Samenvatting:

Prior research and theoretical models suggest that the current global economic crisis could have negative impacts on population mental health, although some studies show that the recession could cause positive effects too. In that context, this work aims to understand the individual, community and societal effects of the global financial crisis examining evidences from these various contradictory approaches. The analyses focus on the macrosystem, esosystem and microsystem. The focus will be on the coping strategies and resilience factors that allow some individuals to better cope in case of economic downturn.
