Resilience Buddy mobile app: a pocket gym for resilience

Resilience buddy mobile app: pocket gym for resilience

The Resilience Buddy mobile app, which operationalizes the Multi-System Model of Resilience, demonstrated acceptable usability in a single-arm pilot study and was associated with increased resilience (mean change 7.23; p<0.001) and reduced psychological distress (mean change -5.27; p<0.001).

The study aimed to introduce Resilience Buddy, a mobile intervention that operationalizes the Multi-System Model of Resilience, and to provide a preliminary assessment of its usability, acceptability, and pre–post changes in resilience and psychological distress. The model conceptualizes resilience not as a trait but as a process arising from the intersection of three interacting systems—the internal system, values and coping, and the external system—with three levels of need. The single-arm formative pilot study included adults who completed pre- and post-intervention assessments; the app consists of 10 freely accessible modules (one introductory self-monitoring module and nine learning modules) aligned with the model’s domains, each following a five-part structure: values, information, overcoming, taking action, and connecting. Measures included the Multi-System Model of Resilience Inventory, the 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12), and the four-item User Experience Usability Measure; changes were examined using paired t-tests (with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test for sensitivity analysis), and correlations were used to test whether changes in resilience tracked changes in distress. The analysis sample was diverse across equity-related characteristics and comprised 47 adults (mean age 24.28 years; range 19–45), most of whom identified as racialized. Usability was acceptable, overall resilience increased (mean change 7.23; p<0.001), with the greatest gains in external system domains, and distress decreased (mean change -5.27; p<0.001); greater gains in resilience were accompanied by greater reductions in distress. The authors conclude that translating a multisystem model into a structured mobile tool operationalizes resilience as a process rather than merely a trait, and note that controlled trials are needed to test efficacy and identify the most responsive domains.
