Since its description by E. Werner (1977), the concept of resilience has led to a wealth of studies and models in psychological and medical research. While interdisciplinary approaches with neuropsychobiology have been developed, a bridge to the concepts of resilience in the field of the humanities has not yet been built.Based on an overview and analysis of existing theories of resilience, a new, interdisciplinary definition of resilience will be developed using a structured process involving the group of experts in the research group. In particular, this development will address criticisms of formulations of resilience purely in terms of personal strength, focus on processes of endurance and the formation of powerlessness, fear and anxiety in a crisis and examine the significance of spirituality for resilience.Building on this definition, a resilience model will be developed, whose elements can be categorized as resilience factors and mechanisms. The model will then be operationalized for translation into clinical contexts and empirically tested, to check the relevance of derived categories for resilience in real life. Semi-structured interviews with patients who are undergoing psychosomatic-psychotherapeutic treatment due to a life crisis will be conducted and qualitatively analyzed. These data, together with both theoretical and empirical results from the other subprojects, will be fed back into interdisciplinary discussion within the research group and will complete the modeling process.From this model, an assessment instrument will be constructed which allows the resilience concept developed in the research group to be applied and empirically assessed in clinical and non-clinical practice. While methods of classical test construction will be used, there will be flexibility to develop additional assessment methods out of the interdisciplinary discussion, e.g. using resilience narratives. In a new sample of patients, the new assessment tool will be validated and psychometrically evaluated. One focus is on the interdisciplinary applicability in different target groups, as represented in subprojects 6-8.

自E. Werner（1977）提出的复原力概念在心理学和医学研究中产生了大量的研究和模型。虽然神经心理生物学的跨学科方法已经发展，但尚未建立通往人文领域的弹性概念的桥梁。在概述和分析现有弹性理论的基础上，将使用由研究小组专家组成的结构化过程，开发新的跨学科弹性定义。特别是，这一发展将解决纯粹从个人力量的角度来制定复原力的批评，重点是在危机中的耐力和无力感，恐惧和焦虑的形成过程，并审查精神对复原力的重要性。在此定义的基础上，将开发一个复原力模型，其要素可归类为复原力因素和机制。然后，该模型将被操作转化为临床背景和经验测试，以检查派生类别在真实的生活中的弹性的相关性。将对因生活危机而接受心身心理治疗的患者进行半结构化访谈并进行定性分析。这些数据将与其他子项目的理论和实证结果一起反馈到研究小组内部的跨学科讨论中，并完成建模过程。从这个模型中，将构建一个评估工具，使研究小组开发的弹性概念在临床和非临床实践中得到应用和实证评估。虽然将使用经典的测试构建方法，但可以灵活地从跨学科讨论中开发其他评估方法，例如使用弹性叙述。在新的患者样本中，将对新的评估工具进行验证和心理测量评估。一个重点是对不同目标群体的跨学科适用性，如分项目6-8所示。
