Abstract
The American Psychological Foundation Gold Medal Award for Impact in Psychology recognizes the work of a psychologist or group of psychologists that is impactful, innovative, and transformational. Ann S. Masten is recognized for groundbreaking and sustained research on resilience, pioneering the idea that resilience emerges from ordinary, but powerful, adaptive processes in individuals, their relationships, and contexts. For decades, Masten's work has guided theory, methods, practice, and policy focused on understanding and fostering positive adaptation to adversity in children, youth, and families. Her highly published and cited work has yielded a more accurate and hopeful picture of how adversity influences development and what can be done about it, not only through efforts to prevent or mitigate harm but also by strategies to boost resources and opportunities and mobilize ordinary but powerful protective systems.
