The present report describes the motivation for the Michigan Twin Neurogenetic Study (MTwiNS), which seeks to illuminate the underlying biological mechanisms through which familial and community factors support resilience (i.e., adaptive competence in the face of adversity) in youth exposed to neighborhood disadvantage. To accomplish these goals, we must first understand how resilience manifests in this cohort. The current study uncovers evidence of three domains of youth resilience: psychiatric health, social engagement, and scholastic success. Although all three domains were relatively stable across a one-to-two year period, some change was observed. Additionally, although resilience in one domain was quite common, resilience across all three domains was less common. Finally, we show substantial variability in resilience within and across families, with large co-twin discordances that can be leveraged in future analyses that examine promotive contexts that are environmental in origin.
