Adjustment refers to the psychological process through which an individual adapts to new or challenging situations in their life, such as a major life transition, a stressful event, or a change in their environment. This process involves coping with the stress and emotional turmoil that comes with change, and finding ways to regain a sense of stability and well-being. Research in this area explores the factors that influence how individuals cope with adversity and make successful adjustments, such as social support, resilience, coping strategies, and personality traits. Understanding the process of adjustment can help individuals and clinicians develop effective interventions to support individuals in times of change and crisis.
