Abstract

This chapter concerns hardiness training in adolescence and adulthood. In this, it covers primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention. Primary and secondary prevention emphasizes hardiness assessment and training in schools. Hardiness assessment and training in counseling emphasizes tertiary prevention. Also covered is the approach to obtaining school approval for a hardiness training course, and the validation of this approach is important in this. Hardiness assessment and training in counseling emphasizes help in overcoming conformism, vegetativeness, nihilism, and adventurousness. The specifics of this approach are covered, along with case studies.
