Assessing resilience involves understanding your ability to cope with and bounce back from challenging situations.
Below, we’ve created a simple assessment tool with a set of questions to help gauge your resilience levels.
Answer each question honestly, and then follow the scoring instructions at the end.
Instructions: Read each statement and rate your agreement with it on a scale of 1 to 5, where:
1 = Strongly Disagree
2 = Disagree
3 = Neutral
4 = Agree
5 = Strongly Agree

Scoring:
