RESILIENCE AMONG BLIND ADOLESCENTS: AN IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS

Аннотация

This study investigates the resilience of blind adolescents, focusing on the factors that contribute to their ability to adapt and thrive despite challenges. Resilience, often described as the capacity to recover from difficulties, is particularly vital for individuals facing unique life circumstances, such as blindness. Using a mixed-methods approach, this research combines quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews to assess the levels of resilience among blind adolescents in various educational and social settings. The findings reveal that supportive family environments, access to specialized education, and strong social networks are key factors that enhance resilience in this population. Additionally, the study identifies significant differences in resilience levels based on gender, age, and socioeconomic status. By highlighting the strategies and coping mechanisms employed by these adolescents, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of their experiences and suggests practical recommendations for educators, policymakers, and caregivers to foster resilience in blind adolescents. The implications of this study underscore the need for tailored support systems that recognize and nurture the strengths of blind adolescents, ultimately promoting their well-being and development.
