PROTECTIVE AND VULNERABILITY MECHANISMS

There are two approaches for studying protective and vulnerability mechanisms in resilience research – person based approach and variable based approach (see Chapter two). We used both the approaches to understand the role of meaning systems and political ideologies in fostering resilience or predicting vulnerability among adolescents in Kashmir. The person-based analysis compares groups differing in their levels of risk and resilience and the variable based analysis studies the interaction between different variables and both these approaches were aimed at investigating the moderating and mediating effects of meaning systems and political ideologies on the relation between risks, resilience and vulnerability. This chapter therefore tests various models explaining the role of religious meaning systems and political ideology (sixth objective) and it also tests the two moderating and mediating hypotheses.
