Psychological resilience levels and family functioning were assessed using the Resilience Scale for Children and Adolescents (RSCA) and the Family Assessment Device (FAD) among adolescents, respectively. The relationship between psychological resilience levels and family function, and the related influencing factors were examined by Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis.Results:A total of 1 217 valid questionnaires were obtained with an effective rate of 93.6%. There were 600 boys and 617 girls, with an mean age of (14.04±2.19) years. The average score of RSCA for was (87.07±15.96) points. Univariate analysis showed that genders, ethnicities, family structures, parents′ marital status, main caregivers, parenting styles, and having negative life events were significantly associated with psychological resilience levels of adolescents (all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression showed that problem-solving ( β=6.902, P<0.001) and total family function ( β=16.764, P<0.001) were positively correlated with adolescents′ psychological resilience, while emotional response ( β=-3.869, P=0.001), emotional involvement ( β=-4.948, P=0.001), and behavioral control ( β=-6.801, P=0.002) were negatively correlated with adolescents′ psychological resilience.
