PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL BASIS OF INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN STRESS RESILIENCE: FROM BIOLOGICAL MECHANISMS TO PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS

Abstract

This article presents the results of a study on a pressing issue in modern theoretical and clinical psychology, psychophysiology, and differential psychology: the psychophysiological basis of individual differences in stress resilience, from biological mechanisms to practical applications. The problem of stress resilience is becoming particularly relevant in modern society, where chronic psycho-emotional stress is a daily occurrence. Despite a significant number of studies on the psychological aspects of stress, the biological mechanisms underlying individual differences in the reaction to stressors remain insufficiently understood. Understanding why some people demonstrate high resilience to stress while others are more vulnerable is critically important for developing effective mental health support strategies. This study is an integrative analysis that combines approaches from differential psychology and psychophysiology for an objective assessment of the biological correlates of individual stress resilience.
