ABSTRACT
Mental health of people in India is becoming a growing concern. Most mental health problems diagnosed in adulthood begin in adolescence. In the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, the concept of resilience gained momentum and deserves special attention. Resilience is a vital skill for navigating life's ups and downs. Resilience is a major and significant asset which adolescents need to combat the adversities and the toll these stressful experiences have on their well-being and mental health. Thus, it is important to explore and understand the resilience among the adolescents. The current paper aims to study the resilience of adolescents with respect to gender, type of family and birth order. The sample comprised of 47 adolescents (13-15 years of age) of Mumbai Metropolitan Region. Data was collected using a researcher made tool. The findings revealed that resilience of adolescents does not vary on the basis of gender, type of family and birth order. Thus, it can be concluded that gender, type of family and birth order has no effect on resilience of adolescents.
