The book examines the relationship between academic resilience (defined as the ability to effectively deal with setbacks, stress, or pressure in an academic setting) and the experiences of US students served by TRIO intervention programs (federally funded programs) that serve low-income/first-generation students. Based on a sample of 106, a mixed-methods approach was used to analyze responses from participants who responded to a 27 item Likert-type scale (1-5) College Resilience Questionnaire (CRQ) that had been posted online (Survey Monkey).
