Resiliency is an important concept and attribute related to an individual's ability to cope with stress and prevail. To date, most of the research on resiliency has focused on "care receivers" rather than on "caregivers". Resiliency among practicing social workers has not been adequately studied. As a result, it is difficult to understand why some remain working in a field often characterized by a difficult work environment, emotionally draining work, and moderate to low financial reward whereas others choose to leave.

520 $a Resiliency is an important concept and attribute related to an individual's ability to cope with stress and prevail. To date, most of the research on resiliency has focused on "care receivers" rather than on "caregivers". Resiliency among practicing social workers has not been adequately studied. As a result, it is difficult to understand why some remain working in a field often characterized by a difficult work environment, emotionally draining work, and moderate to low financial reward whereas others choose to leave.
520 $a The purpose of this study is to (1) develop a framework for understanding and defining the concept of resiliency as it relates to practicing social workers; (2) identify the set of demographic and attitudinal factors that set the resilient social worker apart from other workers; (3) construct multidimensional measures of job stress, competence and environmental characteristics to obtain a comprehensive view of job resilience; and, (4) determine whether the characteristics associated with resiliency remain constant across cultures and work settings.
520 $a Data is based on a 1993 survey of about 1,100 American and Israeli social workers. Research methods include a comprehensive review of the general literature on resiliency and detailed data analysis including descriptive statistics, scale development and multivariate analyses.
520 $a The resilient social worker in both countries is older, possesses high levels of job mastery and works with a low level of role ambiguity. American social workers with high levels of job autonomy also exhibit higher job resiliency. Higher levels of job resiliency among Israeli social workers is associated with higher levels of role conflict, lower levels of workload, and a good amount of emotional support from co-workers. For the most part work settings did not affect the level of job resilience.
520 $a Developed are policy implications for social work education, training and employment that suggest development of strategies for stress management as well as creating supportive and productive work environments.
