ABSTRACT
Ego-resiliency is an enduring psychological construct reflecting how individuals-adapt to environmental stressors, conflict, and change which is linked to positive adjustment. Ego-resiliency has not been examined in Latino youth, despite their high risk for mental health problems; nor have cultural precursors to ego-resiliency been examined. Given these gaps, we examined whether familism values (supportive, obligation, and referent) were associated with ego-resiliency and, in turn, depressive problems in Latino adolescents across two time points (N = 123, mean age = 11.53). Results indicated that supportive familism was associated positively with ego-resiliency and negatively with depressive problems. Ego-resiliency negatively predicted depressive problems across time, controlling for prior levels, suggesting that ego-resiliency may have long-term effects on depressive problems in Latino youth.
