[摘要] ENGLISH ABSTRACT:The present study focuses on the salutogenic properties of families and attempted toidentify factors that promote resilience in post-divorce families. McCubbin andPatterson's (1983) double ABCX model explains how families adapt to crises(divorce), and takes into account other life events that also impact on the family'sresources. A cross-sectional research design was chosen to identify factors relatedto family resilience. The 98 participating families were identified on the grounds of thenature of the crisis and the developmental phase of the family. Self-reportquestionnaires were completed by the parent and a child acting as representatives ofthe family. These questionnaires consisted of a biographical questionnaire, theRelative and Friend Support Index, the Social Support Index, Family Crises OrientedPersonal Evaluation Scales, Family Sense of Coherence Scale, and the FamilyHardiness Index. Intra-family support, support of the extended family, support offriends, religion, open communication amongst family members, and work- andfinancial security were identified as factors promoting resilience in these post-divorcefamilies.
