Psychological resilience is a vital aspect in mental health and recovery, representing an individual’s capacity to adapt in the face of adversity. Despite its importance, measuring resilience accurately remains a challenge due to its complex, multifaceted nature. This paper explores new methods for assessing resilience, examining traditional approaches and the need for improved metrics that reflect the dynamic interaction between biological, psychological, and social factors. A comprehensive review of existing literature is followed by an analysis of emerging tools such as self-report scales, physiological measures, and digital technologies. The findings suggest that combining quantitative and qualitative data may offer a more holistic understanding of resilience. Additionally, this research highlights the implications of accurate resilience assessment for mental health interventions and recovery outcomes, with recommendations for future research to refine these tools.
