Resilience is the ability to overcome and adapt to adverse life situations constructively based on personal resources and the use of environmental protective factors. The objective of the study was to determine the predictors of resilience based on personal variables (assertiveness, self-esteem and emotional regulation), and the context (family support and social support) in adolescents from southeastern Mexico. 1322 students participated, selected through a non-probabilistic sample by quota, from public secondary schools and high schools in the city of Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico. 644 men and 678 women, (M = 14.64 years, SD = 1.88). They were administered a battery of tests to measure each of the variables in the study. The results obtained in the multiple regression analysis for men and women for each of the dimensions of resilience showed differences and similarities for each of the models found by sex. This evidences important gender differences since the achievement of resilience implies different paths for men and women, possibly a reflection of differential socialization.
