Understand that resilience is a psychological trait related to how individuals handle stress and adversity.
Recognize that resilience involves the capacity to adapt positively when faced with challenges, rather than avoiding stress or being unable to cope.
Eliminate options that describe avoidance of stress or inability to cope, as these do not align with the concept of resilience.
