The purpose of this study is to review the definition of the resilience, risk and protective factors, measures for resilience studies and the characteristics of resilient person. Block defining the resiliency as one of the personality types explains the resiliency in relation of the ego-control, whereas developmental psychopathologists accepting organizational perspectives of development define the resilience as the personal competence or capacity changing with ages. Researchers following the Block's defitution compare resilient persons with nonresilient ones, while researchers of organizational perspectives confirm risk and protective factors and concern the development of the preventive or theraputic intervention program for helping to become as resilient children. Finally the problem of defining the resiliency is discussed.
