The study suggests that individuals with high mental resilience may enjoy longer, healthier lives, particularly highlighting that this effect is more pronounced in women.
Analyzing data from the Health and Retirement Study, researchers found that those scoring higher in mental resilience demonstrated a significantly lower risk of mortality.
Women showed a stronger correlation between mental resilience and longevity, with the highest resilience quartile being associated with 53% lower mortality risk over ten years.
While the association between mental resilience and longevity is compelling, researchers caution against interpreting it as a direct cause-and-effect relationship due to observational nature.
