilience is one of the most important competencies in the process of young people's transition to adult life and developing a meaningful career. Emotional resilience is also important for maintaining well-being after stressful events throughout life. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many studies have shown the negative impact of perceived stress on people's well-being, careers, and even their employability. At the same time, emotional resilience is important in everyday life as it protects against mental disturbances.
Emotional resilience is a competence that can be developed under formal educational programs or trained using a range of training methods and tools.
Emotional resilience is a trait people have from birth and develop throughout their lives. It is a trainable capability that can be used to display positive adaptation to stressful situations and cope with life's challenges.
Research on emotions in recent decades has identified key essential components that could be included in a curriculum designed to develop emotion-based knowledge and skills. Although the topic of emotions is widely explored, research on learning and training for emotional resilience still has several gaps, especially in the field of emotional resilience for well-being and employability. Therefore, this Topic aims to provide evidence-based contributions to amplify the diversity of learning and training methods and practices for building emotional resilience.
This Research Topic is open to descriptive and experimental research, and methodological proposals emerging in educational and training contexts that aim to take emotional resilience into account. We especially welcome contributions that help understand how emotional resilience training contributes to long-term mental health conditions and well-being, as well as professional development and employability in the labor market. The goal is to collect and present to the reader, research that would help profile, diagnose, and evaluate the impact of educational emotional interventions on students, employees, the unemployed, and other groups.
