    Author: Garmezy N, Masten AS, Tellegen A.
    Journal: Child Dev; 1984 Feb; 55(1):97-111. PubMed ID: 6705637.
    Abstract:
    This article discusses the building blocks for a developmental psychopathology, focusing on studies of risk, competence, and protective factors. The current Project Competence studies of stress and competence are described, with particular attention to the methodology and strategies for data analysis. The authors present a 3-model approach to stress resistance in a multivariate regression framework: the compensatory, challenge, and protective factor models. These models are illustrated by selected data. In the concluding section, an evaluation of the project is offered in terms of future directions for research.
