This study intends to assess the relationship between resilience in extremely long-lived individuals and sociodemographic, cognitive and health status variables, and significant life events. A selected sample of 48 centenarians (mean age = 100.8 years, SD = 1.2; 83.3% female) from two centenarian studies was considered. A resilience score covering five items (aging and usefulness, hopefulness, worryness, loneliness, and control) was considered. Multivariable linear regression analyses were conducted in order to identify predictors of resilience. No significant differences in the resilience score regarding sociodemographic variables or typology of significant life events were found. Our findings underscore that health perception (better) and pain (less frequent) were associated with higher levels of resilience. In being present in extremely long-lived individuals, resilience should be object of interest in further research.

非常晚期的复原力：对百岁老人的研究。

本研究旨在评估长寿个体的复原力与社会人口统计学、认知和健康状况变量以及重大生活事件之间的关系。考虑了来自两项百岁老人研究的 48 名百岁老人（平均年龄 = 100.8 岁，SD = 1.2；83.3% 为女性）的样本。考虑了涵盖五个项目（衰老和有用性、希望、担心、孤独和控制）的弹性分数。进行了多变量线性回归分析，以确定弹性的预测因素。没有发现关于社会人口变量或重大生活事件类型的弹性得分有显着差异。我们的研究结果强调，健康感知（更好）和疼痛（更少）与更高的弹性水平相关。
