ObjectivesTo investigate the links between resilience and depressive symptoms, social functioning, and physical functioning in people aging with disability and to investigate the effects of resilience on change in functional outcomes over time.DesignLongitudinal postal survey.SettingSurveys were mailed to a community sample of individuals with 1 of 4 diagnoses: multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, postpoliomyelitis syndrome, or spinal cord injury. The survey response rate was 91% at baseline and 86% at follow-up.ParticipantsA convenience sample of community-dwelling individuals (N=1594; age range, 20–94y) with multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, postpoliomyelitis syndrome, or spinal cord injury.InterventionsNot applicable.Main Outcome MeasuresPatient Health Questionnaire-9 (to assess depressive symptoms) and Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (to assess social role satisfaction and physical functioning).ResultsAt baseline, resilience was negatively correlated with depressive symptoms (r=−.55) and positively correlated with social and physical functioning (r=.49 and r=.17, respectively). Controlling for baseline outcomes, greater baseline resilience predicted a decrease in depressive symptoms (partial r=−.12) and an increase in social functioning (partial r=.12) 3 years later.ConclusionsThe findings are consistent with a view of resilience as a protective factor that supports optimal functioning in people aging with disability.
