Spirituality is important to a significant percentage of older adults, and is a primary resilience factor. We performed and evaluated interviews using qualitative analysis, with 64 participants able to address their encounters with adversity. Attendees ranged from 52 to 93 with a mean age of 74. We evaluated 46 of the 64 interviews for the purposes of this analysis, choosing participants who suggested spirituality was an essential tool for handling hardship. The researchers looked at the linkages between spirituality and resilience. The researchers looked at the linkages between spirituality and resilience. We discussed the interplay between spirituality and resilience using in-depth interviews, and the role spirituality plays in coping with adversity and hardship. A grounded study of the 46 interviews was done in theory. Key findings include the use of spirituality as a tool by the participants to foster and sustain late-life resilience in five primary areas: dependence on relationships, spiritual growth, spiritual coping, belief strength, and dedication to spiritual values and practices.
