Abstract

Adolescence involves constant changes that require adaptation. In this context, it is essential to analyze the relationship between resilience and family functionality, as a healthy environment promotes overcoming adversity. The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between types of family functionality and levels of resilience in high school students at the Adventist Educational Unit AEU, afternoon shift. A quantitative approach was used, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional design and descriptive-correlational scope. The sample included 101 students in the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades of high school, selected through purposive sampling. Data were obtained using the Family Functionality Questionnaire (FF-SIL) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC 25). The results indicated that 37.6% came from dysfunctional families, 35.6% from moderately functional families, and 12.9% from functional families. With regard to resilience, 41.6% had a medium level, 29.7% had a high level, and 28.7% had a low level. A positive, significant, and moderate correlation was found between the two variables (Rho = .540; p < .001), demonstrating that greater family functionality is associated with a higher level of resilience.
