Resilience Studies in the Chilean Population: A Scoping Review of the Literature

The resilience portfolio model could provide an integrative perspective on resilience. To date, there is no review of the literature resilience, and the other concepts included in the resilience portfolio model, in the Chilean context. Thus, the aim of this paper is to map the available literature on resilience and other concepts associated with the resilience portfolio model in Chilean studies. Considering guidelines of the PRISMA-ScR framework, 15,794 publications were identified, and 49 articles were included in the review after applying the inclusion criteria. Various search indicators associated with resilience and some of the concepts considered in the resilience portfolio model were used. The results were categorized according to the domains of the resilience portfolio model: Meaning making, regulatory, interpersonal, and multiple domains. Some strengths seldom mentioned in mainstream resilience literature, such as the role of communal healing, were identified. However, the findings overall indicate that there is a fragmented consideration of resilience concepts, lacking an integrative view of resilient processes. These findings could have various implications; resilience interventions might also have a fragmented vision, limiting the psychological processes of individuals, considering that clinical interventions in this area are carried out based on the available evidence. Future research should consider an integration of resilience and how factors interrelate and function in individuals exposed to various complex life experiences.
