PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 1-year follow-up

The Devereux Adult Resilience Survey (DARS) is a 23-item self-report measure assessing personal strengths and resilience. Each item is scored from 0 (Not Yet) to 2 (Almost Always), yielding a raw total score range of 0-46. In this study, subscale scores (e.g., relationships, internal beliefs, professional skills) may be combined or analyzed separately. If a composite score is used, the method of combination (e.g., summing across subscales) will be specified in the analysis plan.
