Abstract

The purpose of my research was to

identify factors that have contributed to the

development of resilience in young Māori

girls’ lives. Incorporated into this was an

exploration of their psychosocial

competence makeup, to see whether their

sense of self, sense of relationship to the

world, and ability to negotiate life events,

was unique.
