DESCRIPTION:Program: Mental Health Session: Social Connection and Communit
 y Support for Mental Health Presenter: Jiawen Long Author: Doris Chi Abst
 ract Emerging adulthood (ages 18–29) is a period of financial instability
  and shifting social roles\, making resilience—the ability to bounce back
  from stress and adversity—a critical factor in navigating life transitio
 ns. Ample research has suggested that both tangible (e.g.\, material reso
 urces) and intangible support (e.g.\, social support) are positively asso
 ciated with resilience. Meanwhile\, employment status and income are know
 n drivers of disparities in resilience\, but less is known about whether 
 other tangible economic benefits\, like employee or government benefits\,
  contribute to resilience independent of these factors. This study examin
 es economic benefits and social support as independent and synergistic pr
 edictors of resilience in emerging adults\, controlling for employment st
 atus and income. Using data from the 2023 National Wellbeing Survey\, we 
 analyzed a nationally representative sample aged 18–29\, stratified by em
 ployment status (employed N = 1200\; unemployed N = 666). Resilience was 
 assessed using the Brief Resilience Scale. Predictors included employee b
 enefits\, government benefits\, social support\, and household income as 
 a proxy of socioeconomic status (SES). Multiple regression analyses asses
 sed the effects of economic benefits and social support on resilience con
 trolling for income. Among employed individuals\, more employee benefits 
 (β = .040\, p < .001) and higher social support (β = .023\, p = .006) wer
 e significantly associated with higher resilience. However\, their effect
 s are independent\, not synergistic. Among unemployed individuals\, only 
 household income was negatively associated with higher resilience (β = -.
 026\, p = .029)\, suggesting that unemployed\, low-SES individuals may de
 velop more resilience than those who are high in SES. Neither social supp
 ort nor government assistance were significant predictors of resilience i
 n unemployed individuals. Findings confirmed the established link between
  material resources\, social support\, and resilience. For employed adult
 s\, employee benefits and social support both independently predicted hig
 her resilience. Unemployed adults who are low in SES may exhibit greater 
 resilience in the face of financial adversity than those who are high in 
 SES. Surprisingly\, government benefits have no effects on resilience reg
 ardless of employment status. These findings call for further research in
 to structural factors shaping resilience and the development of intervent
 ions that better support young adults through employment transitions.\n\n
