Trajectories of resiliency and well-being after job loss

Abstract

It should not be surprising that losing one’s job will have profound negative effects on well-being (Wanberg, 2012). Resiliency may be one set of resources an individual can use to restore well-being after being fired. However, little research has examined how individuals recover from the experience of losing one’s job. The current research, which adopted a self-regulatory, process-based conceptualization of resiliency (see King & Rothstein, 2010; McLarnon & Rothstein, 2013), focused on examining the dynamic trajectory of resiliency as it functioned in individuals who had been fired.
