Abstract: The relationship between self-resilience, social resilience, coping and resilient coping is explored. AÂ cross-sectional research design is employed. Survey respondents were recruited by panel owners in Centiment. A total of 381 entrepreneurs responded to the survey. Entrepreneurs self-identified themselves as members of each of the groups under study (White, African American and Hispanic). Results were stratified, analyzed and compared by ethnicity and gender. We found a statistically significant positive relationship between self-resilience and coping, and that coping mediates the relationship between self-resilience and resilient coping. The findings could help policymakers and community ecosystems to support the development of resiliency-related skills which could have important implications especially for those in disadvantaged circumstances.
