Abstract
Resilience is a concept that has captured intensified attention since COVID-19. Over decades, resilience research has been done
across diverse domains focused on stress responses to adversity. For adolescents who are undergoing a “storm and stress” phase in
transition to adulthood, everyday stresses should be managed timely and properly so that resilience is in place when needed. Within
the frameworks of attachment and resilience, the author conducted this narrative review proposing a conceptual model to discuss
adolescents’ attachment and resilience to daily stressors during and following the pandemic. Theoretical and empirical evidence
showed building relationships and regulating emotions are instrumental in nurturing adolescents’ resilience. This review may have
implications for the prevention and intervention of adolescents’ mental health during and after COVID-19, which may aid in the
transition to adulthood and later life well-being.
