Academic Buoyancy Scale

Social-emotional development is increasingly viewed as a central part of schooling in order to help students develop skills that can assist them in navigating the challenges of life.

Buoyancy refers to an appraisal of one's capacity to deal with a setback. Academic buoyancy relates to all students because of the ever-present low-level challenges of everyday academic life.
