Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico on September 20, 2017. The devastation displaced many families and led to negative mental health outcomes. We use the intersection of Oyserman’s possible selves’ theory and Walsh’s family resilience theory, to aid in elucidating the process of positive familial coping within resilience among Latinx families. Nine different family units participated in an art-based intervention and subsequent focus groups in Florida in November 2018. Grounded theory guided analysis, and themes emerged using intersecting aspects of the above-mentioned theories. Understanding the impact that positive familial selves have on resilience can lead to future development of family interventions and a better understanding of how to foster resilience.

飓风玛丽亚于 2017 年 9 月 20 日袭击了波多黎各。这场破坏使许多家庭流离失所，并导致负面的心理健康结果。我们使用 Oyserman 的可能自我理论和 Walsh 的家庭复原力理论的交叉点，来帮助阐明拉丁家庭在复原力中的积极家庭应对过程。9 个不同的家庭单元于 2018 年 11 月在佛罗里达州参加了一项基于艺术的干预和随后的焦点小组。 扎根理论指导分析，并使用上述理论的交叉方面出现了主题。了解积极的家庭自我对复原力的影响可以导致家庭干预的未来发展，并更好地了解如何培养复原力。
